What Blogging Is To Me


So far, blogging has not been for me. I definitely do not hate it but I would personally rather spend my time doing something different. I have yet to find myself truly engaged in the blogs that I have been posted but I feel that is still partly contributed to the fact that I’m still not entirely sure what blogging is. For me, the hardest part of blogging is relating it to myself. I find myself writing it more in an essay format rather than a personal writing. I am not used to the idea of putting my unfact-checked opinion in the writing, I am always trying to base my blogs off of real ideas and opinions that I have found research on to back-up my argument but I believe that is not how blogs are supposed to be done. On the contrary, I have found writing a response to the articles very easy to accomplish. Going into making my blog I was very nervous that I was not going to be able to free write a long enough passage for my blogs but I have been able to do that with out even thinking about it. My opinion for blogs has also changed over this course and over reading the articles on blogging. I went into it thinking that blogging had no merit to writing and it was all just personal opinion. But, now that I have experienced this phenomenon called blogging, I realize that there is much more to it than just biased opinions. People who blog, blog about current events and respond to articles through it. It’s the individuals who instantly respond to your blog to criticize what you have written that keep you in check from writing outlandish things.
