Final Blog

It is difficult to say what kind of mind I have. I don't really like to classify myself. I consider my mind to be a mixture of things. However, I would say that my mind falls under the qualifications of a synthesizing mind. I am always the one to explain concepts to my friends. Just last period, I had to explain the connection between the Ku Klux Klan and the New Palestine Dragons. In this blog, I was able to read other articles, pick out the information that would most relate to my "big question", and use only what I needed.

I exhibit curiosity mostly when I feel that information given to me is incorrect or skewed. I also like to find new information that relates to my interests. I was able to do that in this blog because I got to pick the topic and research it myself. I like to challenge my own beliefs. Sometimes I would go back through and read things and wonder if it was a good decision to put that on there. I like to write not only something that I find interesting, but something that might catch the eye of other's. It is no good writing something for a cause if no one is going to be interested in it.

The thing that surprised me most was that I did not mind writing on the computer. I usually feel that the quality of my writing is taken away when I type it rather than write it out, but I found that that was not the case this time. I was able to use engaging tactics even on the computer, although I still prefer the old fashioned pen to paper.

  1. Nice honest self assessment on your Final Blog entry. I'm glad you were "...able to use engaging tactics even on the computer, although I still prefer the old fashioned pen to paper". It is always good to find more ways / mediums to write in. Bravo!
