Today is the third to last meeting of Blog It! I feel conflicted. I dunno why. I have five students today. Hopefully all of them blog. I will be watching them o_o It has occured to me that there are many debatable topics in the world and that all of my students have an opinion on them. It is very interesting. And also this group of kids together is so unique. So I'm excited for my summer to start. I'm looking forward to relaxing and spending time with my family.

This past Saturday, I attended an anime convention with nine of my Anime club students. It was an interesting experience. It proved to be much different than my usual con experience but it was fun nonetheless.

I got there around 11, got my badge in under five minutes and met up with my group. They split up into little groups, chaperoned by an adult. This con only required a dollar donation as well.

The artists' alley and dealer's room was pretty awesome. Jewerly, phone charms, food, clothing, candles and other fun things were featured. I found whatever I was looking for. I bought a phone charm in the shape of a cake, a bracelet made from bottle tabs and buttons, and two candles named after My Little Ponies, Rarity and Apple Jack in the scents of perfume and apple cider respectively.

The candles are made out of soy wax, which means that they're great for the environment and the wonderful smells carry further.

I attended a variety of panels but I only remember attending the Masquerade and this one panel about roleplay that was really boring.

The cosplay there at the con was okay but nothing large scale. Youmacon was also promoting at the con, so I was glad to see my native con showing love. Anyway, great experience, can't wait to go to more cons this year.

School's Back in Session!

Oh my goodness, haven't blogged in so long. Today there are three students working on their blogs, which makes me happy. Recently, I've been taking a course on how to monetize a blog effectively. Right now, I'm writing a blog centered around Kpop featuring the 1-10-100 rule. You write your home page, then 10 menu pages, then 10 pages under each menu page. Its kinda exciting but I just finished writing my homepage and my first menu page. It can take so long but at the same time, its great because I'm passionate about Korean music. Anyway, blogging is great and I look forward to following more blogs and getting followers.

Computers are Special...

So I'm a bit upset. It seems that last week all the students could access their blogs easily, but this week, they can't view their blogs; it makes me sad. But I guess it's good that we can blog at all. Speech is a privilege not a necessity! It is these kinds of things that we take for granted every day. Anyways, today is the last day that we'll be having club activities for the next two weeks. While I'm looking forward to the two weeks off, I know that I'll miss running clubs, especially Anime Club. Next time we meet, I hope to blog about the delicious foods we'll be eating over break. I hope everyone has a great two weeks off!

Hi all! This is Anissa, your blogging guide from now on. Please feel free to post whatever you're thinking on your blog. However there are some guidelines.

1) No profanity.
2) No degradation of fellow bloggers.
3) If you choose to write about people in your life in a negative manner, do not mention names.
4) Try to remain positive with your message, even if it appears dismal.
5) Blog without inhibition.

Hope you enjoy this new club :]
