Mentor Blogs


SpaceX Blog

This blog has many qualities to it that greatly associate with my interests and hopes for my own blog.  Technology is always a fascinating subject and reading this short blog about the applications it is being used for is currently is very interesting.  While the information itself is very intriguing, I thought it was nice how they presented the information.  They wrote almost as if they were a friend trying to tell you about something cool that they had learned recently, so it assisted in its ability to catch your interest.  I hope to use this same style of "speech" in my own future blogs.



Game Development Blog
This blog is a great inside into video games and the development of them.  I personally plan on going to college for this exact occupation, so it has a perfect correlation to my future plans.  Other than that, however, the format they chose when conveying the information was perfect.  It captivates you, showing how a small change vastly changes the experience you would get when replaying the game mentioned.  The way they had done this was almost like story-telling, and I hope to integrate a similar style of writing in some of my future blogs because it takes your entire focus and leaves you with an awesome feeling a satisfaction.  This blog was so much fun reading, that it gets me more excited about my hopeful career.


Gaming Mice Blog
This blog is mainly about the specificities between different gaming mice on the market.  While it may not seem like it is mentor worthy, the reason I chose it was based on its principle.  The informative nature of it is great because it gives the reader the best sense of performance on all of the different requirements available.  So when I say that it is mentor worthy, it has next to nothing to do with the actual content of the blog, but rather how it helps the reader make a decision when given all the facts.  This informative nature will be a great tool to use if I ever write a blog about different sides of a debate so I can help the reader make a better judgment about their stance on the subject.

Tough Guise/Toxic Masculinity

     Toxic masculinity, a very prominent feature of modern American culture, has been a constant and relentless issue since its inception.  The idea that a man has to prove, through violence and anger, that he is indeed a man.  Over time, the problem in our country has gotten increasingly worse, but now is the time to truly combat this problem.       In Tough Guise 2,  Jackson Katz explains how a history of violent stories. told through folklore and film, has shaped the masculine identity of men.  These past stories have given out the idea that men have to be big and strong and "manly" to be a "real man."  The ways that these ideas are expressed, however, have consistently become more violent and full of anger.  Another compounding factor into toxic masculinity is how our society berates men, through feminine insults like "bitch", "pussy", or even just calling them a woman.  These types of insults have had a devastati...

My Top 5

      As this year progressed, and I was exposed to more and more writing styles and tasked to create writing pieces in different genres, I have learned quite a lot, like allowing myself to open up more and write about my life.  At the beginning of the year, we were tasked to write a college essay about ourselves and some event or aspect of our lives.  I have never been one to easily open up and tell my story, but using the college essay as an outlet gave me the perfect reason and opportunity to do so.  An due to the time spent on the project and the ideas we explored, I have come out a better personal writer and can bring that with me into the future.     Another thing I learned was how to not follow a basic essay format and create writing pieces in a more unstructured format.  For almost the entirety of our year, we were taught how not to use generic writing formats in trade for more freely written ones that help ideas flow more coherently....
