As much as I enjoy checking in periodically with favourite websites and blogs that I have bookmarked, a side of me still wants to revolt and boycott these practices of ‘following’ blogs which at points can make this process feel a bit vapid. It feels like a double edged sword at times; personally I wish to maintain a level of anonymity on the blog, that I hope will not affect its content.
I think my blog, to date, has been carefully curated but at some points sadly neglected because of life outside of the computer. I have found this new process of collecting my thoughts cohesively, both visually and through word and then archiving online, a welcomed new adventure.
Throughout this process, I have created this new found enjoyment for composing and expressing myself through word, which at times can prove to be challenging, for the normally artistic and visually inclined individual. I often dread having to write at length for assignments but I feel that because I have an interest in these topics, the task of writing has come more freely. I have also found it helpful to save drafts and edit posts, which has allowed me to review and reflect my thoughts over the course of days.

I feel I have only just felt the water and have yet to jump-into this process, head first. I know now, that in order for me to make this work more efficiently in the future, I have to fit this process into my daily routine and try to update more regularly.
