THANKS BLOG, BYE BLOG

Hi! I know, school is coming to an end and it is so unfortunate that I won’t be able to post to this blog very much longer. I only have two more blog posts that are required, and this is one of them. So, I’m going to continue on with the post and reflect on the questions asked. 

The first question asked is where were you when you started your blogging journey. Well, it was the beginning of my first year of high school... in a middle school. Yeah, I was still in the same school that I was in last year, but I was still slightly terrified. I mean, everything was starting to “count”, like grades. I was also a straight A student in the past, so I wasn’t too worried about my grades. But let me tell you, eighth grade did not prepare me for ninth. 

Unlike a lot of people, I was actually pretty excited to make a blog, but I did not expect it to be so time consuming. Just writing three five-hundred words posts every quarter was pretty difficult for me. I had nothing to write about. I mean, I’m just this regular teenage girl who is just trying to get through the first year of high school without messing up. At the beginning of my blogging journey I would just write a bunch of dumb posts so I could get a good grade.

Although, I wouldn’t say that I’ve changed or really grown in a result of blogging. There’s a bunch of stuff I wanted to write about, but some of it was super personal and I wasn't comfortable putting it onto a public blog, or heavens for sake having my English teacher read it, no offense Mr. Parker. But, I think that I have become more open and thoughtful about what I put onto the Internet. I talked about stuff that mattered to me (most of the time). Actually, scratch that, I only talked about me and I guess I matter to myself. Ugh I can’t do words. 

Hmmm… how else have a changed because of this blog? I’ve become more aware about what is important to me and what I spend my time writing about. I also think that I have learned how to manage my time a bit better. I know this sounds super weird, like uh, how do you learn how to manage time from a high school blog? Well, I learned to not leave my work until the last minute because trust me, I’ve tried and it’s really hard to write three five-hundred word blog posts the night before they’re due.

Actually me.

And finally, now I talk about where I am today. As of right now I am in computer technology, but I know that’s not what this question means. Right now I’m doing alright, and honestly, I’m kind of sad I don’t have the responsibility of running a blog, I mean I could in my own time, but I know that I would never keep up with it.

In conclusion, this blog was a pain in the butt but I mean, it gave me my own personal space to write about what I want and kind of just talk about stuff, you know? So, thanks blog, you made me actually think. Also, I want to give a thanks to all of my readers. Thanks for reading my posts :)
