For the purpose of this blog post, I would like to discuss a
few topics, including other people’s writing, my other classes, and outside of
school.
Other people’s writing: Throughout this week (and honestly throughout
this semester overall), I have read so many incredible stories. I almost forgot
how many different writing styles there were until I took this class. People
sometimes wrote in first person, or wrote modern twists of older stories, or a
variety of other techniques that I had never even thought to utilize before! If
I had any more stories to write for this class, I think I would definitely try
to use the technique of writing in first person. All of my stories that I wrote
for this class were written in third person, so I think a good challenge would have
been to try to write a new story in first person.
My other classes/outside of school: I am finally finishing
up my final semester at OU. I am graduating one semester early, so I feel like
I am not entirely ready to go into the real world, but I feel like I just kind
of have to take it one day at a time and let everything fall into place. I do
not have any actual final exams this semester (which is pretty typical for me
because I am a journalism major so most of my “finals” are either papers or
articles). I do have one take-home exam, but I feel like that does not really
count as a final exam since it is open book and I do not have to study. In
regards to graduating, I am in the process of finding a job. I am hoping to
work where I interned at a few summers ago, but we will see what happens!
