I created this blog to have a space on the Internet for my voice to be heard for those who want to see it. Blogging is such a great sedation which has taken over the whole internet in different forms such as vlogging super stars such as Zoella and MusicalBethan who I personally like watching on YouTube as well as other "vloggers" as they are called generically.
Me personally blogging is still the best form of online communication to the world because, so much can be said in one or more blogs, than a 3 minute video about a random topic whereas a blog can dig deep into one particular subject and that's fascinating to me how blogs can sometimes stay connected and some vlogs too on one specific topic compared to many sites which take on many topics which is great too! But for me, written words speak louder and clearer than spoken words from my experience.
I'm no means a popular "blogger" and had no direct intention of becoming one when I started this blog, I simply started it to voice what I think and put it somewhere for people to like or dislike and I can speak freely and not be interrupted.
This form of writing has always been something I love doing, when I was 13/14 and even still now I wanted to become a journalist. It was my dream to be part of a newspaper or magazine and have my own place to just do what I love to do! Write about events or topics of interest which people enjoy! However, since I was 14 I have decided that journalism isn't the job for me due to my academic ability not being that great meaning getting into university courses for that subject would be very hard indeed.
However, I have t given up on my dream. "Blogging" is a freelance form of journalism which anyone can do because well, it's free! No qualifications needed no pressure for deadlines no one telling you this is a load of (insert rude word) and it's more free than a job in a magazine or newspaper where you're told what to write and when for. Here I can write whenever I like!
This blog allows me to keep my dream alive and pursue what I want to do once I get my qualifications from university, become a teacher. I love to talk and explain ideas to people and during my a-levels I've realised, hey teaching may not be a bad career actually. (Plus you get great holidays which is just a bonus on finding out a job who would be good at!)
I use to panic and worry about what I would do when I'm an adult and whether I would make enough money or lose my passions but, then I realised just before I started this blog that, what I choose to make happen, will be my decision and I will do my best to make the best decision for me. Which is who I am, on a basic level.
