Ten things I've learned from blogging

These are ten of the many things I've learned from blogging since I started:

As the school year starts, I thought I would share the ten most important things I have learned about blogging since I started 2 years ago:
   
    1. Use correct grammar so people understand you. Don't shorten words like you do when you text. For example, write “why” instead of “y”.
   
    2. Blogging teaches you how to type. It helps me remember to keep my fingers on the home keys. Now, I can type very fast without looking.
   
    3. When people are nice enough to comment on your blog, comment back so they will return to your blog. This creates an ongoing conversation and give both people a chance to learn more on the topic of the post.
   
    4. Write appropriate blog posts so kids are allowed on your blog. Don't post an inappropriate youtube video or parents won't let their kids return to your blog. 
   
    5. Don't write anything mean so you don't hurt feelings. If you write a blog review, only say things you like about it. Don't write, "This is the worst blog ever!".  If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything.
   
    6. Don't say your last name, or where you live, or what school you go to for internet safety. If you do that someone may be able to locate you.
   
    7. If you see someone do something wrong tell them so they can fix it to help their blog. Sometimes there are spelling mistakes.  Let them know so they can correct the post.  If your friend writes an inappropriate post, tell them to take it down, so kids are allowed on their blog.
   
    8. Don't post pictures of yourself. This is for safety reasons. You want to try to limit the amount of personal information about yourself. By not posting a picture of your face, people are not able to try to look for you. They do not need any information other than what you choose to share on your blog. It also makes the blog a little more interesting in that it creates some mystery.
   
    9. When you create posts and comments, ask questions to keep the conversation going. If you don't, it could stop the conversation. Asking and answering questions makes the blog more popular and informative.
   
    10. Add gadgets to make your blog the best it can be. If you add gadgets it makes your blog more interesting.

My 10 favorite WWE superstars: #10

I've been watching WWE for about 4 months. I'm going to write a post about every one of my ten favorites. This post will be about #10.

My 10th favorite WWE superstar is Triple H. He's 43 years old and he is trained by Killer Kowalski. He is married to Stephanie McMahon. That is Vince McMahon's daughter. Vince McMahon is the owner of WWE. He was in WCW for 1 year. Then he was in WWF for 2 or 3 years. Him and Shawn Michaels headlined DX which was short for D-Generation X. DX was the best wrestling group ever. He now still wrestles and is the COO of WWE.

The Los Angeles Clippers: Edition 2

As most of you have probably heard, the Heat won the NBA Finals on Thursday. The Clippers defeated the Memphis Grizzlies in seven games in the first round. I was at game four. The Clippers won game four in overtime to get a 3-1 series lead over the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies won games five and six only to be knocked out of the playoffs by the Clippers in game seven. In game one, the Clippers were down 27 with about eight minutes left in the fourth quarter and came back to win. The Clippers would be eliminated from the playoffs by the Spurs in the next round in four games. The Spurs would lose to the Thunder in the next round. The Heat defeated the Thunder on Thursday for the NBA championship.



My New Kindle

A few weeks ago, my parents bought me a kindle because we went to Hawaii. It was a very early birthday present. (My birthday is not until August 15) I have been getting books from the Los Angeles Library on there. They have a program where I can get on waitlists on my Ipad2 or computer and when I'm up, read it on my Kindle.

So far I've read 2 books on my Kindle. The books were Heat and The Batboy. Right now I'm reading Book 1 of The Ranger's Apprentice Series. It's called the Ruins of Gorlan. The only problem is that if you don't finish it in 3 weeks, you lose it and have to get back on the waitlist to finish it. Because it took me awhile to finish The Batboy, I have 3 days to finish The Ruins of Gorlan and still am only about 30% done. It does not show you the page, but it shows you the percentage of how much you've read.

Do you have a kindle?

Do you use a library?

Book Review: Catching Fire

Here is my review on book 2 of The Hunger Games, Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins:

      At the start of Catching Fire, they talk a lot about Katniss and Peeta's lives in Victors Village. That is where the winners of the Hunger Games live. Katniss' only neighbors were Peeta and Haymitch. Then, President Snow makes an announcement. The victors will compete against each other in the Quarter Quell. Next, they got new peacekeepers. Peacekeepers were the people who made sure that all citizens of Panem follow the rules of the Capitol. The new head peacekeeper whipped Gale because he found out about Gale hunting illegally. He almost bled to death from the whipping.

      Most of the arena was water. Instead of the weapons and supplies being in the Cornucopia like usual, they were in a pile on a mountain. Katniss was allies with Peeta, Finnick, and Mags. There was a force field in the arena. Peeta ran into it. He was dead for awhile. Then, Finnick brought Peeta back to life with mouth to mouth. Next, a deadly fog came. Katniss and Finnick could not carry both Mags and Peeta, so Mags ran into the fog to death. Later in the games, they added Johanna, Wiress, and Beetee to their alliance. Wiress realized that the arena was a clock. There was the fog, the big wave, the monkey attack, and other things that happened at the same time every day. Then Wiress died. After that, Peeta, Katniss, Finnick, Beetee, Johanna, Enobaria, and Brutus were rescued by Plutarch and Haymitch. Then, the part that happened at the end shocked me, especially the last sentence. Peeta and some of the others were captured by the Capitol. In the last sentence, Gale said, "There is no more District 12" to Katniss.

      I rate this book an A+ and it is by far the best book of the three in the Hunger Games trilogy.

The Hunger Games: Movie Review

Last weekend I saw the Hunger Games. It is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is based on the book trilogy. This is about the first book. That is the book that I'm reading right now. I'm about halfway done with it.

Here is my review:

The Hunger Games is about a country called Panem. There are twelve districts. The thirteenth was destroyed. Because of the war that made the districts, they made the Hunger Games for revenge. Prim Everdeem was called to be in the Hunger Games as the girl. Each district has to have a raffle for who will be in it unless someone volunteers. No one wants to be in it. You have to be 12-18 years old to be in the raffle. Because Katniss Everdeem does not want her sister in it she volunteers. The boy who is chosen is Peeta Mellark.

They have a mentor, Haymitch. He won it a long time ago. He is one of the only two people ever who have won for District 12. Also, they have someone named Effie who doesn't do that much to help them. They also have stylists. Katniss' is named Cinna. Peeta's is named Portia. Peeta has had a crush on her for a long time. Find out what happens in the games by reading the books or seeing the movie.

Here is a list of the most important characters:

1. Katniss

2. Peeta

3. Haymitch

4. Cinna

5. Effie

6. Prim

7. Gale

8. Rue

9. Prim and Katniss' mother

10. Cato

11. Portia

I give this movie an A+ and recommend that you read the book and watch the movie.
