A Glimpse Into My Life
Hello.
My name is Michaela Landers and I am currently a student at The University of Western Ontario. Writing a blog is not something that I would normally do. I am quiet and absolutely terrible at meeting new people. Yet, a part of me is eager to try something new and step out of my comfort zone for this class assignment…

Why Do I Take After My Dad In Everything But Self-Promotion?
When given the opportunity to write about a hot topic, I jumped towards an article on female self-promotion before evening considering other options. I chose to review Why Don’t Women Self-Promote As Much As Men? This article spoke to me, I knew right from the title of the article that they were talking about me…

A Deep Dive Into A Platform For Change
If given the opportunity to create a blog out of pure enjoyment I would write about environmental impacts on our oceans. After watching a documentary on Netflix called Seaspiracy, I learned how important the ocean is to our ecosystem..

“I Be Up In The Gym Just Working On My Fitness”
Over the course of this six week long course, I worked tirelessly to improve my personal fitness. Fitness is a very broad term; it consists of being physically fit and healthy. Fitness activities include but are not limited to mental acuity, cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength, flexibility and nutrition. Throughout this blog post I will discuss my goals and aspirations on my fitness journey along with areas I still aspire to improve on….
Hi Michaela, I’m Hirra. It’s nice to meet you!
I enjoyed reading your blog and getting to know you a little bit. Your sports accomplishments are amazing, and definitely something to be proud of! I hope you are selected as team captain and I wish you luck!
Your dog Finley is adorable. I also found myself very lonely during the past year, and in the past October I adopted a kitten! My cat’s name is Draco and she’s probably been the best decision I made. Pets are wonderful and while sometimes she’s a pain – especially when she wakes me up at 5:00am for breakfast – I cannot imagine life without her too.
I look forward to learning more about you!
Best,
Hirra

Hi Hirra,
Thanks for taking the time to read my post. That is so great that you found a little buddy through these lonely times too. That’s funny you mention having to get up early with her, I am totally not a morning person. However, because Finley can’t hold his pee very long I have had to start getting up at 7 each morning. I am getting used to it now but I do miss sleeping in.

Michaela I neglected to comment on the org and structure of your blog. I’m sorry! I really like the way you have laid out the photos. I’m a bit envious because I was trying to figure out how to do a background photo with text overlay and couldn’t figure it out. you seemed to do that! Is it the template you used? i like too the title of your page – Moments With Michaela. I love the alliteration. I felt the structure of your paragraphs was well organized too.

Thank you for the positive feedback. The template makes it easier but I think you are still able to add a photo background. I followed this video. It is pretty straightforward and easy to follow along to. https://youtu.be/4YpyiJ05YOg
