Someone who has passed away- Week 3 Activity 2

I haven’t lost anyone close to me in my life, so I plan to write about kids who have unfortunately passed around my age. As you probably already know, many, many, many kids are being bullied today and it has turned into an unsafe and dangerous issue in our society. Sadly, this problem has caused lots of young kids to get themselves into stages of depression, anxiety, insecurity, and eventually committing suicide. It is absolutely heartbreaking and devastating for me to hear how horribly bullying has affected these poor kids lives and that they had to end their own life, because they were suffering so much. The ages of these kids ranged from about ten to twenty and 1000’s of them already passed away. Even though the situations many children were put into were unfair, but it’s still good to know that all these victims are in a better place where they are much happier. bull

Widget- Week 3 Activity 4

I specifically chose to add the “Google Search” widget to my main sidebar, because I understand the struggle of always being interested in new topics and going straight to Google to learn more about new things. Therefore, by having a “Google Search” widget, all the visitors that join my blog also have the option to click a button that quickly transfers them to the Google Search Bar to help their knowledge and fascination reach the stars!

Using Images- Week 3 Activity 5

What I’ve learnt about using pictures in my blog is that they not only engage readers much more in your writing, but they also add a huge amount of depth and interest in your posts! Images can allow your visitors and many students to understand your thoughts and ideas when they have a visual to refer to and observe. I also learned how much more attracted I am to the different posts with images, because like I said before, it just makes the arrangement of the post a lot more interesting and likable. Using pictures is a great option in blogging for bringing more readers to see your work and enjoy the intriguing presentation! The skill of including images in my writing will remain a method that I’ll hold onto and definitely use much more in my future blogging career!using images

Halloween Traditions- Week 4 Activity 3

I celebrate Halloween every year by going Trick-or Treating and coming back home for a scary surprise! Basically, every year I go out into a neighborhood for a couple hours with a group of friends to gather all the candy in the world. But the night only actually begins when my friends and I get back home! First, its a tradition to order Domino’s pizza and then we watch horror movies for the rest of the night. Although I’m not the biggest fan of candy or any type of sweets, I’m always up for some terrifying movies that cause me to not fall asleep for a couple days.

My Avatar

When I was creating my avatar, I was thinking deeper than just what accessories I wanted to wear, but thought about how I wanted to present myself to the whole world of bloggers. I couldn’t forget to include my long, brown hair and big, dark eyes, and my white “Vans” sneakers that I wear to school a lot. As I was making my finishing touches to my cartoon, I knew that including a soccer ball in my hands was crucial, because this sport is a huge part of my life that shaped me into the athletic and passionate person that I am today. Then, I realized it would be cool to implement some little things from real life into the avatar, so for example, I put a hat on my head, because honestly, most of time, I am wearing a hat to cover my disastrous hair on my own crazy hair days. Although my avatar is for the most part, pretty simple, I feel like it covers only the basics, so people can get to know me better through my writing instead of the little representation of my appearance.

Commenting

Commenting is one of the very special ways students ,just like us, can get involved by communicating with others, share our opinions and ideas to new voices out there, and improve our writings skills all at the same time. When you comment, you basically receive the most ideal opportunity to relate to different thoughts and interests from kids across the country or maybe even world. Even if you disagree with someone when you are constructing your comment, you can still put your own voice out there to the world for others to listen and respond back. Just like you can easily interact with kids in real life, you can also have a great time understanding new perspectives from many different people online. It is okay to change things up sometimes and have a argument with another peer, but in the most respectful and friendly way possible. For example, instead of bringing someone’s self esteem down with mean comments about their post, you can kindly disagree and explain your part. It is easy and especially fun to hear some new thoughts once in a while and have the chance to put your ideas out in the world.

Me Online vs. Offline

Even though I’m the same person, on and offline, there are still some differences from when I express myself online than in real life. Online, I might present myself more formally and in a more detailed way, because when I’m online I want to communicate in a sense that people can still get to know me well from the other side of the screen. However, when I’m offline and introducing myself to new people in real life, I’m probably more down to earth and get to know through a one on one friendly conversation. I try to really make sure people can understand the real me online by really explaining opinions and thoughts, whereas offline new students and peers can easily get to know a little bit more about me through my appearance.
