Throughout this semester, I have spent many hours researching and interviewing so that I could accumulate the information that I wanted to use for my project. I tried to maintain a balance of praise and criticism while research so that I could maintain an unbiased perspective, and then make a conclusion from it all with the confidence that I had used all my researched information sincerely. I already knew of the general information that I drew upon, however when I put them all together for my autoethnography, I was a able to see the bigger picture. By using, American immigration, diversity, and suppression, and then the personal opinions from U.S. dual and tri citizens, I learnt from a large bundle of information which in turn me accumulate wisdom. I previously knew about all this information separately, but I learnt much more about them when I put them together into a coherent thought process.

More often than not, these kind of class projects tend to be ignored once they've been graded for a class. I personally believe that my autoethnography has a little more to it because while it does get me my grade, it also has the potential to teach anyone a little about the U.S.'s immigration and suppression history as well as displaying the opinions of U.S. dual/tri citizens. It provides not only fact-based opinion, but also gives a personal touch as the interviewees can give their thoughts about the U.S. from local and foreign perspectives. So as a result, my autoethnography will be able to teach readers about the general beauties and issues that are ingrained within American history.
I seldom write blogs. It usually isn't my cup of tea because it too directly reveals what I believe and I am often worried about this since most people who read about my autoethnography will go in with a stone-set opinion. Maybe they might think my writing is too soft on US suppression, or they might say that I missed out vital information. I therefore usually prefer to write poetry because I am able to disguise my opinion into abstract thoughts. As a result, my writing is also short-winded so blogging isn't necessarily my forté for when it comes to explaining things in good length. Nevertheless, I can slowly learn to apply this new style of writing and efficiently use it for my blogging and for my autoethnography.
