All-Star Mentor

          Thai definitely deserves to be an All Star Mentor. Not only does she write deeply, but she writes beautifully. You can tell how much what she is reading impacts her life, and how she really feels about it. She puts so much thought into each one of her posts, and really pushers herself to write more, which really inspires me. I chose this post because I felt like it was so true, and I agreed with her completely. She explained her feelings in detail, and elaborated very well! Thai has such well written posts, and will inspire anyone to go above and beyond to write a fabulous post!

           I absolutely loved Ashley's post on the song, "Speak Now". She unpacked and interpreted the song so well. We share the same passion for Taylor Swift, so it was so cool to read about how this song made someone else feel. Her theory was very smart, and something most people don't think about while listening to a song. She dug real deep to find what this song could mean. I liked her theory, because I can relate to it. Which is what writing is mostly about, being able to relate to someone else's story.

          Zarrin's post on Slam by Nick Hornby was very thought provoking! I read this book over the summer, so I liked how we had different views and opinions on this book. Another thing that I liked is how she used vocabulary words, which shows that she actually understands how to use them, and is using them to help her become a better writer. Her work is very detailed, and hardly ever goes off topic. She has such a strong voice in each of her posts, and her personality and opinions really show.
