Personal Addition #4

I must admit it was sort of frustrating trying to follow and comment on everyones blogs today. I really dont enjoy how its such an insane process just to "follow" someone elses blog. It's a step by step process that is really time consuming... oh, and another thing... it also takes quite a while to get the computers these days... you gotta go through 2 fire breathing dragons in order to grab a computer. (the librarians) someone should really look into finding some new ones.... sorry, but not sorry. SO FRUSTRATED.

Blogging Goal

One goal i'm going to set for myself for the upcoming week of class is to think outside the box more when it comes to my personal additions. Mostly i've just been uploading funny pictures so far that appeal to me or make me laugh really hard. I want to find more meaningful things and thinks that really speak loudly to me. For my next personal addition i'd like to find something different then a picture.. That is one of my goals for blogging this week. Until next time, XOXO gossip girl.

Writing Reflection Number One

I thought that writing the six word memoirs was a really decent assignment. It was easy to think of things and I liked how we had different topics to choose from for it. I liked writing them because it really forced me to be creative and conjoin words into a short memoir. Some pros about creating six word memoirs is that they are really straight to the core point of what the topic is. Some of them are really catchy and make you realize a whole lot about yourself or the situation that the memoir could be about. I honestly didn't run into any rough patches while writing these six word memoirs. It came really eassy and naturally to me. I thought it was a fun assignment and I liked the final results of my six word memoirs. I learnt that I dont give myself enough credit when I write things and I realize now that I need to give myself a pat on the back for some of my accomplishments in this class so far, and the most rewarding part was being able to laugh and smile at some of the ones I came up with.

Personal Addition #3

I spent my night looking at funny little clips like this and laughed pretty hard when I read this one. I feel as though not only this is a post of my own weird personal addition, I think this is a large reflection on how I go about my own life sometimes. Always trying to be positive and exciting... mean while... what really happens. Teenager problems.

Personal Addition #2

I found this to be quite amusing. I know we're supposed to ask permission to take pictures of students... but I'm sure these two won't mind too much. This is how some people chose to spend their time "reading" but, I will admit I was sound asleep like them.

Writing Reflection

So... so far my blogging experience has been pretty simple. Compared to other kids maybe a bit better actually seeing as how they're still trying to log onto their computers. The success I've had so far is pretty much staying on task and getting all the work done on time. I haven't been too creative yet and I guess that needs a little tlc. Some other success I have had so far while creating and experimenting my blogs is the ability to blog from my smart phone. God bless the apple company. I find it to be more productive to blog from my iPhone compared to the schools computers. I'm able to log on much quicker and write faster. One thing however that I'm not very fond of is the issue of not being able to edit the blogs from my phone. It is a bit of an issue for me knowing my blogs look crappy and not being able to edit them. So, another downfall I've ran into is having to log back onto a computer at some point and maybe touching them up so they can actually look nice to the eye. One thing I'd like to do as a writing project would maybe be similar to Listography. I thought it was fun to think of things that are important and interesting to think about, and being able to express that into writing really makes you think and makes things more specific.
