This whole experience has been something new before because it made me actually go out and read what is going on in the world around me, stuff that I wouldn't have know about if I wasn't blogging in this network. This is a totally new experience, because I have never blogged on a network like this before, let alone blogged on anything else. It always seems to be a lot easier for me blog than to write something on a sheet of paper or word. I only kind of understand why that is either, which, I think, is because when I blog, it feels more like I am showing more of what I am interested in and I am not given anything specific to write about, which makes my life about a hundred times easier. Also it seems like you get more of the voice of the person rather than them trying to make an essay sound all professional and diplomatic. I write how I actually talk on here so makes my life easier because I don't sit here and spend more of my time trying to think up how to make my writing sound "smart."
