Is This Goodbye?

So this is it, ya'll...my last blog post! Blogging has been a valuable and challenging experience. Here are some things I've learned/want to share:

• Be concise. Make every word count. A good blog post will get a strong message across in one or two paragraphs, so there's little room to ramble on and get too off topic. 

• There are levels to this.  It's important to be an informed viewer…at least sometimes. We shouldn't always take the characters on TV and in movies at face value. It's good to spend some time thinking about what these characters stand for, what they represent, and how they are portrayed.  It's easy to simply watch and enjoy a show without giving thought to the above questions, but paying attention to the underlying themes, especially with regards to women, is important.  These shows, these characters, can have a big impact on how we view ourselves and the world around us.

• This is going to sound so cliche, but seriously, just do you.  The media may not always show it, but we women are a dynamic group. Embrace the awesome that is you.  And take the women featured on this blog as an example...you can lead.
