Over the semester, I feel that the written observations have been an interesting task for me. Out of the observations I’ve read, both other peoples and my own, I feel that the most engaging ones to be those with a very personal tone, in which the writer inserts their own unique style, or expresses their thoughts in an indirect way. By extension, I feel that to create this more personal tone, a more casual or even simplistic language is preferable. I found that this casual tone reflects itself onto me as a reader, and made the pieces I read more conversational, down to earth and inviting. As a literature student, this is a drastically different style to what I’ve grown accustomed to, and while it’s been a refreshing change, I did find myself struggling somewhat with the amount of individual observations I had to write. Even with the word count on them being short, I found that I struggled a lot more with writing 6 or so small pieces, as opposed to one large piece which I could focus all my attention towards. Coming up with 6 topics to discuss was difficult at times, and as someone who often struggles with indecisiveness, the broad nature of their subjects ended up being quite restrictive for me, and found myself deliberating on ideas that I would eventually scrap, due to them either being too complex, uninteresting, vague or any other number of reasons. However, I do feel that the observational writing process was ultimately beneficial to myself as a content creator. Many of the observations I am most proud of started from fairly dull concepts, and it showed that you don’t necessarily need perfect ideas to make engaging work, which is something I hope to remember in future projects, both at uni and in the workplace.
