5. Click on the Blogger menu item.
6. Click on the New Blog button at the top left of the page.
7. In the Title cell, write, "(your full name's) AW Blog" (ex. Keiko Sato's AW Blog).
8. In the Address cell, write, "(your full name without spaces) + AW05" (ex. KeikoSatoAW05).
9. Choose a Template that you like (I don't recommend Awesome  Inc. because it's difficult to read). Don't worry, you can change the template at any time.
