Independent Study 2

Log: I created a blog on tumblr, I created it on February 09 2011, and I have spent a lot of time with it. I am really proud of it, because I spent everyday or at least every other day working on it and posting stuff. 

2. Posted Evidence: http://watchwhatyouwatch.tumblr.com/ 

3. Literal:

(a) “I, Atiana P. affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.”

(b) As of February 9th, I created a blog analysing pictures just like my last independent component, but this time I commented about quotes, and saying and pictures as well.

Interpretive:

I really feel like this blog that I have created not only helped me with my component because my essential question is how can you best help a girl, and the people who are following my, I feel like I have helped them out in some way. When some one re-bloged something I post, or likes it i feel like the message I was trying to get across worked. I posted pictures about both of my answers. My blog talks about healthy living, and how to eat healthier and exercise with out over doing it. I also posted different scenarios that could happen if you were a leader of a self esteem group and girls had problem. I made a little guide to help the "leader" handle the situation. Such as, she doesn't feel comfortable around guys. Then I explain how she could go about the situation. I even put songs that I feel are inspirational songs that could make a girl feel good about her self. So i'm really proud of it.

Applied:


My blog, I believed helped my answer my EQ because I got to see how other girls blogged. For example a girls blog (http://lightestweight.tumblr.com/post/4977826739) where she talks about eating only 971 calories and then exercising 437 calories off, so for the day she got a total of 533 calories!! This is a problem, why is she striving to be so then. Plus her blog all she posts are girls who are skinny. So for my answer I choose HEALTHY LIVING instead of just exercise and eating right. The difference being their is a limit on how much exercise you should do and how you shouldn't worry about having ice cream for dessert on one night.
