Final Questions

1. Describe the importance of blogging to modern day journalism.
Blogging in modern day journalism has become a major assest. Everyone realizes that newspapers are shutting down or letting people go because they aren't popular like they once were. I believe that if you are good a blogging then you can do anything in journalism because I think blogging will be the next big thing.

2. If you are going to continue to blog, why? or why not?
I use blogging as a filter for things I can't say to certain people. I blogged before this class so this was nothing new to me. I can't say that I'll continue to blog on music, but I know I will still continue. I love writing. It has always been a passion for me.

3. If you were going to keep blogging, how will you change your blog in the future?
I will change my blog in multiple ways I'm sure. I know that I will grow up more, whereas I will change more. I have considered doing a blog for my final year in college. Just a way for me to remember everything and always have something to look back on and also vent out frustration as well as happiness.

New chapter for America?

‎10 years ago we heard the horrible news of September 11th. Today America wakes up to wonderful news of a terrorist's death. Unfortunately we know this isn't over but a new chapter is beginning. Americans have been waiting for this day for the last 10 years. Last night when President Obama was speaking there were thousands of American's outside of the White House celebrating. There was celebration all over the United States. From people who lost loved ones in 9/11 to those that simply just love their country and were in some way affected by the attacks of the tragedy. All we know to ask now is what's next? Will Bin Laden's followers retaliate or will this be the end? We know that it isn't the end. The world is full of evil every way we turn. We can only hope that we don't let our guard down and we continue to stay alert and except the worst to happen. Thank you to the troops that were brave enough to go in to get Bin Laden. They will always be known for that noble act. I'm quite the realist so I'm going to expect the worst. I'm bracing myself for what's next. But God help us so that nothing comes next.
