Reflection 02/16/09

Even though I am majoring in English, I have always had trouble writing. I continue to learn better writing strategies with each paper I complete. Having a blog is a little strange to me. I have never been one to journal every day, and I still struggle with this issue now. As with writing, I am learning the benefits from writing for five minutes every night. I am not a big fan of the blogging idea yet, but I can see how helpful it is for many people. I believe that through practice and self-discipline, I will gain insight on the rewards of journaling and, possibly, blogging.

The book project is kind of fun. I could not decide what to write about, but through the help of several table members, who shall remain nameless, I have a topic. I think writing a book about coming to college as an older student will hopefully give others a look at the obstacles most non-traditional students face beyond the classroom.

  1. Agreed..blogging is new, different, and can take some time to get used to. Shoot, you may never like it, but at least you've tried it. It's like when grandma wants you to eat okra and you refuse; then she says, "Have you ever tried it?" Now you can firmly say, "Yes, I've tried blogging and it stinks!" :)
