 Reflection: 7/17/2022

Tonight I want to take things a little slow. I am exhausted... yet again! I am tired of my kids having a cold after a cold. 

Let's see this week was an off one, I wasn't sure what to do with the class this week. I thought ok, let's find some things! I went over to Badgelist to see what there was I could do. I decided to take on the Goodreads challenge. 

It was interesting to see what reads were shared and it also had me thinking, that I should pick up a book. Maybe a little reading before bed would be good for the soul. 

Has anyone seen "Where the Crawdads Sing?" The trailer looked too good! I love Reese Witherspoon who is one of the Directors of the film. 


Also, we can't forget TSwift sings one of the songs in the film. 



I thought I should read the book first, before watching the film. 

Has anyone read or seen the film?

Who Am I? Really...

Happy Hump Day! This week feels longer than the last. Could be because school lets out in 6 days, which means my workload lightens and I can already feel myself wanting to take a much-needed vacation.  After looking through the different reading options this week, the journal article that stood out most to me was, "Constructing academic alter-egos: identity issues in a blog-based community". The keyword is alter-egos . As I read through the article I kept thinking about Monday's Instagram challenge. I don't just post all the time on my Instagram feed. Only "curated" photos go there. If I want to share a photo or video that doesn't fit my "standard" of what goes on my feed, I just share it to my stories. I hate how I'm explaining what goes where and why, like if I have a mass following and must keep to my brand. Dennen shared a piece from Bruner, that I felt encompassed what I was feeling. "As bloggers weave the narratives of their live...

What Type of Blogger Am I?

I enjoyed reading the type of blogger post! Reading it I first thought. "Oh I am soooo the transactional blogger." I'm trying to check the boxes off my list and figure out when and what I'll post for the week before the week is up. I'm just trying to get through the week and move on. But! As I read through the others I tried to see myself in them. Maybe I'm a little bit teacher ? But I haven't done any teaching yet. I feel like I am in the reflective stage right now. I'm just writing these blogs for myself. Using them to figure out what the heck I am doing. And yes, I don't actually want anyone to read my blog posts. If I see ever see you in public, I will hide. In case you are reading... What kind of blogger are you?

Reflection - 7/24/2022

One week left! I can't wait for the end.  Ok... maybe it's not finally over, but this time we are close. Next week I plan to use my blogging token and so this will be my last blog (wooh!). While blogging sometimes was very therapeutic, it was also just something else to add to my endless list of tasks. From what I have seen in this course, there are some natural bloggers out there! I hope they keep going 😊 As for me, I'm done.  Tonight I'll start my PLN and I think I'm going to write about an area of personal interest. Just because this course has taught me how much I love talking about being a new parent specifically breastfeeding, baby-lead weaning, and child development. There have been quite a few moments in this course that I've touched on those topics. This PLN has been growing with me as I enter new chapters in the life of parenthood.  Here we go! Let's start at 11pm at night and see how far we can get.
