I’m completely convinced that blogging has opened my eyes to the world of possibilities out there. In my short time of being a “blogger,” I have learned just how important it is to write with high quality, use your time wisely, and spread your work out. It brings me great pleasure to say that in the span of eight weeks, I (barely) managed to write and publish eight posts, all varying in topic. I’m also proud to say that I have accumulated 29 comments from around the world! I never would have guessed I would build such a small, close blogging community.
My absolute favorite post I have written has got to be week four, free choice! I decided to share a nine movie-long list of my favorites. I favor this one of all the others because week four gave me a chance to take full control and express my creativity in my own way. I believe that because I chose my topic, my work came out better than it would have if someone told me what to write and restricted my creativity. I’m a huge movie fanatic and I can’t wait for my next movie post!
Throughout my blog, I generally tried to keep a theme going… Collages! (Almost) Every week, I made a collage to go along with my post through the website, BeFunky Collage Maker. I compiled aesthetically pleasing pictures from my pinterest boards that I felt fit the week’s topic and constructed collages that were 3×3. Before blogging, I was not familiar with this technique of expression. I can’t wait to continue making collages, even outside of blogging.
Thankfully, the Student Blogging Challenge is coming to an end! Don’t get me wrong, I have thoroughly enjoyed taking part in such a fun challenge and joining such a close community, however, I personally like to take the lead and don’t like being told what to write about. I prefer being independent and it is my hope that my blog becomes a little more versatile. In the future, I hope to write more movie/book reviews, continue making playlists, and share adventures/experiences.
In conclusion, I am so thankful for the opportunity to blog and to take part in the Student Blogging Challenge. I cannot wait to continue writing blog posts and to continue growing my blog. Thank you so much for tuning in this week! Come back soon!
