Fancy meeting you here!

Welcome to my blog! My name is Melanie Louis, but I go by Mel or Mellie most of the time. I am extremely excited about the start of this blogging process. 

A bit about me...
I am a full time high school student in Florida, I am captain of the Varsity lacrosse team, traveling is my passion and my family and friends mean everything to me.

Why I'm creating this blog...
This blog is being created to go along side a magazine I will be creating for one of my classes, AICE Media Studies. In this class we were given the option for a magazine or a film opener as our portfolio project and given the option to work in a group of up to four or individually. I have decided to work with one of my classmates, Cali Kaufman, and our final decision was made months before the start of this project, a magazine won our interests.

What to expect...
Well quite honestly I'm not really sure. This is the first writing blog I have taken part in, I have made blogs through pictures but never like this. I can promise you there will be at least 3 posts every week until the end of April. Together we will go through several ups and downs, successes and failures, I'm hoping several more successes, but ya know Sh*t happens and sometimes things go wrong.

Throughout this process I want to...

  • truly accept that its okay to fail even when working hard
  • WOW myself, teammate, teacher, and classmates with my final project
  • look back at this and be able to feel I did the best I could possibly do
  • work on being open to new ideas and not being as stubborn when I'm extremely passionate about something
  • work on my communication with my partner 
  • create an atmosphere on my blog that makes people feel good and like what they read
