Writing Changes?
Some say writing changes when we write in blogs, different in the form of paper/pencil and different from fingers tapping/keyboard. In this “some” category, I would consider myself a part of that majority. My writing has changed in the fact that I emphasize different parts of what I am trying to say. Usually the most important part or just an ironic sampling of what I feel is humorous or sarcastic of what I am trying to relate to a reader.
I can also link to parts of the web to find ways of expressing my indignation, disgust, laughter and, thoughts. This is a sort of writing process that involves including links in strategic places, ones that will emphasize my point in case.
When we discuss readers, I ask myself, “Hey, Aya. Do you have a reader?” Then I think, “Well, yeah. Most of my friends read this blog and so does my mother.” I wonder then, do I write for them or me? I started out writing for me, in a diary-like fashion. I didn’t link and I soon became bored with the blog. A month or so later I returned and began tweaking with the blog until I was happy with how it looked, played around with my entries and started comparing my blog to others. My readers took shape when I finally committed myself to “…College Life…” as a title. I started to wonder what sort of news or things college students would want to read. I consider myself a college student (wonders do happen) and began selecting news and issues that I believe most college students can compare themselves to. I may not be the most racy college student out there but that doesn’t mean I will be boring.
So, with that, I leave you with a gaming glow
My brother and I have played Dark Alliance for the PlayStation2 for months now and we played from 6pm last night until midnight. I have to say, this is one of my favorite 2 player games, ever. In fact, it is my favorite. They did a great job to include 2 player action in such an RPG -Role Playing Game. We are still not done with the game and are actually hoping it never ends.
