Cody you made this book sound much more interesting than it already was by just giving background info on the it. And to my knowledge this is pretty popular read for a lifetime book at our school.I am considering reading either this or Please Ignore Vera Dietz and it will probaly be the latter. And why are not on Facebook or Twitter what are you Amish. I will try to talk you into using either one the same way i talked you into listening to OFWGKTA.

           Pierre you are reading the Great Gatsby this was also one of the books i was planning on reading. Hey you have to read at least one classic book while doing this assignment. I thought most of your blogs had there strengths and weakness so i understand why you got the grade you receieved. I have a question and a comment for you why did you switch from Hold Me Closer Necromancer to Gatsby. And My Comment you are missing out on werewolf sex.

What I thought about my Blog

             My First blog earned a C but i believe that is because I was not focused on the assignment. I also believe I got this grade because I missed lab days during the class periods. I was happy with grade I received even though I was missing bits and pieces to my blogs. One way I can improve on this assignment is by it more seriously and not trying to cram all my blogs together on the last day. I think I understood the blogs there and the prompts very well but just lacked content wise in each blog. My best blog I think was the one that explained myself as an English student. My worst blog was probably the one where you select a song because the book i was reading Hold me Closer, Necromancer was a book that was somewhat dark but had a light and playful side made it a hard book to choose music for. In summary I did a decent job on my blog.
          The book I chose to read this quarter is The Dreamkeeper which is a collection of poems by Langston Hughes. I chose this book because I thought it was an easy book to have and relate to. I was wrong this book consists of many poems some that are easy to relate some that I am complety clueless on being able to explain them. This book I chose it because it has a wonderful selection of poems that just make think about things.
         My goals for blogging are just staying on  focused on blogging. I can do this by taking advantage of  all the days we have in the labs. Not putting off the work until the last days. Actually reading my book when I spare time. And just taking the assignments more seriously.

Nick So you randomly grabbed a book and decided to read it I like that mentality. And you rope cattle that is something I had no idea you did, besides that i'm surprised you did not mention your dislike of people taller then you, and your love of Gears of War you. Or your obsession with a certain person.

The Theme Song

Classical Connect - Free classical music onlineI chose the song Black Max by Quinn Kelsey. This I believe embodies the eerie mood in the book Hold Me Closer, Necromancer but also has that playful side with lyrics that are funny. This is seen in the book as well with just the constant present of death but just funny random occurrences in between the serious parts
