Blogging

Well, as you can see from the title of this post, I have a bit of an advantage on this step. The assignment was to set up a personal blog and add my "first" post. Check!

Since I created this blog several months ago and am only adding to it now, I will try to reflect on how I felt at the time I created this blog. Did I hear someone guess "panicked"? Ding-ding, Johnny!! Aren't you glad I'm so predictable when it comes to how I feel about new technology?! :)

Also in predictable fashion, however, I rose to the occasion and was pleasantly surprised to find out that blogging isn't nearly as scary or intimidating as I had originally supposed it would be. I actually (dare I say it?) ENJOY posting blog entries now. I appreciate the fact that it is a much less formal style of writing than what I traditionally have to use in school--especially as an English major. It's fun to be able to put more of my personality into a sentence without having to worry about it being judged. (If I am living in a dream world and you are currently critiquing my horrible writing, please keep me in the dark. Ignorance is bliss!!)

  2. Hey, glad to be with you in class! Great posts. Could you do me a huge favor and join my "ning" site: http://modernmedia.ning.com/. Once grades are in, I'd be fine if you didn't want to continue, but it could be fun. Thanks,
    Debra
