What I have learned....

“How can we use blogs to explore new ideas, opinons, and interact with the world around us?”

I have learned a lot in this blogging unit. Although I only posted 3 posts, I have learned a lot. I’ve learned on how to be more creative, I’ve changed my layout for several times until I actually like what I see on my blog. Sharing is also one of the things that I have learned in blogging. Me and my friends share a lot of things on our posts, whether it’s about sharing themes, sharing informations about the new things that are happening, sharing tips, sharing experiences, our thoughts, our opinions, etc. I personally like blogging because I think it is fun to share ideas, being creative and put some widgets, accessories, decorations on our blog, also I like to compliment other people’s works.

In commenting, I also have learned a lot. A lot of times back then I commented on other social medias or other posts online not in the right way. Now I know that the content must include compliment, feedback, relating the post with our experience, and ending the comment with a question. Also, one big thing, I never really proof read my comment. I directly comment without reading my comment all over again. Now that I know that I shouldn’t be doing that, I always proof read my comment everytime I want to comment on somebody else’s post.

Now I know more about blogging/online safety. Since it’s not really safe to be online nowadays. I don’t give my personal informations online, and I don’t really write much about myself (My full name, where I live, my number, etc.) These blogging guidelines that I have learned in this unit actually make me more aware of what I post and what I write online.

I need to improve lots and lots of things in blogging such as the type of language that I use in my posts, it might be too formal, and sometimes it might be a little too casual for school work. Also, I need to have more ideas on posting something. Sometimes I run out of ideas of what should I write on my blog. Let’s just hope I can post another things on my blog.

This Is Us: Documentary Movie by One Direction

So recently this documentary movie called This Is Us is already out in some cinemas. This Is Us is a 2013 British-Irish 3D concert/documentary movie centering the famous boyband, One Direction. I found some informations about this movie in the US. In the US, This Is Us is on the first rank in the Box Office Chart. This movie has made $15,815,000 even though it's a new movie that just came out a week ago.

One Direction members are Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, and Liam Payne. The fans are going crazy to see this movie. They're dying to watch the boys in the cinema. Also, this movie actually make the fans know better about their idols. This is a way how popular boybands can "interract" with the fans all around the world.

Now go to the best cinema in town and watch this movie! <3
