So with all the work that I have done so far this semester, I have to say I think I did a pretty good job with everything. I never really was good with photography, but I really have learned a lot and think I have improved in that field. I think I did a good job capturing myself as well. In my opinion it was very difficult to reveal certain aspects of myself which is why I'm surprised I was able to do it. For instance, I was never able to really reveal to anyone about my anger issues or my fighting habits or even what is hiding deep beneath the surface. Showing that part of myself was really hard because I really don't like that side of me let alone want anyone to really know about it. I guess you can say I'm pretty ashamed of that side but being able to express it really helped me cope with it.
I have to say, writing these blogs was a stress reliever and a way that I was able to get any thoughts or emotions out knowing I really was not being judged. And if I was, I could have cared less at this point because I am more comfortable with myself after putting it all out there. The most difficult part of this was revealing the fantastic self since I don't really know how I am fantastic. I have always had a low self esteem so it was very difficult to express that side of me.
I think as time progressed, my work and writing became better and better. I learned all the features on the camera which was cool and started doing so much better with photography. It was a pain in the ass to have to constantly be writing on this thing though. When I used to use those online journals and stuff when I was younger, I'd maybe update every week or so which the entries would be longer and juicer. But I really enjoyed writing on this thing.
Therefore, in the end, if I had to grade myself, I'd give myself an A- since I worked hard trying to do everything correct, I did the assigned blog entries, and I tried new things outside of my comfort zone to bring out a creative side I never knew I had. Hopefully this is taken into consideration.

You're blogs were interesting, I'm glad you found this experience helpful, the writings were good, the most impressive thing here is that I see you made an attempt to do everything, with that said, pretty good job of this thing!

you seem so enthusiastic about the blogging and it really came through! You can see that you really had a release here. You talked about anger and blogging is a good way to get rid of that so you may have just discovered your own therapy :) the pictures were really interesting, i really didn't know you could do some of that on photoshop; the one of you and the music notes is my favorite! You really took advantage of the class and made it all worth while. You can definitely tell that you got something out of this experience!
I found your blog to be interesting as it expressed your feelings, desires, hopes and aspirations. Your writing style is similar to what Marcus Tullius Cicero commented on the writing of Julius Caesar: that your writing is stripped of all garments (flosculation and grandiloquence) and revealed the inner and true beauty of the writing. I hope you enjoyed the blog writing experience. Have a good day.
