My first experience with Blogger was in 2011 when I was ambitious enough to start my own blog. I don’t know what I thought as a sophomore in high school what I was going to accomplish with a blog, but I started it out anyway.
It was called Random Discovery. I wanted to facilitate a space for the ultimate weirdness. Anything could be talked about and under the umbrella of ‘random’, short, long, or anything in-between of those lengths were acceptable. Thoughts about cows or serious topics could be brought up. The format of the posts would vary.
Reading through the blog now, I thought I would be embarrassed. I’ve gotten to a point where I’m not embarrassed to read it, but for others, I probably would be. But, I read a quote from my first post on the site and it was, “A big thing we all do is worry ourselves and something we all need to ‘chill.” So, let paper take all your secrets. And write.” Such a profound thing for me to write as a 15 year old.
I had others posts, ‘A Place For Your Tush’, ‘Not Just A Cow Goes Moo’, ’14 Great Things To Do With Tress’, and ’Let It Not Snow, Santa.’ Considering I’m horrible at creating titles, I’m quite intrigued now to see what I even wrote on the matter.
Maybe doing a blog for this class might spur some more writing in such a medium.
