It has recently come to my attention that my blog is rather negative and demeaning. I have to agree with the fact that I have been rather critical of our campus in my last few posts. However, I will not apologize for what I have said. I feel strongly enough about what I said that I do not see any point of saying sorry for hurting people’s feelings. Now, I do not like to hurt or offend people on purpose, but I cannot help it if when reading my blog people take it to heart. If I was to write about things that I knew everyone would be happy with and were always positive, then those would be boring posts because I would not be writing with passion and from my heart. I also do not want to lie to the people reading my blog. In order for me to write the way these critics of my blog want me to, I would have to (excuse my language) BS my way throughout every post. From personal experience, people do not like BS. There is also another thing I have realized. Many people may not personally know me and probably do not know my sense of humor. In almost everyone single one of my posts, my humor can be seen in bits and pieces of the reading. I believe that some people are reading my posts and thinking that I am some mean bully. However, I am a rather sarcastic person. Whenever I make a comment that seems mean, it is probably because I am using sarcasm. The only thing I am sorry about is that the critics of my blog do not understand sarcasm and cannot see the satire in my posts. One thing I can promise you, the reader, is that I will try my best to be more positive on my next post. If you, the reader, promise me that you will recognize my sarcasm and realize I am not some mean, snarling beast with a blog.
With love,
Meredith
