Honestly, I need to organize my life better, because I found that if I don't have a lot going on I really like blogging.
My blog is all about feeling getting people to feel the way I feel. From the visual layout to the topics I choose to write about, it's all to help you get inside my mind a little bit.
Visually, I really like the way I've got things set up. I am a very simple and relaxed person(that does not mean that I am unable to get stressed out of my mind), so my blog does not have lots of extra pictures or links. Also I love the background I chose, because that is my favorite sight to see when I look out a window. Every time I look at my blog I really feel like I'm all cuddled up on a rainy day. That is what I want my audience to feel as well.
Speaking of which, my audience is really just myself and this English class. I think if I were to do a blog for all of my friends and family my speech would be even less formal than it already is and I would probably include more pictures. I most likely would try to have a picture for every single blog.
As far as what I have chosen to write about, it follows the same idea as my visual layout. I have tried to write about a variety of things in my life, so that my audience gets a little taste of everything. When I write on my blog I like to write fairly similar to the way I speak, so that the audience almost gets the experience of reading my mind.
If I were to write about all the health and medical events of my life I could write dozens of blogs, but I feel that those things are more for a personal journal. The things I would write about would be too personal to me and many of them too graphic for a general audience.
When it comes to blogging I do procrastinate, but I do enjoy it and I'm grateful I had the opportunity to start it in this class. There is a sense of excitement when you are writing down your thoughts knowing that other people are going to read them. This is my first semester of school in three years, so this has been great for getting me in the habit of writing a lot and getting my opinions and feelings out of my head. I think deep down most of us truly want people to know what we are thinking, what we are going through and just more about who we are. So many people go through life afraid of what others think that they do not realize or work towards their full potential. Blogging gives us the opportunity to just say, "You know what, here I go. This is who I am, what I have been through and what I think . . . regardless of what others might say or think about me."
I have been converted to the world of blogging. I will start a different blog now and it will be very creative with different topics like"Nate Date's the States": a look inside the dates that I go on with girl from every single state. This could be really fun!
