What direction will my blog be going?

 

Over my years of "surfing the web" and since starting college and this blog, I've come across a blog or two. What I've noticed with a lot of them is they happen to be a series of complaints about world issues or what's going on in the author's personal life. But others that I've read had a specific purpose. They were made to advise about a certain topic, such as health and exercise or a celebrity, or something of that sort. Other things that I’ve noticed are that some of them tend to be just a place for people to record their thoughts and opinions in an inoffensive manner. What I've decided to do for my blog this semester, is to record my thoughts, opinions, and whatever else I may write about in a friendly and reasonable manner. I wouldn't want to offend anyone, but I don't mind disagreements. I've decided my blog will basically become a diary if need be, but I certainly will not be complaining. I found it repulsive when all an author did was complain. Why would you want to read a blog like that? I'd rather read a blog with a happy mood, which is why I've decided my blog will be upbeat, and personal when it needs to be. I don’t feel like a blog should be used to criticize the whole world. I feel like it should be a creative outlet for people. After deciding the direction I wanted my blog to go in, it made me very excited to blog more. I became excited for future assignments, which sounds kind of weird, but I’ve never had to blog for school before, so that in itself is pretty exciting to me. Since I already have a personal blog, blogging for school will just be another way to get my thoughts out.
