My website proposal

My student website is going to be an overall look at things that are important in my life. I will include updates of different organizations and charities that I am involved with such as Children's Miracle Network and the Fisher House. I will also highlight my favorites in music, upcoming artists that I am enjoying, and being a movie fanatic, I will offer reviews of the latest releases that I've seen. I am very interested in entertainment in general, so the website may also touch on some television programs or series that are of interest to me. The website will just be a potpourri of my general interests and passions that I would like to share with others. I would like to keep the aesthetic of the website bright and colorful, mostly focusing on primary colors. I am a typically happy, upbeat person and would like the website to reflect that.

Bloggin' for Barack

I really enjoyed this blog because I am interested in politics, but more importantly it is fueled by students and their involvement with the Presidential Candidate, Barack Obama. In the past voter turnout among young people has been extremely low, resulting in involvement campaigns like "Vote or Die". Blogging about candidates, however, is a revolutionary way to reach young voters and keep them informed of upcoming speeches, rallies, or events that the candidate may be involved with. Check out the Students for Obama blog and get updated on the latest progress and news!
