Blog Assignment 2

For Essay one I will be writing about Nostradamus. I have watch many shows on him on the history channel and find him to be very interesting. Here are some of the sites I found that I may use to write my paper.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nostradamus
This is site was very helpful. It was basically a biography of his life.

http://www.evangelicaloutreach.org/nostradamus.htm
I found this site to be very interesting. It told about Nostradamus's predictions and prophecies. This site raised questions about if he really predicted the JFK assassination and Hitler. It also talked about him being "demon possessed". I think this site will be use full.

http://www.nostradamus.org/
This site basically had the same information as the first, information on his life and his works. It could be useful as well.

http://www.nostradamus-repository.org/
This site was basically a time line of his life.

This site was biographical. It had most of the same information as the other sites.

Blog Assignment - The Paranormal

I believe reading and writing about the paranormal will be exciting. I love to watch shows on ghosts, haunted houses, and psychics. This theme is a very interesting twist to an English class, especially since, honestly I really don't like to read that much. It will be great to read about something as interesting as the paranormal! I'm sure it will really grab my attention!

I believe in some areas of the paranormal and some I'm not so sure about, for example UFOs and aliens, if there was really life on another planet why haven't they found us yet, or have they? I anticipate learning more about reincarnation and astrology. I always thought the term "Paranormal" only referred to ghosts, until I read the documentation for this assignment. I believe that there are ghosts and haunted houses. I also, believe there are some people out there that are psychic and can tell you what is about happen. I think there are angels among us as well. I'm very excited to read and write about this topic.

I look forward to writing about the paranormal, especially live after death and near death experience. There are so many subjects you could write about under this topic. It will be very exciting.
