Entry #0

Blogs. Quick and concise or dragged out and dull? Blogs can certainly make or break a topic you're interested in, some have an easier reading format while some can be completely overwhelming! Blogs can be about anything and everything, whatever the writers heart contents, They can be informative, opinionated, and everything in-between. In this entry, I will be comparing and contrasting two different blogs that I have read through.

The first blog being Whiskey of the Week where our writer tries a new whiskey every week for a year, I enjoyed this blog because it's a quick and to the point entry, all while maintaining a good grip on the reader. They try every type of whiskey, bourbon, scotch etc. even from all different regions. It's a very easy blog to read with a clear and concise topic without dragging on with unimportant information.

The second blog entry I read was Best Islands to Tavel in Greece The writer takes you on a journey through the different Greek Islands. While informative and well organized, I found it to be a bit too long and just didn't quite catch my attention considering I love to travel, and explore new places. I did enjoy the abundance of photos that they added to it which helped break up the different Islands and City's.

Both entries were great and had an abundance of information, Although I did prefer the Whiskey of the week one a bit more, due to it's easy, and fun to read format, The quick and concise reviews along with the photos of each said whiskey. I enjoy reading blogs that I can easily connect with in terms of topic and readability, though others may enjoy other topics and have different opinions.

    Out of all of the blogs I went through no disrespect to the others but this is hands down the most interesting one I came a crossed. I think it's a great practice entry.

Blog #10 - Alaska adventures

                                                                                My Fairbanks Favorites and Beyond! There’s truly no place like Alaska. I had the incredible opportunity to live in Fairbanks for a few years, and I can tell you firsthand it’s a state like no other. Whether you’re chasing the midnight sun in summer or watching the northern lights dance across a dark winter sky, Alaska offers unforgettable experiences all year round. Here are a few ideas if you’re planning the ultimate Alaskan vacation! One spot that will always stand out to me is HooDoo Brewing Company. If you’re in Fairbanks, it’s an absolute MUST visit. It’s the kind of place where the beer is strong, the drinks are cheap, and the atmosphere is always buzzing with fu...

Blog# 09 Just Because It’s Real Cheese Doesn’t Make It a Salad

Image
In N Out Instagram Ad   It’s 2025, and let’s be honest, everyone’s thinking more about their health. Whether it’s trying new diets, hitting the gym, or just attempting to eat less junk, health is definitely trending. So when I saw this fast food ad talking about how “natural” and “fresh” their burger is, I had to laugh a little. They’re calling out things like fresh lettuce, real cheese, and no preservatives like it suddenly makes their burger healthy. It’s what people are calling “Health washing” basically slapping health terms onto something that’s still not actually good for you. The ad also leans hard into nostalgia. They make a big deal about how their house sauce hasn’t changed since 1948, and how their burger is “classic” and “simple.” It’s smart, because it taps into that whole vintage, authentic vibe that people love right now. But let’s be real. just because something hasn’t changed in 60+ years doesn’t mean it’s suddenly healthy. It might not be full of fake ingredients...

Entry #01 Music heals the soul.

Hello fellow bloggers! My name is Paul. and I have many interests and hobbies, whether it be cooking, going out and trying new restaurants, hunting/fishing, going to concert, trying to find the next best pizza in Phoenix (That'll be my next blog!)  My number #1 though, is music. All things music intrigue me, but I mostly enjoy playing music.       It started when I was just about 10 years old, but uncle had a tattoo of the mascot "Eddie" from the band Iron Maiden. I thought it was the coolest thing; He lent me numerous live DVD's from every type of band you can imagine. The first one that I put on was AC/DC Live from Donnington. From the very first note hit by their lead guitar player "Angus", I was hit with the bug. I wanted, no, I needed that to be me. The way he controlled the audience with a guitar, I was absolutely mind blown. For weeks afterwards, I would BEG my parents for a guitar, I started scrounging up every penny I could find to get every guitar ...
