Last Blog

This semester went by so fast. It’s hard to believe that there is only three weeks left and then I will be done with my freshmen year. When I first heard that one of our assignments for English 101 was to keep a blog, I was surprised. I didn’t expect for a blog to be an assignment but I guess it makes sense because so much of our lives are revolved around technology these days. I never really had a blog before so I wasn’t really sure what I would even write about because I am not the type of person who writes a blog or keeps a journal. I thought the whole experience was kind of weird because anyone who wanted to could read what I have written. But overall, I didn’t mind this assignment. I liked that I was able to see everyone else’s point of view and to hear other people’s stories. Some of the entries were really interesting and I enjoyed reading them. Although, I found that the blog assignments were really easy to forget about because I always had so much other work to focus on so I had to make sure to remind myself to get it done before Friday. The entries were never that hard though so it did not take too long to write once I got started. One of the things that I liked about the blogs was that people in our class were able to comment and respond to what I have written and I enjoyed seeing what everyone had to say. It will also be nice to be able to look back at my blog and read about the things that I experienced during my first year away at school. Although I didn’t mind writing these blog entries, I do not think that I will continue to keep a blog or a journal. I’ve never really felt the need to keep any type of a journal and I feel that I wouldn’t have enough time to write in it on a regular basis. Overall, the blogs were an interesting assignment but I’m glad for the semester to be over and for summer to start.
