Some years ago, I've had a blog about books, and, actually, if I had to write a blog about something now, it would be again about books.

I would write for my holiday destination because more people are interested in these theme. I would include in my blog for museums, buildings, religion, customs and for well-known foods. I think people will be reading these kind of blogs with enjoyment.

if i had a blog, id probably write into the creative department, I'd write about creating characters and their stories, and would probably post some of my own work too! but,i might still make other types of content from time to time,i'm a chaotic kind of person,so my content might be random and chaotic as well.

If I had a blog, I would write about common misconceptions about the Internet or the world. Most of people think some thing is true and agree with each other when it is conpletely false. I would like to spread awareness about these things. To give an example, the electric car was invented alongside with the gasoline car, only that it was too heavy and too slow to be practical. It therefore fell into obscurity until Mr. Elon Musk brought it back into the light of day with the original Tesla Roadster.

I want to talk about my extracurricular at my school. At my school, I pick computer lessons as my extracurricular. I think that the lessons are pretty interesting and useful like making websites, spreadsheets for data and accounting, and making new programs. Sometimes, the teacher explains the material too quick because he's not patient enough. I hope the teacher becomes nicer and be more patient to guide all the students to reach their potential in technology. I once made a website where you can tell people about your hobbies and learn lessons in my extracurricular. I got a pretty high score and I was happy I got high score. I wanted to learn how to make more interesting websites since that. As a teenager I hope the school can pay attention to the character of the teacher because I believe we need a really good guidance to reach our maximum potential. Training will be needed regularly to remind important vision and mission as teachers are so important. now I try to accept the situation most of the time and never stop moving forward regardless how the situation is.
