Just to start off this blog, I have written 28 blogs this year! How crazy(: So many thoughts and ideas typed on my computer and saved for other people to read... which many didn't but thats okay! Writing these blogs were actually really fun and I enjoyed some of the topics a lot. Anyway back to the assignment....
I learned that my writing style changes depending on my mood and what time of day that I type it. Like if I'm having a bad day and it's night time, I tend to write shorter... plain blogs but when I'm happy than everything changes. I have written a lot on the topics that I liked and could really express in my writing. My blogs are really all about the topics and me.. I used myself in the blogs a lot and I noticed that every blog had a different feeling to them. Some would be really long and well written while others were short and not so complex.It was fun to look back and read everything that I typed. At some points I'm like... "Oh why in the world did I say it that way" or stuff like that. I also realized that towards the beginning I tried to write long blogs at times, I can't remember why but it looked kind of strange. Writing these blogs kinda reminds me back to 6th grade. In my block class everyday we would have to write a journal. Sometimes we had topics that we had to write about and others we could just write about anything. I loved that and I think that's part of the reason why I like writing these blogs, because I get that feelings of being able to say whatever I felt and no body would judge me (because they were private) and I could speak whatever was on my mind. On here I write about my own thoughts and opinions of the topics and I don't have to worry about sounding stupidif I were to say it in the class.
I loved doing the blog assignment for animal farm. That was so much fun to me, I liked looking at the videos and looking at other people's work and seeing their ideas! I really liked how mine turned out. I thought that my pyramid idea was pretty cool and fit with the image that I wanted to portray. It may look messy but hey, I did it on the computer and it took my a while to get the animals in the position I wanted them. An assignment that I really liked was when we had to write about our poem for poetry out loud. I chose Follow thy fair sun and when I was reading over what I wrote I found this, "I think that the meaning of the poem is to not let bad things in your day/life (the shadow) ruin your “sunshine” so to speak. Don’t let it bring you down even when things look their worst and nothing is going to get better. There is always something to shine down on you to brighten everything up. Don’t give up, its always worth trying and getting up stronger than before and keep going." This is something that I need to remind myself. Not to let these bumps in my road affect my whole like and futurewith the people that matter the most to me. I actually forgot that I wrote that until I reread it.
"Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save." -Will Smith. I find that quote is totally true. So many people spend a lot of time trying to find out what they want in life and who they want to become. And in their frantic search they flew right by it. This relates to the end of my blog because my blogs, being typed this year has been the year that I started thinking about my life. Now that I'm in high school I need to start thinking about my future and what I want to be. I don't know what I want to do after college, I don't know what I want to major in, I don't know what classes I want to take later on in life. My blogs have all been typed through this time period so that idea has been on my mind this whole year and sometimes has come out in my writing.
Overall this year, I'd have to say has had it's ups and downs. Good memories and bad, laughs and cries but coming out of my freshman year, I have grown stronger and know the kind of person that I am. That's all that matters (: Goodbye FRESHMAN year, hello SUMMER (:
