Hey, you, there- with the ideas… come closer.

Hey Cobras, this is Daylin.

Believe it or not: your comments are not only for grades. They’re read. Every single one of them. By me. Not by choice, mind you. I have to read every comment before approving them to be on the site. I’ll admit, if it’s longer than 3 sentences I might just skim it. But it still counts as reading. And I’ve noticed the trends: the blog is nice, I want the old blog, the website needs to be updated, I want more posts, blah blah blah.

I have no power over the website. Last time I tried to change it, Diaz overrode my design and brought his own back. He thinks it’s a design marvel. It’s your fault. You told him it was nice. He believed you. Thanks a lot.

I want more people blogging. Annie stepped up, and thank whatever deity you believe in she did. We had two new blogs by the time I even remembered to approve your comments. [Truly sorry about that, by the way. I heard there was some minor freakouts over your comments not showing up in weeks. Twas my bad.] But we do have sections for Sports, Weather, and Entertainment in our blogs that have NOTHING under them and NO ONE writing for them. They’re sad. Please adopt one.

NO MORE HOW’S IT LOOKING BLOG POSTS AND COMMENTS. It’s difficult to get creative with so little going on. We wake up. We go to school. We do some reports. We yell at each other. We go to the next class. I’m not thrilled about going home to blog about it. But monotony makes me want to cry. You wouldn’t want to make me cry, would you? I sit through all your comments. All 56 “the blog looks nice” ones. And the 102 “do something!” ones. I know. It seems like we’ve been on the same topic since we started this idea. Time to let go. I’ll redesign when WordPress gives me something nicer. Promise.  So let’s talk about something else from now on, okay? And that’s not your fault! There are five blog posts up and 3 of them are Opinions on the Blog. What are you going to do? Comment on porcupines? I get you. It’s more of a “to the writer” [me] than to you guys. That’s why I want people blogging on different stuff they’re already managing on the Newscast.

Help me make this interesting. Adopt a blog topic. Blog about it. They need you. We need you.

EDIT: Yes, I read the comments on my last plea for help. I am currently tracking the Walkout footage for a post. Great stuff.
