Blogging Articles | Question Two

I don't remember my first encounter with the internet but I do remember what I used the internet for. I used it a lot to play games on Nickelodeon or to play animal jam or y8, all those computer games that were popular back then. My relationship with the internet wasn't that different from any other types of media, such as the radio, or television. To me when I was little they all meant the exact same, I was fascinated by all of them.

Okay this one wasn't that long but I didn't know what else to say sooo yeah

Blogging Articles | Question One

Alrighty guys, here's today's assignment.


My first experience with a computer was when I was about six or seven. My cousin had a nintendo DS, and it had a cute little pet shop game with it. She let me play it one day and I was O B S E S S E D like you don't even KNOOOW. I begged my parents for years on end, but eventually gave up as nobody really cares about them anymore. My first computer I got in 5th grade, because my dad was sick and tired of me writing my stories on papers and having all these crumpled up papers around the house, so he gave me a laptop so I could write my stories on it. However I broke it, and ended up getting a new one two years ago, in eighth grade. I love my laptop, I like to stick stickers on it and watch and edit videos, and write stories. I don't really have any memories of my first one except I took it everywhere.

This is the first question I have to answer, the second and third I have to answer on seperate posts for some reason idk one post per question. Although I have like 4 mins left oops so I probably have to do them for homework :/

Guess Whose Back?

Hiya everyone, guess whose back? That didn't really seem like a long two months tbh. I feel like I was just writing my last post. But anyways, here is my first post of the year.

This post is supposed to be about a type of media I think is good for the environment and a type of media I think is bad for the environment, so lets jump right into this so I don't get a missing assignment alert ;)

A media I find helpful to my own life is probably my phone. I know probably the entire class is doing this, but its true. I use my phone for everything, time, weather, camera, news, google, social media, entertainment, even eating if I don't know what to eat/drink. I think it is a very helpful media product, and I think a lot of other people enjoy it as well. Many people set alarms on their phone, keep their planner/agenda on their phone, many people's whole lives are stored in their phone. It does especially annoy me when people say "My phone is my life" noooooooooo your life is your life, your phone is just a helpful tool that helps you succeed in life. I don't like it when people surround their life with their phone, it is good to get up and do stuff away from your phone once and a while.

A type of media I find is unhealthy is, believe it or not, still my phone. Yes it is a very helpful piece of technology, but many people absorb their entire lives into their phone. But phones can also do a lot of damage. People stay up late at night staring at their phone screen in the dark, which is very damaging to your eyes and health. People sleep with their phone, which is also damaging to health. Many people are addicted to their phones, and it affects their daily life, such as when people use their phones while driving, or when their walking which is very dangerous to you're and someone else's life. I don't think phones are a bad thing or should be removed from society, but I think people should learn that their phone shouldn't control their life, and people should know when to take a break and when to not.

Mystery Book / Story Review :)

We only have like 4 more class days o m g and I think this is gonna be my last blog post :(
ANYWAY so I finished my mystery story and the ending was kinda bad but I didn't have any other ideas for it so oops.
Anyway I'm supposed to be talking about my mystery story and the mystery book we were reading. I'm gonna start with my mystery story first.
So I titled it 'Murder in Manhattan' even though that's probably a book title anyways so I hope I don't get copyrighted :O I think it was maybe one of the best pieces I've written all year tbh. I liked the imagery and suspense I used but towards the end it kind of turned out weird. I feel like the ending was a bit cliche but idk man I mean that's just my opinion on it. I was happy how creative I was with the names of characters ayee they turned out awesome :D

So the mystery book we were reading is called And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. It was actually a good book with an odd little poem at the beginning describing how 10 little soldiers or something and ways that they died, and it turns out IT WAS DESCRIBING THE PEOPLE IN THE BOOK OMG I didn't even realize it until the first dude died I was shook. Overall it was a good book with a lot of mystery in it but its a mystery book so ig that makes sense XD okay I'm gonna wrap this up now because I have nothing else to say and I also have to work on my portfolio :) This is my last blog post until September but I might post something now and then :D any who see ya in September
(I actually don't know who I'm talking to since nobody reads this :l)

Mystery Elements

Alrighty kids so here is a weekly (semi weekly?) blog post. Today I'm going to be discussing some elements found in the mystery genre.

Sooo one element that is almost always in mystery is a detective. I mean, who else is gonna solve who killed the manager of the gas station that sells hot sausages, who was actually a spy.
Another element is obviously clues. I mean, detectives need clues. For instance, they try to find the killer, and while they are searching the gas station they find a hair or a small meaningless object such as a lipstick or a pencil that belonged to them. Or if they're lucky an ID but I don't think a killer is dumb enough to bring that.

Personally I like this genre I think its interesting. Its probably in my top 5 favorite genres (Comedy is first no doubt) Its cool and mysterious (duh)

I have watched a lot of mystery shows, like Get Smart which is a spy show. I haven't seen any mystery movies, besides To Kill a Mockingbird which kind of deals with mystery but its not classified in that category.

So yeah better get to thinking of an idea for a mystery book so gotta blast!

Fantasy Assignment Review

So our class had a fantasy story assignment and of course I had to make some big idea so I didn't even finish it (but I'm close I have like a paragraph or two left) but I do like how it turned out. Some things I had to cancel out because they didn't make sense but otherwise I did like the assignment, even though I don't like fantasy books. It was fun to look up a bunch of interesting words and things to help with my story so there's some points. I lowkey slacked off some because I thought I'd be able to finish it, which I almost did, but that was not smart because a lot of people finished before me and woops.
Furthermore (hey look i used a smart word) I did like this project, and I thought it was really fun.

Fantasy Sightings

Alrighty folks now today's assignment is to write about some fantasy films/TV shows you've seen about fantasy. Well I've seen several films, but not many TV shows, so I'm just going to describe the movies since I cant remember any TV shows anyhow. One fantasy movie I remember is The Wizard of Oz that movie terrified me. I was so scared of tornado's (I still am) and the wicked witch of the west just scared me overall.  I also watched the movie, Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nymph and that was a really good movie. I liked how they portrayed Mrs. Frisby's struggle on how she had to find a way to keep her and her family safe without somehow killing her son. I have also read many fantasy books too, like the Harry Potter series (even though it was only one book) and The Lord of the Rings (also one book). I really can't remember anymore, so I'm gonna end it here and pray all this counts.
