Post #12 of my English Class: Blog Reflection

This blog has been a great job to do. At first it was very hard because I am not the kind of persons who wrote for the public, like I do not even like Facebook. At first, I had to write something and it could take me very long hours and I was so stressed because I did not know what to write. The process has been slow but I am getting better on writing. I am thinking more deeply and faster, also I am writing more effortless. I learned how to clear my mind and just think about the writing and this helps with the creative process.

It is not just that, I also learn a lot about other aspects of the tourism. When I first read Jamaica Kincaid's chapter of her book I was confuse because of the perspective she have of the tourist. At first, I thought that she was a hater and she was jealous of the tourist. Then, I started to do more reflections about it and analyze it more and now I can understand her and why she saw the tourist in that way.

The post that I more enjoyed was the Day as a Tourist because it was such a great experience. Externally I had a really great time going to all the places; but, internally I learned a lot with that experience.  First of all, I share some time with my family because we do not hang out very often together. Also, after four years of having my best friend finally our parents meet each other. Second I get to know my Island more because I went to really nice places that I did not know they .exist. And, finally because the people treat me really well because they thought I was a real tourist. It was such a nice experience being a tourist here and as a tourist I concluded that I definitely have to come back to visit more places because it was awesome.

Overall it was such a nice experience doing this blog. However, this is not the end I will continue this blog posting my experiences externally and internally. I already have three external journeys planed already. In May I 0have a cruise ship travel with my friends for a week. Later, on September I am going to start a new stage of my life because I am going to study at St. Kitts and two years after that I have to move to Portland, Maine for training. So, I am exciting of this and I will tell you about my inner journey.
