A Look Back


Well, looks like the semester is drawing to an end. This whole blogging experience has been a bit different for me, but I learned a lot. However, I enjoyed it more than what I had originally anticipated; and, I figured out my strengths and weaknesses when it comes to writing non-fiction.

Book and movie reviews aren’t really my thing. I tend to lean more on the summary side of things, and not so much on my opinion and experience. I do enjoy writing about events and my experiences around the community. Not only do I enjoy this particular form of writing, I find it to be the most helpful to my fellow students. I noticed I received more comments of these types of posts than any of the others.

There were two posts I enjoyed writing the most: the one about learning how to decorate cupcakes and the one about all the local book stores. I had a lot of fun going to a local event and sharing what I learned about sweet treats, not to mention the free cupcake. I had no idea this was something offered in the community, so it was just as informative for me as it was for the audience.

I also had fun running around to all of my favorite book stores and looking at them in a different way. It was nice being able to share these hidden treasures with everyone. I have to be honest though, I was a little apprehensive sharing my secret havens with the world. But, I think a lot of people enjoyed learning about how many options they had for finding used books.

I’m not sure if I will continue to blog, but it’s definitely something I will keep in mind. It will have to depend on how much time I have as well as how exciting my life is.
