In addition, you also need to create the first post of "official content." In other words, DO what you say you are going to do in your first post. To turn in your blog, you must share the URL. You have two options.  #1 You can simply post the URL to your blog as a comment on this very post. Try to write a snappy sentence about your blog, followed by a complete URL. #2 Or you can create your own post. Again, try to write a snappy sentence about your blog, followed by a complete URL.

Matthew Gonzales Bio

Hey guys. My name's Matthew and I'm from good ol' Topeka, Kansas. Last year I tried to venture off to western Kansas and went to Barton Community College in Great Bend where I was on a tennis scholarship, sang in the choir, studied journalism, and became the student body Vice-President.

I also sing in the choir here at Washburn and am part of the advanced group, the Washburn Singers.

My favorite TV shows are Teen Wolf (which is number one), American Horror Story, The Fosters, Midnight Texas, The Flash, Supergirl, Riverdale, and so many more it's almost sad.

Jessica Galvin Bio

My name is Jessica Galvin. I live in Topeka Kansas, but not on campus. I'm not sure how to put a photo of me on here, and putting photos online is not really something I want to do anyways. I get pretty paranoid about disclosing personal information where anyone can get it, hence the duct-tape over my webcam. So I'll just describe my appearance, here: I am a 5 foot 1, Asian female of average weight and BMI. I have very dark eyes and straight black hair that is almost long enough for me to sit on. I don't tend to wear makeup and my attire is a T-shirt with shorts or jeans. (Now you know what I look like.) I enjoy art of all kinds and playing Magic: the Gathering (a trading card game) and D&D (a role-playing game). I like being creative and learning impractical fun facts. I love cute animals, and since cute is subjective, this includes jumping spiders, chinchillas, sugar gliders, fluffy moths, axolotls, ferrets, mice, dumbo octopi, hedgehogs, giant isopods, puppies and ki

Last year I won Honorable Mention in the KABs for best Dj Personality which was very humbling for me. I also had my own show every Thursday 6-8pm I go by the name Dj Average and choose that name because I'm just your average hip hop head who cant listen to enough music everyday. As I further my education I hope to graduate soon and move on to continue my career as a Dj Personality.

I have an AAS from JCCC in Business Administration that I received back in the stone age...2008. Full disclosure: I'm 29. So if you need wisdom about mortgages, baby sleep training or finding ways to go to bed by 9pm on a Friday night, I'm your girl. I have a flock of kids - Adelaide (3.5), William (2), and a stepson, Liam (7). I also have another baby on the way - due in March. I should note that in my early 20's I swore I would never have more than 1 child. This is a perfect example of life and how it surprises the crap out of you.  In the fictional world where I have spare time, I really enjoy photography, running, and DIY projects.  As for that change in last name, we're heading to Niagara Falls at some point to get married. In a helicopter. Over the falls. *Side note: I'm terrified of heights & flyin

Kylie Coble Bio

I love traveling, Mexican food, coffee, puppies, and Game of Thrones (my favorite characters are Daenerys and Tyrion).  My love for traveling came from growing up with a father in the military who was moving all the time.
