Entry#2: The action of Listening

Hello my fierce warriors, I am back again with some fun blogging. Today I want to talk about listening. Now I know that sounds odd, but what most people do not realize is that Americans are not very good listeners. I suck at listening as well. For Example,  In a 20-minute conversation, I zoned out or stopped listening about 7 times. I did not expect this outcome because I actually think I am really listening to the person I am talking to. I try my best to be a good listener because I personally hate when people do not listen to me. I believe this is a real reflection of my listening skills overall. I seem to be listening to people while I have thousands of things on my mind at the time. I tend to think things through days at a time rather than day by day, which makes it hard to interact with others. The lack of proper listening in America, is what drives social media sites or blogs. People go to social media sites and post things because they feel like no one is listening to them o...

Entry#1: Learning About Blogs

Hello my fierce warriors, I am back again with some fun blogging. Just a few minutes ago, I stumbled across some blogs, I was reading these blogs to understand how the whole blogging thing works. I blogged for a little while prior to this one, but I am still not very good at it. I hate political blogs such as the HuffPost: www.huffingtonpost.com. I hate these types of blogs because quite frankly, I hate politics, never really been my type of thing. I don't care about what Donald Trump nor any of our ally countries are doing. They can do what they want to do while I mind my own business. I looked over the TMZ blog: www.tmz.com today as well. I quite liked the blog because I am a fan of celebrity gossip not sure why, but I have always been a fan. I love the idea that even though celebrities have all this money, they still have similar lives to us at the end of the day.

Blog Introduction ENG 102

Hello Everyone, my name is Melody Perry. I am going to be blogging with you beautiful people for awhile now. For my Melzzy's World previous blog fans, welcome back you fierce warriors and for my newcomer's, I will value our time together. I love to do all sorts of fun things, but my two favorite things to do are cooking and dancing. I invest my time into various dance styles such as hip-hop, jazz, contemporary, ballet, modern, tap (Although I am about as good at it as Donald Trump is at speaking), and belly-dancing (I am pretty good at it for someone who is about 120 pounds soaking wet). I love baking pastries. I love helping children in anyway I can because they are just so precious and innocent. They have no one to speak for them sometimes, and I understood that feeling when I was a kid. I particularly love helping foster children because I have been a foster child for most of my life, due to my mother's bad choices. My goal is to get my Associates degree in Advanced Beha...
