structure.

Beginnings are awfully important things. first impressions mean the world to some people these days. job interviews can drastically change your life and everyone remembers the first date so a blog should be no different. I feel as if you don't absolutely fall in love within the first page there isn't much promise for the future. I take first impressions very seriously. From the blogs I read I saw that there were a lot of different directions I could take mine. I could be emotional and make connections to my everyday life and pull at my readers heart  strings. on the other hand I could work it as an advice column and tell people what they should do to improve their lives. The second blog goes the way to be positive reinforcement for the reader. Then I was beginning to see that neither of those were ways I could go. they just weren't me. they weren't my style and I wasn't interested in writing about those things at this point in my life.Then I clicked on the third link. Kinda a Goldie Locks syndrome. One was too mushy one was too hard and one was just right. Rebeccablood.net is the blog i was most interested in. It was more of a free write. I believe the best ideas come from free thinking when you just let everything flow out of you all at once. That's what I want my blog to be. I want to be free to let everything come out with no reservations. Although, there is a downside to that. When I see blogs that are 'free' they can sometimes become disjointed or choppy. I've always struggled with letting my thoughts get away from me and flow into these little unconnected sentences that make no sense when put together. I'm hoping a routine writing project like this will give me some more structure in my life and writing until its Just right.
