When looking at my peer blogs, there was a particular blogger that stood out to me — Leslie. Being so unique and interesting, her blog’s title, College & Caviar, instantly caught my attention. What does this mean? Or what does Leslie mean by this? I sure didn’t know so I decided I had to keep reading.
Leslie’s blog posts might be long, but I defiantly did not get bored when reading her posts. She goes deep into her analysis on all the articles we have read in class and gives a truthful, honest reflection on them. Most importantly (or what I find most important), she is able to display her voice and humor in her blog SO well…like if I had to rank all the blogs in my class, Leslie would hands down be #1 to me because she is a blogging goddess.
In addition to her blog posts, I really enjoyed the tab she includes, Blogs I Enjoy, and You Should Too! Naturally, I clicked on the tab, just like I hope you just clicked on the hyperlink to the tab. Because if you did you will see she included two blogs: BarefootBlonde by Amber Fillerup Clark and GaryVaynerchuk by Gary Vaynerchuk.
These blogs might be very different, but I can totally see why Leslie enjoys them both. The first blog, BarefootBlonde, is much more fun and cute; while the blog, GaryVaynerchuk, is more business-y, as he blogs about business in social media.
The first blog caught my attention because of how fun it is and I enjoyed browsing and skimming it. Even though the second blog is a tad more serious/educational, I feel as though I found more interest in it. I am currently a student in the College of Arts and Sciences; however, I recently applied to transfer in to the Leavey School of Business. As an aspiring business student with very high hopes of getting accepted, I am hoping that to one day be a marketing major. In addition to that, I recently just heard back from a marketing firm in Phoenix, RIESTER, that I will be interning there this summer, yay! Anyways… Gary Vaynerchuk’s blog was intriguing to me because he focusing on his ability to create such a successful business from social media marketing, and also his recent post, The Ultimate Advice for Every 20 Year Old, was a great read too. His posts inspired me, just as I can assume they inspired Leslie. I plan on continuing to follow his posts as they are pretty beneficial to my life thus far! But for now, I am tired, sick, and ready for bed so…
