Week 3 - Blog 1

Hi Everyone,

This week you have to write about your blogging experiences and expection.

Mention the following:

-Have you ever kept a personal blog? Describe it

-What are your expectations for your English blogs

-What do you think might turn out to be challenging

-How do you think you could use it to improve your English

-Are there any special topics you'd like to write about?

You have to write a minimum of 150 words and comment 3 of your classmates’ posts.

Well, as it will be usual. Here you have my own post:

I used to have a blog where I’d write my personal thoughts and insights about life and stuff, but I quit posting years ago. Now, In blogging terms, I’m just devoted to this one.

This semester, I’m looking forward to read what you all have to say in your own blogs. I have the feeling you’ll come up with great posts and comments.

You may always find difficulties with vocabulary and some grammar issues, specially being consistent with your styles and having cohesive sentences. We’ll get into that in the future I guess.

However, blogging will not only help you with the issues mentioned above, that is increasing your lexis repertoire and let you practice and apply your grammar, but It will give you the chance to work out your own English speaking (and writing) identity.  

Regarding the topics that I’d like to write about, I’ll leave it up to you. I just don’t want to influence your proposals.

Well, welcome to this blogging experience and I hope you enjoy it and make the most out of it.
