blog, blog.

       Of all the blogs I've read this week, I have to say Hannah Seitz, yours really rocked. I personally thought it fulfilled my standards of a blog. It was everything between funny, nice, engaging, organized, true, and smart! Within the first words I read upon finding your blog, I was engaged. "Lets pretend there's no character limit" 

It gives off an inviting feel and it sets a sort of standard for your blog itself; a place without a character limit, a zone where you can be as imaginative as you want. Writing with freedom.

       Reading this blog, was so interesting and hilarious. You have this original personality-like quality that flows perfectly into your writing. Although I did not have time to read all your posts, (considering I was also checking out other blogs) but I loved the ones I read like the Our Town post, and especially the John Green post. It actually felt like I was talking to you in a way. I also like the way you structured it. Where the blog started out as sort of a John Green rant about his book, the school board...blah, blah, blah interesting I don't want to get into details just yet. And then the video ended and I was like, okay... what is this five paragraph essay-like thing you've got beneath it? So I read it, and find a whole other meaning to Looking For Alaska. I had completely missed that whole entire concept behind the contrasted scenes. Anyway, I really thought there was a lot in that post, more than I saw in any other cover/ summary of Looking For Alaska. You basically talked about everything important in that book, and everything that stood out to me as striking and put it into a paragraph.

             Another post I loved was your Shakespeare post. It is a coincidence that we are doing Shakespeare in drama, a little in science and just started it in English. When we read this in class, we had the exact same interpretation. It's practically like you stole the words out of Ms. Rear's mouth. My favorite part of this post however was when you talked about Shakespeare talking about how people I love see their lovers.

-I know I’m sort of getting a little confusing but stay with me...

In this poem, Shakespeare talks about looking at someone and seeing an angle, the best thing in the world, a god, something beautiful. However, all there really is, all anything can really be is normal. Nothing is perfect. Nothing actually shines like the sun. But I love how true that is. Some people look at others like they are actually a summer’s day. They can get so caught up in their love. I love the philosophical thinking behind this blog because it's really good, (insert cool word like sterling) clear, and funny. I love the sense of humor in these blogs and how honest it is at the same time. "Although you may be telling yourself that you are waiting for a certain type of person, and you don't want to be with anyone else until you find that person, your potential love is not always that person. A person that you'd be perfectly happy with, and possibly even be in love with, is right in front of you, no matter how imperfect they may seem. Oh dear, did I just write a cheesy teenage-girl-esque interpretation of love? *Mental Slap*"

                  Anyway, I just really love Hannah’s blog and ^ that up there is her address thing a ma bobber that if inserted correctly into your little white box at the top of your computer screen where there should be a bunch of words like "http://blogger.com/post-eladlkerjgmfdvkd" you will find her. 

                 This is also another blogger that I thought was pretty amazing, I know I’m only supposed to talk about one blogger, but as long as I'm on the subject, I figure Tomin should be acknowledged for his work . . .

I love the way he words his sentences. It's just enough Tomin complexity where you think about and savor each phrase, but not enough that it distracts you from what his point of what he is saying is. His words are crunchy, and full, and powerful... but they are not just words take from the little thesaurus gadget most mac computers have. All his words are meaningly placed in a way where they feel natural. 

His writing has a tone that is mellow and seems as if to stride through the page. It is a pretty amazing blog so take my word and read it. Like now. Kudos to all those amazing bloggers!
