Google, Your Blog, and Colleges, How do they relate?
February 11, 2006 – 1:34 pm
In today’s world it is safe to assume that most people have blogs, or web logs. Most of these people are teenagers, and this is who this post is addressed to. Most of you teens have blogs on places like My Space, or Xanga.
This is great, but it comes with a risk. You all use these these things to talk to you friends, and express your emotions. This is the problem. When you talk to your friends through a computer you end up typing lyke tis becauz u get lazy. You may think that thats okay because its only you, and your friends who read it, but your wrong. When you start to apply for college, and you finally get someone who is interested in you they will begin to do some research on you. They will look at past school work, extracurricular sports, and even what you have done on the Internet. Think of it like this: Everything you write on your blog will be seen by college recruiters, and most likely your parents. Now obviously, if you wright well then they will consider accepting you, but if you write horribly, and talk about thing of no importance such as how you have XYZ person for ZYX reason.
If you really didn’t feel like reading that, and skipped to the bottom, then you should get at least this: If you have a blog then write useful stuff, and write it like your writing it for English class
