THE LAST BLOG!

This is the FINAL blog of my AP English blogging career. I'm not a big fan of blogging in the first place, and when I heard at the beginning of this class that we would have to blog every week I was not enthused. It is hard for me to find things I feel passionate enough about to post. The days that Mr. Mullins posted suggestions really helped me. I almost always used one of the suggestions, and usually went back and blogged about one of the previous suggestions for the next week's blog. Even though I still don't really like blogging, I see the value of looking at prompts, current events, books, etc. with a literary mindset. Blogging about it allows you to get those literary ideas out for the world to see.

As for AP English Literature as a whole, I had a pretty good year. I will be the first to admit that English is not my strong suit. Never has been, and most likely never will be. That said, I still feel that I made some big improvements on my essay writing skills. I also had some things I found fun, which is rare for me in English classes. Watching "The Importance of Being Earnest" was one of my favorite things. Another thing I enjoyed was all the Make-It-Memorable components of our Poetry Presentations. I thought that it was really interesting how most groups did unique things!

With graduation just around the corner, I am going to miss all my friends that I made in this class. Most of my friends are going to different colleges far away. I hope that we can all stay in touch when we get into college!
