I absolutely loved reading your first post about who you are! It was very energetic and your passion for life and the future is very evident. It gave good insight as to what your writing style is like and it made me excited to read the rest of your blogs from the rest of the semester. After reading through them, I wanted to point out a few things to you. First, I think you have a wonderful writing style. It is both informative while also stating your opinion. This gives your opinion a lot of credibility because you have facts to back it up. In your "Girl Power" blog, you had both a movie and references to the book for your evidence, and putting your opinion at the end really left the reader thinking about having anything you want and how to achieve this. I also enjoyed your "I want it all" blog because again, you put all the information then dedicated your last paragraph to your opinion which was very well backed up.

Another thing that I like about your writing is the energy and life that you put into it. None of your posts were boring to read, and your personality definitely came out in each of them. I feel like I got to know a little more about you through every post, and I appreciated being able to enjoy reading them. I really cannot think of anything negative about your writing or posts; I feel that you put a lot of time and effort into them and because of that, have a great blog.

There were three different blog posts that stood out to me as favorites: "Finding My 'Self,'" "Heaven On Earth," and "Survey: Is Man Monogamous?" In "Finding My 'Self,'" I saw how much you described your own personality and how you try to be true to that no matter who you are around. I think that is a great quality to have, and it's even better that you recognize it and try to be true to yourself no matter what situation you are in. While reading your "Heaven on Earth" post, I did have one question: If you believe there is a higher power but do not have religion, what might this higher power be? This was an interesting post to read and left me with insight about your beliefs and the beliefs of those around you, but I was just wondering what the foundation of your beliefs are. The questions you posted for "Survey: Is Man Monogamous?" were great questions to consider, many of which I have never asked myself. This was an incredibly successful way to get people to think about their feelings on monogamy, and this was probably my favorite post of yours.

Good luck on finals and the rest of the semester, and great job on all your blog posts! You have a wonderful blog becuase of all the work you put into it.
