Portfolio Assessment #2

1) Yes, I was satisfied with the latest newsletter project. It was a creative new way to present our blogs.

2) The way I organized my newsletter was to put my best written and strongly worded blogs on the front page to catch the readers attention. The font page also showed the variety of the topics of my blog but yet still had a main focus. The second page consisted of the difficulties of friendships and relationships. The blogs I used on the third page of my newsletter spoke on post break-up trauma. I used the last page of my newsletter to somewhat "advertise" two artists that I love. I encouraged people to go out and buy Chris Brown's and Wiz Khalifa's new albums.

3) I think my biggest development was reaching out to people who read my blog. I think it has an effect on them, showing them that there not the only ones going through certain situations.

4) I believe my weakness is still trying to focus my blog on the readers instead as if its my personal diary. Though I still try to use my experiences as a guideline and advise my readers.

5) I think my blog demonstrates me as a strong but emotional person, developing writer in progress, a quick learner, and a very well-spoken and literate student.

Emotional Rollercoaster

Funny how everyone seems to think that hiding there emotions are gonna solve all their problems, but truthfully its only gonna hurt you even more. There are times no matter how much you want someone's help its hard to explain your feelings to them. It seems like your the only one who can solve your problems, so you give up on taking advice from other people. The thing is you just haven't found the right people to talk about your problems with. The type of people who know what you're going through and can show you how to get out of that bind. It's not that people try to hide their feelings from others, its just that they don't know who to turn to. SimplyPut...There's a need to keep secrets, since you don't know who can hurt you.

I swear I don't like stupid, immature people, especially those type of people who hate you for no apparent reason. SMH at them. Like seriously, she needs to grow up. Do you really expect to have mutual friends, talk about me to them and expect them not to tell me? Like how does that make you look? Yet she STILL won't say anything to me. I'm mad all this started over a boy, like I'm not fighting for him. If I end up fighting her, I'm not fighting for him, I'm fighting for pride and dignity as my sister would say. I really don't care for her at all. I don't hate her and I don't not like her. My feelings for her are indifferent. I just don't care, I'm not gonna hype up the situation cause that makes no sense, plus I don't want him to think less of me. But I mostly let all this just slide off. I'm just waiting for the day she comes up to me and says something slick...I'm ready for that. People need to learn to grow up like really. We can only move forward and staying in the past can damage our future. Soooo SimplyPut...Being Stupid Has Its Own Rewards.
