I had written lots of blogs this year that i am amazed about after reading them back. I never thought of myself to talk about my past so much on my blogs. I thought writing blogs was fun and it was a way for me to not hide myself to the outside world.After posting blogs this year, I felt that writing blog was fun because it was a good way for me to show people who i am and tell them about the obstacles i went through.
Overall this year of posting up blogs, i believe that one of my favorite post that i had posted this year was about My Life with Violin/Viola. I think that this post may had took me the longest to write because it gave me lots of thinking about what my life was all about. My inspiration for writing this post was the thought of of my past. Before playing music, I was a really quiet and shy girl who did not know how to express myself. I was not the energetic and joyful girl as I am now.The face that I could always give out to the people surrounding me was hatred because i came from really strict parents. When i was little, my mom would scream at me when i get one math problem wrong on my math test or even when my writings are too ugly. The expression i always give to people make them feel that i am out of reached. Until i met my world of music where i actually felt something and learned to express myself more. Writing this post really brought me to tears because i actually realize how much an impact music had gain to me.
Looking back to my post from My life with Violin/Viola brought me a surprise looking at the growth i had from my past.“She screams at anyone that doesn't know how to play twinkle twinkle little star. It was my luck that I remember my fingering to play that song.”“I was able to teach young musicians all the things I learned over the past five to six years. I was proud to be a music teacher and because I get paid :D”This post really amazed me about what i had gone through that made me who i am now. Music was important and i felt that i had made lots of improvements over these past years. Although, there were lots of stress and stopping points over this past year, I now find it worth it for what i gone through. Reading this blog really made me think a lot about what my life is all about. I started from a little girl who learned how to play twinkle twinkle little star into a teacher who teach young ones how to play complicated music from composers like Bach, Beethoven, and Mendelson. Music turned me into a more smarter and stronger person. After rereading this blog, it really inspire to cherish my past music life that I had gone through and what I am doing now. Currently, i am focusing on my studying with piano and i will cherish it. Hopefully I will write a blog about it someday.
Blogging was a lot of fun. I never tried it up until this year. Although I had opened some earlier accounts on tumblr, i had no idea on how to blog. At the beginning, I thought blogging was hard, however now i am getting better and better with blogging. Good thing we learned how to this year :D I felt that blogging was a really great way to express myself. I mentioned that playing music express myself, however putting up blogs is my second choice when i have to express myself. I really enjoy reading the comments that are commented by readers in my blogging. Some comments that inspired me was a comment from a stranger who said that i did a really good job with talking about the character on the House on Mango Street. She or he thought my ideas were really creative. Also, I like looking at my stats knowing how many people had read my blogs and the places in the world that reads it. I was surprised when i found out that I had a lot of my blog viewers from Russia. I never thought that Russian people likes to read blogs i post. Blogging had changed the way i think about writing because now i find my writings to have more freedom. I could write whatever i feel like writing. Blogging is all about freedom to me where i can talk about my recent status and other past experience i would like to keep as memories. Making a blog had been a good way for me to actually show people my mood when i write a blog. There are always transitions with my mood and I like how people can actually know my mood from reading my blogs. Some examples would be from my vignettes where i talked mostly about my past memories and life.
Usually when I write a blog, I get my topics from thinking about my past. I always try to focus my blogs on writing about my life. I think that the reason I talk about my life on my blog is because I want to tell people about my life experience and for me to remember my past before I forget. One of my vignette I took in deep thoughts about my life.“Don’t talk back to me ! says Mama. She slapped my face so hard, it was red. My face was as red as the color of a red apple. Drops of tears were coming down my face like it was raining. My mom rush towards her room and shut the door as if someone was chasing her.” This is one of the quote where i talked about my past. This slap from my mom was not a bad thing because it taught me the lesson to not talk back to my parents and elders. I went through lots of obstacles through my life and I want to remember every single one of them. Writing a blog about it will stay there forever where i can read it anytime. Also, I like to share people about my past, so they would get to know me better. There were many tears that i had from my past and it shaped who i am now.The reason i start writing blogs is because Mr. Sutherland assigned this as homework, however after starting writing blogs, i realized that posting blogs is a fun thing to do. Starting writing blogs had inspired me to start writing other non academic blogs on other websites like tumblr and blogspot. I had gain more followers then usual.
My goal for next semester is to write more blogs. I feel that i wrote too less blogs this year. I believe that if i wrote more blogs then i would receive more viewers that i can check from my stats. It is important to me that i would get more readers because that shows that people actually care about what i write. In order for more readers, I will write more interesting topics. Another goal for me is to expand my writing topics more. I do not want people to read my blogs just all about my life. I feel that it would be more entertaining for me to talk about other things other than my life.
