The experience of creating a new blog has been extremely enjoyable. In my Sci-Fi Lit class last year, we were required to keep a blog about science fiction with many post themes suggested throughout the semester. Prior to that, I ran a personal blog that had some success, but I deleted it. I have a little experience with HTML coding and can create some pretty standard effects on the page. There are also a few blogs that I keep up with from time to time.
I am using my real name for posting because when I am applying for teaching jobs, I want to be able to use this blog as a part of my resumé or portfolio. There is no sense in hiding who I am, since this blog is meant to be professional and an example of my workmanship.
The creation of this blog was quite easy since I do have experience in the matter. I enjoy personalizing and editing web pages and using the small amount of HTML code that I know to really make something my own.
The avatar I created looks quite a bit like me, and but doesn't reflect my personality very much. The avatar looks like a plain college girl who is addicted to Starbucks. Although the Starbucks addiction is accurate, the rest is not. I am by no means plain. If I could, the avatar would have included my cat because I am a cat person to a crazy extreme. My energy and attitude tend to lift others up when I am around. I am an extrovert and an entertainer. Making people happy makes me most happy in life. It is pretty hard to put all of that into an avatar, though, so plain college girl will have to suffice for now.
