Student PB's - Sensational September

We are starting something new in Room 9. We have set up a Student PB ( personal best) bulletin board to recognise students who are proud of their achievements both inside and outside of the classroom. To start us off we are recognising Aletheia & Akih for their amazing efforts with their blogging. So far Aletheia has published 115 blog posts for September and Akih has published 110 blog posts. Here are their thoughts on what motivates them to blog and some tips that they can offer others.

Blogging Profile - Aletheia

1.  What keeps you motivated to blog consistently?

The thing that keeps me motivated to blog is when I just look at my screen and forget about my friends so I can focus more in my work.

2. How much time do you spend blogging?

I love blogging so I don’t really know how much time I take to blog. On average, I blog at least  7 times a day. Whenever I am at home I will just start to blog and sometimes when I am playing I sometimes play because how I feel bored sometimes so then I can get motivated a lot.

3. What tips can you give to our readers about how to make sure we blog consistently?

It would be to move away from distractions. If you can’t do this then just stare at your screen and type away.

4. Where do you get your ideas about what to blog?

Sometimes I will just look at other classmates blog to get some ideas. I also look at Manaiakalani schools to see their blogs.

5. Can you tell me some of your strengths that really helped you in blogging?

Practicing on typing games have helped me to get better with typing while I am blogging. Playing learning games has also strengthened my blogging.

6. What do you think is the best service a blogger can provide to their readers?

I think the best thing to do is go next to someone you have not spoken to before and just do what I do best which is to just stare at the screen and keep your hands moving.

7.  How do you want to improve yourself in the next year?

I would like to improve more with my Maths. I am getting better but I know that I can always improve.

8. What is your greatest achievement outside of blogging?

Playing soccer with my friends is how I can get a lot of time with my friends.

9.  Where would you like to be with blogging five years from now?

Five years from now, I would like to be blogging as a part-time job at home.

 What was the most challenging moment in your blogging journey so far?

The challenging thing about blogging would be typing and coming up with things to say to my readers because I can be tired sometimes.
