“Blog vs. Journal: My reflection on my blog"
Home Written Stream of
Consciousness
This semester in
Journey in Literature I’ve had one of the best experiences with my writing
assignments compared to my most recent literature classes. The journal and the
blog are a great way to express one’s self in the form of creative writing. If
you enjoy writing, and like to travel or to reflect on your previous
adventures, than this is definitely the class for you! Besides the essay that
we had to write (which was a good assignment, in my opinion) the journal and
the blog have been the remainder of the work that we've done this semester.
Before I started this project I was never into creative writing, but the stress that it takes off your back is enormous. It really is a form of meditation, when you grab your laptop, and start typing away, its liberating! It's also a good way to express your feelings if you have no one to talk to, or write down good memories that you want to remember in the future. That's actually really important; this blog sort of works as your legacy, and it's the narration of your life through your own eyes, somewhat of an autobiography. I found this to be a great project, and I'm hoping to get this assigned for some of my other literature classes.
