Blog Visits.

Today I read Desiree, Brionna, Aliccia, Jamie, and Turk's blogs. What I observed about each of their blogs were very interesting. We are all different, but can relate to each other in more ways than one way.

First and foremost, I love how everyone did their blogs. I love the different colors and pictures. They make you WANT to read the blog regardless of what the topic is. Like I said before, we are all very different, but alike in many ways. For example, Des and I both feel the overwhelming effects of our senior year. The pressure is intense and sometimes very hard to handle. With that being said, Jamie's blog about her self-improvement book and how she has her anger issues is one of the results of how I get because of the pressures of my senior year. To relieve some of these issues, Aliccia and Turk's blogs give me some ideas of relief. Aliccia's urge for danger and Turk's nifty fashion sense are both productive outlets to help release stress and have fun! Aliccia enjoys staring death straight in the eye and Turk's daring personality to cause her to wear tu-tu's to school or wear a mixture of bright colors that looks GREAT together, but I would NEVER imagine myself wearing that and I admire her for her individuality. The one blog that surprised me the most was Brionna's. I never would have imagined her to be a procrastinator or to be like me and not be confident in New Year's resolutions. I feel like I can relate to her now because she always seems to be on top of everything she needs to do when I was wrong, she has her struggles just like me.

Reading my fellow classmates' blogs has truly given me a different perspective about other individuals. It's very common to judge people by what you see, hear, or how one interprets their personality and behavior. By reading their blogs it just proves that if you dig a little deeper, you may find something you never thought would be there. Like my mom always tells me because I never find anything in my house, therefore, she has to look for it, "Brooke, you never see anything that's right in front of you unless your actually LOOKING for it," then right after she says that, she hands me the object I was looking for. Guess where it would be?! Right in front of my face! Ha ha (she hates when I do that).

Happiness is only a hairflip away!
