Have you ever smelled the delightful scent of a raising cake in the oven?

Entry #1. Types of Blogs.

Whenever the word "blog" or "blogging" appears I instantly think of a bunch of random individuals posting about their personal lives on the internet. That is clearly not the case because there are various types of blogs whether it is personal, professional, business, political, or even food. As someone who does not read blogs very often, it is best to say that I am somewhat unfamiliar with them. I appreciate that there are a wide range of subjects that targets specific audiences. Blogs can be entertaining to read once you find a topic that best suits your interest. When I do choose to read blogs, I usually gravitate towards personal because those are the blogs I encounter the most. Personal blogs are generally relatable and comprehensible for me. Out of all the recent blogs I have read, my favorite one so far is from unbravegirl. The blogger informs her readers about her past experiences of online dating, yet she was able to incorporate some comical details. From reading the blog it made me understand why online dating is not ideal for most people because there are plenty of disasters waiting around the corner. I thought the blog post was very amusing and it was truly entertaining to read. Although I can't say that I can relate to the blogger, I can see that the post is not exclusive to anyone. Another blog that I liked reading was from peopleiwanttopunchinthethroat. I have to admit that the name of the website caught my attention, but the post was completely unrelated to the website name. The post was targeted more towards parents because the author explains how she got her kids to open up to her more. She was also giving advice to parents who have trouble getting their kids to communicate with them. As a teen, I am able connect to the blog post because I can confess that I don't interact with my parents the way they want me to. Finally, my least favorite blog was from dog shaming. I didn't like the blog as much as the others because I didn't see a purpose of the post and did not understand what the author was getting at. The images were very captivating and I can see that dog lovers might be interested in reading the post, but that is about it. Reading all of these blogs has given me a better insight as to what blogs are really all about. Blogs allows people to write freely and lets people express themselves in any way they wish to do so.

Introduction

Hello! Welcome to an exclusive on Catherine's life! I'm eighteen years old and I was born and raised in Arizona. My parents are from Vietnam and I speak fluent Vietnamese. My friends would describe me as soft-spoken because I can be shy, but I am told I can be entertaining once you get to know me. I spend my leisure time hanging out with my one friend, Jordyn. I often choose the people I talk because I prefer to be alone most of the time. My number one pet peeve is when people ask me for advice and do the opposite of what I tell them. My interests includes spending time with my dogs, trying new foods, and sleeping. Becoming a college student has made appreciate sleep so much more and I think a lot of people can relate to that. I consider myself unique because I am intellectual and ambitious, but I have a hint of laziness. My current goal is to complete my prerequisites in order to enter a nursing program at GCC. After I complete that, I plan to transfer to Arizona State University (hopefully) to complete my degree. Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. I hope to hear some feedbacks from you all and I look forward to reading your blogs.
