In America. many students use blogs (博客) as diaries and places to look for advice or find help. It's very hot. Many students are doing it. "I write about my activities every day, funny things or questions in my life." Says Lily, a student at Castle High School. Andrew a student at Crystal Springs High School says. "I like posting pictures on my blog. Posting pictures is a way to make my blog more beautiful and many people like them. I's a window into my life in a fun way." He has been writing the blog for eight months.
Students like writing blogs because they're easy and they're free. They can write what they like, think, feel or post pictures. They don't need to spend any money.
"Before I write a blog. I never really have a place to write down my ideas or show my pictures to people." says Betty, a student at a college. For many students the blog becomes a place to look for help with their problems. They look for advice from anyone. "It lets me write down any problem. And sometimes, things are easier if you write them out." Betty says.
