I’ve been thinking about this for the last…. uhmm… 10 minutes or so, and decided to write a blog about it BECAUSE!!!… it is about blogs
Everytime I want to write a blog I feel like I have to write an essay. What I mean is, I feel like I have to use super proper english, and say everything right, and follow some rules. I don’t know why or where I’ve been getting this idea from (maybe because this is actually an assignment… that has to do with writing) And whenever I think of anything as an assignment, I get discouraged. It starts feeling like duty instead of something I enjoy doing. Not that I really enjoy blogging, but you get my point.
So, then I thought… wait… it’s just blogging. It’s not like I have to write a cover letter or anything. I’m just trying to share information. But I want to write it, the way I like to read it. If I like something, there’s probably tons of other people who like the same thing, so why would this idea fail?
I feel like someone is going to come up to me and tell me “Duh-uh Val everybody knows you can write your blogs however you want to, you don’t have to be proper” and if that is true I’m allowing you to call me ignorant… for 5 seconds…. 1… 2…. 3… puff!… done, you can’t call me ignorant anymore. You’re also not allowed to say “that wasn’t 5 seconds!”
What I’m trying to say with all this is, I guess we don’t have to be super uber proper, like writing an essay, but we can at least avoid some words like “wanna or gonna” making a blog mildly proper should do the job of sharing the information and entertaining the reader. A lot of people hate having to read boring properly written news like in the newspaper, or so I hope, because my main language is not english. It’s easy for me to read it… but not write it.
P.S.: For those who don’t know… I speak spanish
