katey "best of blogs"

Blogging is very interesting to say the least. Everyone has their own opinions and views on every subject imaginable. I could never say I have a favorite though. Each one is unique and helpful in their own sense. Every blog has its own sense of style and gives me a great perspective on many different things. It almost feels like organized free writing with a lesson at the end. Also with so much variety of information the choice for future topics would be endless. Things that seemed so bland and uninteresting to me before became exciting and kept me so intrigued. I could literally just sit here for hours reading and getting lost in facts and opinions about the most random things. Just reading and writing blogs as an assignment sounded skeptical to me at first. But its actually pretty fun. Definitely a great learning tool as well. Even without trying, I feel like after reading so many blogs, articles, and essays, I may have subconsciously started to learn better and more efficient writing skills. As well as I've learned to read a little faster too. This is actually more enjoyable then I could have predicted. In my opinion, having fun while learning helps to increase the chances that one will retain the knowledge for a longer period of time as well as faster. My classmates believed that some of the most important elements of writing include content, details and understanding of the subject matter. The flow of the subject matter as well as structure of the essay are also very important. I wholeheartedly agree with them. These are all great things to learn and keep in mind in when writing an essay. But i also believe that in order to write a really great essay you have to put your heart into it and truly believe in what your writing about. Of course, that's just my personal opinion and thoughts. I look forward to learning from my fellow classmates and reading their future essays and blogs.
