Blogs

So after countless weeks of writing blogs on topics that you have given us, I think it is a good idea for you to give us this topic on that we can write about anything. First i could not really think on what to write this about. I was thinking at first to write it about something involving sports or my entire high school career to this day. I was even thinking about writing it on square dancing since we start that in gym in a couple of days, but I decided to save that for anothe wild card in the near future. I thought it would have been tough for me to reach 500 words on some of the topics i was thinking about. Sports would be easy but I thought many people would try to write about that so i decided not to.
So for this blog i wanted to write about something different. I am going to wite about writing blogs. I have to write blogs for two of my classes. This class and my expository writing class for mueller. At first you two had similar ways on how the blog was set up. You would distribute a topic to the class and they would have to to write their response by writing on certain amount of words. Then mueller decided to change the ways she did her blogs. Once she did that I realized how much easier hers turned out to be. It was not the way she did hers now that made it easier it was the amount of words she used to make the blogs easier. Every sunday night i would do both of the blogs. Yours would take up a lot of time, while Mueller's I would be done with very easy.
I am not trying to say i like the way she does her because i think you have a lot of interesting topics that we can write about. But there are some topics that you have that are tough to write about. You seem to understand that because there have been a few times where you have shortened the word count. Even when there is a really good topic to write about i find it hard to get to 500 words. The last 100 words are usally just me putting random word in it to make it longer. I think if you made the word count down to 400 it would make it a lot easier for many of your students.
I like writing blogs. It is the only fun hw assaigment that I have. It does not really have to do with anything that we learn in class and it gives us freedom to write about what we want. Other classes still involving doing work and when is that ever fun. Other then it is some what hard toremember and that it is hard to reach the mininum number it is fun to do and an easy way to get the grades higher. I would suggest you lower the number of word on some more blogs though.
