What Goes On Around Here

 

                 If someone came up to you and asked you what weblogging was, what would you say? I would say exactly this. Weblogging is when you can have the freedom to express yourself, and write about whatever you want to! You have to be careful when you write because you could be writing in front of the whole world! At first, I was very excited about having ownership over my own weblog, and the excitement keeps building!!!

Organization, lots of details, improving details, a good lead, having good word choice, descriptive writing, having a flow in your writing, using thought provoking questions, and using vivid vocabulary are just some of the things that my fellow bloggers and I have to worry about while writing our posts.

Our instructor Mrs. Davis gives us “hand-outs” almost every time we come to our webloging class. She taught us how to use the 5 Ws. Who, what, when, where, why, and she always says that we can through in how!

                    Sometimes she will give us breaks. When I say breaks, I mean a few games on certain websites. These games are on educational websites to help us with our writing. I am loving it! Sometimes Mrs. Davis is not all fun and games, because sometimes we have to get right to work on our new posts. I am still LOVING it!!!

                     Well, its been great talking to you about the great wonders of weblogging, but I have to go write and explore!!!

                      If someone came up to you and asked you what weblogging was, what would you say? If someone came up to you and asked you what weblogging was, what would you say?

 

 

 

Four More Years

      Have you ever wanted to run for president? Have you ever wanted to give a speech in front of the whole world? Well, I have a quote from President Bush after he was re-elected.

     " I promise to take this spot in the government and make it stronger than it ever was. I will make the right choices and think about the citizens of The United States. I will bring forth justice and I will take the responsibility of making this land peaceful, and at war.Though I have said all of this, one of my priorities to have trust in the people. America has spoken and I am humbled by the confidence of the citizens."

     I have alot of faith in Bush. On November 3,2004, Senator Kerry called up Bush on the phone the morning after the election was over and told him he had won the election fair and square. Kerry just didn't have enough votes to win. Nearly 120 million voters voted on election day. That is just just under 60% of all eligible voters. In 2000 only about 105 million voted.

Bush won 51% of the popular vote and Kerry won 48.5% of the popular vote. Ralph Nader only won 1% of the popular vote (that just goes to show that not all people in the elections are liked). Out of 50 states, only 19 of them voted for Kerry. So that means that 31 of the 50 states voted for Bush, and guess what, Georgia was one of them! " ''I hope to full fill my duties" This, was said by President Bush.
