Sooooo blogging, yea, not my thing. To start off, I’m not really that much of a talker, at least not about my feelings or things that actually require a deep insightful journey or opinion. I especially don’t like talking to people I don’t know. So this completely one sided conversation I feel like I’m having with the computer is a little stressful. It just doesn’t feel right. And I know that everybody or anybody is going to read all of my post’s on my blog. And let me tell you. I don’t like it one bit. I’m the kinds of person that when I got a twitter, I got annoyed and upset when people followed me. I was perfectly happy when just my closest friends followed me so I could make cute insight jokes with them or references to something I know they would find funny. I can’t do that with a blog. I feel the same way with my blog. I feel uncomfortable and awkward trying to come up with things to say, even coming up with a subject is an ordeal for me. I’m a conversational follower, not a leader. I mean , I have pretty strong opinions of things, but 99% of the time I don’t ever tell anyone. So me trying to come up with things im comfortable talking about, things that actually make sense to people, and coming up with enough to say to people is stressful. ESPECIALLY SENSE I HAVE TO WRITE ABOUT THINGS THAT ARENT REALLY ON THE TOP OF MY “I REALLY CARE ABOUT THAT” list…
Hahahaha you're funny! I think because we're seniors we're at this point where we don't care about a lot of school related stuff anymore. Also, I'm not a huge fan of blogging because half the time I have no clue what to write about and so my blog turns into a "listen to Kim ramble" page that makes sense to no one unless you're me...which no one is. Therefore I concur with your anti English-related blog blogging schpeel (or however you spell that word).
ReplyDeleteI understand your perspective. However, I think we can learn a lot from each other and I'm hoping blogs are a good way of exposing the voices that sometimes get overlooked in class. Plus, it's always good practice to spend time putting your thoughts into physical form, especially when you don't have a specific, assigned topic. You never know what might pop up.
ReplyDeleteOh, and, Kim, it's "spiel." :-)
