It is time for you to create a blog if you don't have one already. This isn't too difficult. Take your time and ask your neighbor about adding widgets and other elements. Have fun with this.
Now because you HAVE to have an assignment or you'll get bored quickly, you need to add a brief summary of the book you read for this class.
Also, add a list of song titles/artists you like. These can be in a separate widget or post. Create the page how you want, but make in look nice and have some order.
You also need to find a quote to place under your title as I did.
Also, fill out the profile section.
One more item: find a buddy and learn how to post a comment to each other's site.
Add your blog's name in the comment area, so all can view.
"Merely having an open mind is nothing. The object of opening the mind, as of opening the mouth, is to shut it again on something solid." -Chesterton
Journals
It is important to realize the difference between a diary and a journal. Diaries tend to be a more light-hearted form of writing, listing events from the day. Journals tend to dig deeper and answer the "why" about the event of the day. Journals can record events, but they also show the writer's thinking and philosophy of life. If you're writing entries as you would a diary, you'll soon find writing to be a drudgery and boring. Write your journals introspectively and about life's mysteries, and you'll find out you are more interesting than you thought. Shoot for 200 words.

Contemporary Concern
"Everything I have said and done in these last years is relativism....If relativism signifies contempt for fixed categories and men who claim to be the bearers of an objective, immortal truth...then there is nothing more relativistic than Fascist attitudes and activity.... [T]he modern relativist infers that everybody has the right to create for himself his own ideology and to attempt to enforce it with all the energy of which he is capable." [Mussolini, Diuturna, pp. 374-377, cited in Henry Veatch, Rational Man, 1962, p. 41].
