If you have had a blog in the past, your own, or for another class, then I challenge you to examine, question and analyze your experience with having a blog. Consider why you had one, how it made you feel, and how you manipulated the security settings for your own sense of security. Consider changes you may make. Consider how writing a blog may have helped or hindered your writing ability

When first getting a blog I was deeply excited for having one. I had been thinking of getting on online system to express mythought in the form of poems, letters, ideas, etc. I was so thrilled to know that my english professor had us create our own that i wrote an entry even before we were assigned one. But as the semester when on, i got consumed with so many other assignments and activities that i started to loose interest in the blog. I couldn't really concentrate or come with meaty contents for my journal entries. I became dissapointed because i thought i was getting a bit rusty in writing my own thoughts.

This semester i plan on managing time better in general. Dwelling into my assignments will allow me to connect with them easier. The security setting on my blog is now changed to "Anybody" can read my blog instead of just the students in my fig. I do hope students start to comment on each others blog, everyone has a lot to say if they take this journal writing seriously.

Time management you can say is one of my "New Year Resolutions."
