What to blog about?

I would like to write about things that are different than the topics we have to write when we write essay’s. There are so many different ways a person can interpret the topics when writing in class essays. I would like to write about things that are related to incidents that happen in the real world. Maybe we could be given a topic from the newspaper, or a story that was on television, or from other sources that are accurate and serious. I would like the blogs to have topics that effect the environments and life around me and keep the essay’s to the personal side of writing.
I believe the blogs should be evaluated one by one. For me, it would make me work harder. If a bunch of our blogs are tallied up at the end I know for me I wouldn’t work as hard on the other ones. If I knew I would be getting marked on each blog I would work as hard as I could on each one of them. For a marking scale, I think a 6 point scale could work for blogs. Mark them for having correct grammar, spelling and for being on topic. But if we write a lot of blogs and they are marked individually then the percent of each one would have to be quite low.

Superpower

If I could read minds I would know everything about anyone I wanted. I could cheat on tests, I could be a perfect interigator, I would know exactly how to protect myself from someone planning to attck me. If I could read peoples minds across the world I could prevent terrorist attacks, and find out exactly where they are. If I had this superpower I would be able to steal personal info from people like credit card numbers and bank info. I could steal off the rich, and give to the poor! I could be a modern Robin Hood! If reading minds were possible, it would have to be able to be controlled. If I couldn't control it, I wouldn't have any thoughts of my own, and would also hear things that I wouldn't want to hear.
