Entry #3 Mint: Something Fresh

     Hello again! I have an interesting entry for you today, I am going to be describing to you the experience I get when I eat a mint. As for the mint, I chose "Mentos Gum." Why am I going to explain and describe my experience with Mentos? Well I feel this will be a good time to work on my ability to describe how something is to show instead of telling you what how it feels exactly. I hope you all enjoy this and I hope you are able to feel the same experience I had. Maybe you'll have a mint with me after this.

    When I take a bite, I feel the crack of what feels like a hard shell of a peanut splitting into multiple pieces. The further I chew, the shell grows smaller into what now feels like tiny rocks mixed with the fresh cool air of an icy mountain that flows through my mouth and my breath. Now the feeling of tiny sharp rocks are gone, all that remains is the cold air and a soft chewy cohesive substance. I begin to feel my body relax and slip into a focused state, wanting to take deeper breaths so I can continue to feel that cold air in my throat while I work. Ever sip of water feels as if I am drinking straight from the Himalayan Mountains, sadly as I continue to chew and drink water. The cold air, slowly but surely disappears and the taste of the Himalayan Mountains are gone as well. I am filled with this feeling of satisfaction and happiness that I get to experience this feeling time and time again when I decide to have more.

   That's my experience with eating a mint, I tried my best to put my feelings into text. I am thoroughly pleased with eating mints, they provide me with a lot of enjoyment and a moment of relaxation and the ability to focus fully. I definitely do recommend you take the time to sit and enjoy a minty treat, take a moment and really feel what the mint it doing within your mouth. Ponder how it's making you feel and see if there are ways to enhance this feeling. That's all I have for you today, kind of a short one today. Take care, have fun and I hope you enjoy a mint with me!

    Hello. I enjoyed reading your blog. You took me to a place I didn't think would happen after reading your description. You used the right words to describe the feeling you get.

Blog #5 Let the Mayhem begin!

 Hello welcome back to my blog, like I mentioned in my last one. I was going to post another one today and what I have for you is a rhetorical analysis of an Allstate commercial. Specifically the Tailgater Mayhem ad . I'm going to try my best to analyze this ad and try to break it down so we can get a better understanding of what makes this ad successful and funny. Lets start off with the actor, the main lead of this ad.  The ad starts of  with a guy who is wearing a suit with blue stripes painted on his cheeks with a bandaged, he reminds me of what an 80's action star would look like. He is seen driving a car getting ready to tailgate a poor innocent person because tailgating gets him ready for football. The main actor has this charm that draws me in and I can't fully explain it, maybe its his cool and calm voice with his mischievous laugh or maybe its the joke he made in the beginning of the video. I've seen a couple of these ads and now every time I see him, I know

 Hello! Welcome back to my blog, today I decided to talk about something involving technology as it has been a while since I last talked about it. This blog will be talking about a new video game that was released a few days ago and that game is, Resident Evil 4 Remake. The original Resident Evil 4 came out in 2005 on the GameCube first then later PlayStation 2. You may be asking, what is Resident Evil? Resident Evil is a survival horror franchise made by Capcom, a company located in Japan. Resident Evil or as it is known in Japan as, Biohazard was first created in 1996 for the PlayStation. As time went on, more Resident Evil games were made as the series grew in size. Capcom wanted to innovate the Resident Evil formula for their 4th game in the series and RE4 was their testing grounds. RE4 went through a lot of changes in it's early stages in life, originally RE4 was supposed to be where you play as Tony Redgrave, a human with super strength and speed who dawned a red and black at

Blog #9: That's it! I've Come Up With a New Recipe!

Image
 Hello everyone welcome back! Like I mentioned in my Devil May Cry 3 blog I was going to post another tonight and here it is! Tonight I am going to be talking about a recipe book that I found that was entirely created by a group of fans of a game. It is the Final Fantasy XV (15) recipe book, the book contains 111 recipes straight from the game itself. You can download a free PDF file of the book at their website and it even has printing instructions if you want to have a book be made out of it. I personally would print it out to make a book because it comes with a fantastic piece of art of one of the characters Ignis!                                                                                       Source: Unofficial FFXV Community Cookbook  FFXV has a huge variety of food types that can most likely peak your interest, from things like Toasty Rice Balls, Garulessandwich, Green Soup Curry, and much much more! If you don't like the sound of the ones I have listed, I am sure ther
