Blog Refletion-The end of the journey
All right, I'm doing this early because it's finals week and I don't want to either forget about it or be so overloaded with work and studies that my brain will be forced to shut down. Aside from that, as all things new that I experience through this university this blog journal was very strange. A place designed by me for others to see. They can see my thoughts and opinions on topics that I might never discuss with others. The whole blog construction and design thing is quite challenging and a little embarrassing but there is a certain anonymity to it, even though they can read about who I am on the front page, that allows for it to feel less discomforting. It was strange and mesmerizing how people from other countries would find my blog, for what reason I don't know, but it still made me curious what their purpose for visiting was and how the happen to stumble upon it.The comments everyone left were very nice. So, much obliged to everyone on the team for leaving such ego lifting messages. I tried using the methods recommended to leave comments and did use every one of them at least once on the older post but, I have to admit they were different to what I'm usually accustomed to when commenting on comments. I found other journals to have very creative tittles, pictures and ideas and the format was fairly easy to read, so I had little to no problem reading feedback. Nonetheless, I did feel like I was intruding into others privacy when reading their blogs, so I felt a bit embarrassed to criticize and then leave a comment on a blog post. Personally, if I were to do a blog I would like to put my heart and soul into it and since I feel I don't have the time to maintain one, I would consider making one only if I have topics to write about that interest me and if I feel I have the time all while retaining my anonymity. Overall, it was a very interesting experience and it definitely keeps one busy and makes you learn a little more about how to use your computer and help me improve my typing skills.
Here are some corny pictures with messages that I like:
Couldn't have said better myself, but I truly will try to recount my blog experience with such enthusiasm. It is a weird experience to put yourself out there, but it's a satisfying one at that. Great job, and loved the looney tunes picture haha.
I am considering starting a personal blog too, and I agree that it does take a lot of time i maybe do not have to maintain it. I did also feel a bit of an invasion of privacy in some posts but overall it was nice to express my opinion. I had a hard time following the feedback rules even from the beginning, so lord knows how that's going to go.
You're right, having a blog definitely keeps you busy and makes you learn more about how to use the computer. It is nice to see that, overall, you had a good experience with this blog activity.
