I began posting a lot of personal essays and random thoughts. I quickly came to realize that blog posts are a genre all their own. I embraced it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here I submit links to a couple of my favorites. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to maximize a test score<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They say you should write what you know. As a generalist, I know a little about a lot, but not a whole ton about any one thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BUT&#8230;what I am objectively good at is test-taking. Test-taking is not always a fantastic measure of someone&#8217;s knowledge or intelligence. Test-taking is a skill all its own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no shortage of blog posts about how to do well on a test, but I have original thoughts on the subject, which happened to have served me well in my may-I-say-somewhat-extensive college education days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please enjoy the following blog post:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wheresmysunnyporch.com\/careering\/how-to-perform-well-on-a-test\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Performing Well on a Test Regardless of Your Material Knowledge. For High School, College, and Beyond<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to talk to conspiracy theory-believing friend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wrote an informative article about why people have a tendency to believe in conspiracy theories which I had published on Medium.com. I wanted to supplement that information with a blog post about how to talk to family and friends about their conspiracy beliefs without sacrificing the relationship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had read multiple articles from psychologists about the best way to approach this sensitive subject matter, but I also had my own experiences. I felt I could add to the conversation. And, of course, leave out the advice that hadn&#8217;t worked for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please have a look at this blog post:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wheresmysunnyporch.com\/family\/talk-to-a-friend-about-their-conspiracy-theory-beliefs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Talk to a Friend About Their Conspiracy Theory Beliefs, and Keep the Friend!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first started a blog, I thought of it as a place to express myself.
