I see my face on the table of contents page in The Graphic weekly, telling the public that I will be updating my run as an intern weekly. As you can see I have not done all that great with keeping up with it. I think this is the one area that I've failed as an intern. I'm not even real sure why I have such a problem with blogging. I always have a lot to say about things, but I think it's more everything that goes on with me I don't feel is interesting enough to talk about. But I guess I'll start giving that a try anyways.
Maybe it's my inability to pick topics. I'm a very indecisive person and since Jeremy gave me the assigment to vaguely blog about my internship, that leaves the rest up to me. When I get a specific assignment with a specific place and subject I am fine. I have the direction and don't have a lot of wiggle room. But blogging puts extra pressure on me because I have to find that interesting thing to talk about. I've been pretty good lately at telling myself I will do things and sticking to them so hopefully I'll be able to start blogging and stick with it. I gave up pop a few weeks ago and that took a lot of will power, as did giving up shopping and going to the bar with my friends (which I've broken that rule a few times), but I'm still doing a pretty consistently good job with those tasks, so why not with this?
Another reason blogging doesn't come natural to me is because I have a very sarcastic personality and I don't want to come across the wrong way. So I feel that my steps are being watched too closely. Ah well. I just have to spice up my life a little bit. Maybe if I could come up with a list of goals then I could talk about working those out. But blogging during the week, as requested over a month ago, is one of those things that I am now going to turn over a new leaf and do something about. I can't promise it will always be about my interning experience but I will be blogging.
