Reflection - Twitter
Oh man...I just have to say it: Tweeting as a professional profile is SO difficult for me. Every time I need to tweet, I have to wrack my brain to see if I have anything meaningful to say. I made it work, but it was not easy.
Most of my tweets are clumped together so I have about 5 for one day then 0 for the next 3 days until I remembered the assignment again. It was difficult for me because I have a personal Twitter account so I'm used to being able to tweet freely on that. On the professional account, however, I really struggled with finding things to say or retweet.
I think the most exciting thing about making this professional Twitter account was when the MN Senator Amy Klobuchar followed me back. I got to meet her in 2010 on our family trip to Washington D.C. so it was cool to have her follow my account.
Even though it was such a challenge for me, I think professional Twitter accounts can be incredibly useful. Maybe I'll reboot mine when I start teaching...
I had to do some digging... but here is the picture of us with Amy Klobuchar. (I believe I was just about to start 7th grade)
