Through my experience blogging hadn't always been easy in the beginning; but to tell the truth I was actually kind of excited to try blogging for the first time. I really struggled with not rambling on and trying to make my post the minimum length without going off detail and sticking to the main idea of the blog post itself. I can kind of see my blog post being more on topic and not rambling on as much. How I improved this is by choosing stories or news articles that really stick out to me and I can create a really good blog post on its plot or concept of the story or article and I've seen this technique has really helped me in my other blog post. One strength I really admired that I had was I could make really good predictions and good ideas that I kind of added to the story or news article.
Now I believe this blog post I chosen best shows how I talk about the theme in great detail and also showing my strength and technique I talked about before. http://chickennuggets14.blogspot.com/2013/09/summer-reading-c.html

Some goals I have for my reading is to stick with books a little while longer instead of not giving them a chance and returning them immediately. I will also be keeping my technique I'm using for my blog post which Is another goal of mine. I really need to work on moving out of my comfort zone in books I read and spreading out from the regular realistic fiction I always read. Some things I should definitely improve on in my writing is not rambling on and on. Also staying on detail and executing the idea of the blog post through clearly.
