Entry #1 - Blogs!?!


    Before this class I just thought of blogs as vlogs just typed up, which it technically is but I guess there's more to it. I never questioned or thought about them but blogs are actually a great way to state types of interests, hobbies, and just your life. After looking through different blogs I discovered three I would like to talk about which are: TMZ, Hip-Hop Wired, and Apartment therapy. 



      Starting off I'm going to talk about TMZ. I've always seen TMZ everywhere but I never thought of it as a blog. TMZ focuses their blogs on news about celebrities lives, new things in the world occurring and things people would want to hear. In my opinion this blog isn't really helpful and I dislike it because I don't care about what "scandals" or "drama" is going on in famous people's lives.



    The second blog I read through was Hip-Hop Wired. This blog was my personal favorite because it's ALL about hip-hop music which is one of my favorite genres. This blog goes through singers and their new songs, albums features and etc. Like TMZ, HIP-Hop Wired does talk a little about the celebrities situations but ones only concerning the music. I think this blog is a good place for people to find new artists to listen to and to be updated daily on new things dropping.

    Apartment Therapy was the last blog I read and I really enjoyed the aesthetic of it. I find this blog really helpful for people who are settling into a new living space. As someone who likes to be organized and make things look straight off of Pinterest this blog helps give a lot of ideas. Apartment Therapy is very different from TMZ and Hip-Hop Wired, this blog is more the lifestyle type of information like many others out there. 



    Now that I researched and went through a few blogs, I kind of understand it. Blogging does seem like a fun hobby if you like talking about your interests and many other things. I hope y'all enjoyed my blog about blogs looking forward to read others. 😊

  1. I agree with your comments on TMZ I feel as if we are too parasocial towards celebrities lives and that it shouldn't matter what drama happened to a certain celebrity I feel as if it's too dehumanizing for them and for us too put them on such a high pedestal.

  2. I never thought of TMZ as a blog either! And I agree, TMZ seems to overstep in celebrities lives in harmful ways.

Entry #9 - Fast Food!!

 Hi guys, Welcome back!! For this blog let us go through this picture and the story it tells behind the fast food industry.                 In this picture the first thing you can notice is the plus-sized family in line at a restaurant ready to order their food. The text box shows how the man was ordering a “triple decker” but as it looks, he read the sign at the bottom that stated “16% of 10–17-year-olds obese! Kids getting fat younger”. After reading that the father of the family changed the order to “double burgers with fries” which still seems like a lot of food.  These main points all show what fast food has done to the society measuring the amount of food intake to be smaller but the amount still being a large amount. This comic also explains how normalized it is in the United States, having the whole family obese and shocked by the sign goes to show that is also how many Americans also react about that information.

Entry #4 - Fall

   Hey guys! Welcome back to my blog today let's talk about fall. Fall is one of the most comforting and aesthetic seasons. Even though we are in Arizona and fall has not fully kicked in yet, I am still ready for the season.  Even though fall is not my top favorite season, I still enjoy it because of its comfort. The way the weather starts to cool down and you can start to wear sweaters or cute fall outfits you get off of Pinterest is so exciting. I also love how the suns starts to go down sooner and you can just curl up and enjoy the not so hot weather. The smell of fall also gets to me, I LOVE the fall candles! As soon as Bath and Body Works drops the fall scents you can catch me there buying almost all the candles.       Some more reasons I love fall is the activities, we have the state fair, pumpkin patches, haunted houses, and more spooky stuff. You have many options to do many things with friends and families during fall. Another thing I love t...
