Blogging

For the writers workshop this week I am going to write about 10 reasons you should be glad I didn’t blog in my 20’s. I am going to change the prompt slightly though because I am still in my late 20’s. I am going to write 10 reasons why you should be glad I didn’t blog while I was in college and in my early 20’s.

All I would have had to write about was what I was doing in class and lets just say that would have been super boring. I never partied in college so I wouldn’t have any good stories.
I would have written about my crazy roommates and the one who ended up over dosing the day before Thanksgiving my last semester up at Weber State.
You would have had to read all the posts from when I was pregnant and pissed off at my daughters father.
You would have had to listen to me complain about all the young girls that were keeping their children when I was 20 and placing mine for adoption. It really bugged me at the time and I have since got to the point where I just don’t care anymore. Everyone decides what is best for them and I don’t have the time to worry about it.
Of course you would have had to read about all the high school drama that went out those years.
I wouldn’t have wanted anyone to see pictures of me from that time because that would be super scary.
God knows who I would have pissed off because I just learned how to control what I say or write. I didn’t have any filter back then.
There would have been tons of god awful music and crazy music on here.
I never would have gotten any school work done because I would have spent all the time blogging and reading blogs.
This last one comes from my favorite roommate and she said she was glad I didn’t blog then because she didn’t want any incriminating information out there about her. I gotta love his roommate she is also the only person who ever gave me a nickname the stuck and she still calls it til this day.

So those are my ten things. What is one reason you are glad you didn’t blog then?

When I started blogging I didn’t even realize that there were so many blogs out there. I started blogging simple as something to do and as a way to keep my husbands family up to date on things that were happening with us since his family is all out of state. There are so many things that I now know about blogging that I wish I would have known about when I started blogging years ago.

The biggest tip I could give a new blogger would be to just have fun with blogging. When I started it was more like a chore and it was really hard for me to keep it up. I do go through phases where it seems like it is a chore but when I just have fun with it and blog about things that are on my mind I find that can write posts without having a problem. Right now I feel I am stuck and I haven’t been able to finish a blog post to save my life. I know that once I get into the groove again I will have tons of posts almost ready.

When I have forgot to have fun with blogging I have gone months and months without posting. I know when I have to write blog post for products I receive or a book review I struggle with it because I really don’t enjoy having to write posts on something. I love when I write about whatever I am feeling like and I hate having to write about certain things. Now that being said I still do sponsored posts and book reviews because I love books and can use the money and products from sponsored posts.

I went off on a tangent there but in the end I would just say don’t forget to have to fun with blogging and don’t lose site of why you started blogging! What one tip would you give to someone who is starting out blogging?
