Thing #2

I’ll be completely honest; I have never read a blog before this week.  They are completely foreign to me. This led me to do a Google search.  Blogs are everywhere about everything!  Their purpose is to allow a public journal where one can reflect and share on their personal successes and failures.  This also can be a site to read reviews on movies, games, toys, and etc.  Blogs also allow you to receive feedback from other who may offer insight on you post.  After finding out all of this information, I am really excited to start my own journey of creating a blog.  This is another opportunity for me to learn something new and useful to my trade.

Choosing the name for my blog was easy.  I stuck with something simple and familiar.  My name!  I decided to use my name because it allows me to be 100% true to my post.  I want what I say to reflect who I am not a fictional character that I made up.  Once my name what chosen then I began to set up my blog.  After getting over the initial nerves, it was easy to set up the blog.  The direction to create a blog was very well laid out.  It was easy because of the user-friendly directions!  The next step was to create an avatar.  This step was full of fun.  I played around with some of the choices and created some fun characters.  In the end I chose one that looked more like myself.  I wanted an avatar to represent who I am.  My avatar has long hair, glasses and looks like she is ready to learn!
