ALLYSON'S BLOG

Well allyson's blog is basically lacking all of the important requested information so i guess that there is nothing much to be done in that blog.

CELIA'S BLOG

Celia's blog is also an interesting one with lots of helpful tips and such to promote better teaching I didn't find a personal voice, but the rapid response time is acceptable and everything is linked so that the readers can verify the facts behind a blog. She doesn't have a lot of mistakes in her writing, and her P.O.V. is normal.

STEPHANY'S BLOG

First of all stephy's space colors are too girly lol. But on a serious note i didn't find a personal voice in there, even though the blog is very interesting and helpful, the rapid response time is not that bad i saw that she answered back in no time, she's got the ability to link so that us as readers can verify the facts behind a blogpost, she has good writing on her blog and has her own P.O.V. on certain stuff.

PERSONAL BLOG

The blog is in Spanish! It belongs to a few friends of mine, I believe there is a personal voice of a friend in there, the response is immediately, if is not in a few hours it won't take more than 24 hours, they keep updating it every week some times even 3 or 4 times per week. readers can verify the facts behind a blogpost EASILY, but as long as the writing goes some times is not that great.

OM MY FREE TIME...

Honestly I don't have much free time, but whenever i have a few hours off, I just do whatever is needed to be done at the time, if I have to run some errands I do it and such! but besides that I'm always listening to music, at work, at home doing home works (like I'm doing right now) and etc, etc.
