Entry#1. Halloween Blogs

First time I heard of blogging when introduced in English 102,  I could not help but think they are time consuming πŸ˜‰ and did not understand the point of needing a blog for class. However, after reviewing different types of blogs I like the idea of conveniently sharing thoughts and ideas on so many topics. Also like the ability to incorporate content within the blogs to personalize and make it more relatable. With the holidays and festivities around the corner, blogs are great opportunity to share ideas, examples, and recommendations.

Talking about festivities, before Halloween Season πŸŽƒ ends be sure to check out Josh Ocampo's "Watch These Horror Movies if you Hate Gore", this blog includes a brief summary of the movies and why they would be a perfect flick to watch during these spooky nights. His list of horror movies include classics such as "Night of the Living dead" from 1968, to the adorable fuzzy "Gremlins" and some of these movies can be enjoyed with a partner, alone or even with your family.

DO NOT forget to review some tips and ticks to help you make this Halloween a spooky one! Emily Price gives useful ideas in "Use Alexa to Up Your Halloween Game with Spooky Tunes, Screams, and More". However, I was hoping that she was able to incorporate more out-of-the box ideas when using Alexa. She does give an idea of using Spotify or Pandora to play spooky music is a great idea because it will play variety of songs. You can check out her blog on the following link: https://lifehacker.com/use-alexa-to-up-your-halloween-game-with-spooky-tunes-1839382246

These Tips and Tricks will scare your socks off! (See what I did there? "Scare your socks... Never mindπŸ˜…) Joel Kahn not only demonstrates how to revive shriveled pumpkins, how to keep pests away, but also some other great ideas on "How to Preserve a Jack-O'-Lantern". Some of these helpful tips might actually be useful for other household ideas. Check out the link below: https://lifehacker.com/how-to-preserve-a-jack-o-lantern-1839323709
