THE FINALE

I never really thought about blogging ever in my life until it was brought up as an assignment for my English class.  At first I thought  I was going to hate the idea as I have never been a big fan of expressing my thoughts and opinions.  I guess you can say that it showed because after my first blog I pretty much went absent from the blogging world.  I couldn't really get into it and maybe I never would have if my teacher had not kept mentioning it in class.  I realized that I had to complete this blog even though at the time it was against my will.  I tried to talk about my college experience as I thought that would be something interesting and relatable  to not only my classmates but other college students as well.  At first I was having a hard time finding topics that I thought would work but I just went with my gut and slowly but surely started putting blogs together.  
I would spontaneously think of a blog idea and right it down whenever I had the chance but I never really started getting into blogging until later on in the process.  I actually started enjoying to blog down my ideas as my page views started increasing.  I finally started to feel that maybe people actually liked my ideas and blogs.  This allowed me to finally start becoming more confident relinquishing my thoughts to the public.  It felt good to let out how I feel and give people my own opinions and advice that had helped me and I thought could help them. I felt that I had found my audience of college students and that my blogs were interesting to this group.  I would try to think of ideas all the time now during class, or while I was eating lunch.  The idea of blogging sort of consumed me which allowed me to really enjoy it.  
My main regret blogging would have to be starting to get into so late.  I guess that it is better to start later than never.  This process has really helped me to improve my writing on a whole other level as well.  I can now spew out my thoughts on to paper which really helps me to get things out that are on my mind.  This has been one of the biggest changes in my writing because I have never been one to open up my feelings and thoughts into writing.  This was a huge opportunity for me to do so and I have never been more grateful for an English assignment in my life.  I fee like I have been able to maybe help students with my blogs which has made me feel great.  I try and stay positive which I think has reflected off onto my blogs.  I felt it easier and easier as time went on to come up with ideas and felt more confident with each blog.  I tried to incorporate pictures and websites as much as possible to spice up my blogs as well.  I haven't decided yet but I think I might keep my blog for the longevity and continue to blog even after this assignment.  I have found this blog assignment to be really helpful to me as a person and as a writer and I hope my blogs have inspired and helped some.  As always Peace and Love and thank you to my audience for being supportive.
