Writing really isn't something I've done much of in the past couple of years in college. Whenever I could, I would avoid taking any form of reading and writing comprehension classes. Analytical and creative writing really weren't my thing. To be brutally frank, I didn't really care. However, after finally finishing the rigors of college (well more like not being stressed out anymore), I definitely feel like I have more time to read interesting books/novels and possibly begin new hobbies like this one. My writing is definitely very beginner level, but hopefully as I write more, my writing can become a bit more bearable to read.
For me, writing is a great way of saving precious memories that I may forget in the future. By writing down these memories I want to be able to look back at what I've seen and done. By looking at my past I can be a bit more efficient about my future in terms of revisiting past places and experiences. Besides writing for memories, I guess writing is a great way to express myself in a more creative medium. Though for now I'll just stick to writing a simple blog about my travels for the summer. This writing is primarily for me, but by showcasing my writing to the public it forces me to write more properly and actually try to improve.
Now that I've graduated, I'm both excited and nervous about my future. Maybe this whole writing thing is to cover my anxiety about finally having to go in the real world. Maybe I actually want to write. Who knows.
