personality.
I think that this method of posting causes a drop in the quality of my writing - that may be unfounded. It might even just be the font that it's printed in reflecting a different mood to that which I want.
Or it may just be that because Blogger offers on-the-spot quick posting to the blog that I just slam something off the cuff and don't bother with any interest, because it NEEDS to be done quickly. Otherwise I'm not using the service to its full potential, am I?
I'd like to digress a bit here and say something about the quality of the English language. Usually I'm very harsh on people for not knowing the meaning of common words (see two posts previously), or neglecting apostrophes (or adding them in at every opportunity that arise's [sic]), or something else of that nature.
I think it's because I could read at a very early age. Since before the so-called 'critical age period', I was able to read twice as well as any average child my age. I've always been intrigued by the written word, insofar as I've tried writing anything I could - prose, fan fiction, songs, scripts, comics, poetry, not necessarily in that order. And I do think that it's partially due to my literary prowes that I do well in exams. That's right kids, you don't need to know your stuff, you just need to be able to fool this examiner into thinking you do! If you don't know a specific point, be ambiguous enough to give the gist of it without giving away that you actually have no idea what you're on about. In an Ethics exam, explain that GM foods should not be used because it reinforces the negative energy of the natural world, and provides karmic imbalance to the growers of organic produce, in accordance with religious beliefs.
more to come.
