So the year is wrapping up and that thought goes through me head: blogs.
As we started junior theme I was told that we should be doing a blog about junior theme now, and somehow that translated to the fact that we didn't need to do as many blogs, even though I knew I was wrong. As the month of April continued on I was the most busy I'd been in a long time. Junior theme, plus busy in other classes, plus lots and lots of skating going on. After forgetting one week, the pattern went on. It saddens me because I really liked blogging, and I wish I had been a better student and remembered, however I was not, and I am very sorry for that.
So I guess my favorite blog is my most recent. Yes it is really the only real blog I have, but I still like it a lot. When I started writing it I didn't realize the depth I would go and as I was writing and researching it was fun for me to do that research and learn and connect it to ideas we have talked about throughout the year.
Blogging this year has been a fun new experience. I've never kept a constant blog before and it really taught me consistancy and focus, or at least how much is needed. I felt myself listening to the news more, and critically thinking about the world around me, even as my consistancy in blogging went downhill. I'm really glad we did blogging this year, because even though I myself wasn't completely able to keep up, I know many people were and I still learned from it and had a lot of fun.
PHEW. I think that was longest "favorite blog post" ever.
**Project 365 Edition: Freshman Year in College. Starting 8/20/2011**
This blog was originally a blog devoted to a great high school class of mine, but I've decided to transform it into a Project 365 blog (a photo blog where you post a picture everyday for a year). I fell in love with the layout of crayons and cuteness (and wasn't savvy enough to redo it) that I'm just staying here! My teachers may very well still get notifications when I post, but whatever. If so, hi Bolos and O'Connor! :P Feel free to un-link yourself if you get bored/annoyed of me...
I'm not sure how keeping up with the daily posts will work for me (especially seeing my track record of weekly posts in that class) but I thought it would be a neat idea to at least get a feeling of the first year of college, of freshman year. Making new friends, new habits, and living a new life. Also apparently being corny as hell. Maybe this new life can include actually posting each day. Probably not. Let's cross our fingers for me?
