Over the semester I feel like my writing has improved greatly. I started off my earlier blog posts with blogs that were very hard to understand and very unorganized, but as the posts went on I found that the organization, thesis, and examples of my blogs were getting better.
In my blog," Is All of this Just a Big Waste of Time ?", I felt like the thesis of this blog was very up front and got a readers attention. I started the post off by asking a lot of questions that would pull readers into my blog and actually make them interact or become interested in what they were reading. I used personal experiences about what I thought about college to give the reader a feel of what I have experienced already and examples of why I feel the way I do. I stated, " That students always hear about how great college is, and all of the things they have to do to actually get a college degree." College is actually a test of endurance; a way to see if you are actually fit for the whole lifestyle of school and working.
Also in, " Is College Worth it ? ", I gave personal examples of the way college has effected my life as a whole. I talked about all of the things I have been through so far, and also all of the things my family has been through since I've been here. I used strong examples of why I think college is very much worth the experience. I started off the post by stating, " Do you want to make something of yourself ?", because it was a question that I ask myself all the time and most days that's what gets me through. College is great, I can't lie, but there's also a lot of work that goes into it and sometimes I question myself.
In, " Why College ? ", I explained why I thought it was a good choice for me to decide to come to college. College wasn't something that I really wanted to do, but I knew it was something that I had to do. I stated in this post, " That after I saw the look on my Mother's face when I graduated high school it was a "no-brainer" that I was going to come to college". My main focus then was just to make my mother proud of the things I was doing because I was her first child to graduate high school. I think these personal examples gave the reader a sense of who I really was, and many of them could relate.
