After all this is a class project

Most of the blogs seemed like the students writing them decided to keep it mostly formal. Unlike other blogs or online journals that i have read the student blogs here seem to show some concern for grammer and spelling. I credit that to this being a class project where we will be looking at the blogs of peers that we have just met not friends that we have known for a while. The blogs where the class introduced it self is really the first time we've had a chance to tell each other about our lives... other then the brief introduction we had in the actual classroom where everybody was probably thinking "oh shit what am i going to say". So with this being our first chance to get to know each other no one wants to appear the stupid student who can't spell things. Yes these blogs are very formal, but is formal bad this is a class project, we are representing good ole Kutztown?
