Blogging. Yup. 

Thanks to the invention of the world wide web, blogging, along with many, many other things have become available to the general public and if I'm not mistaken, blogging is one of the most popular of past times for individuals between the ages of 16 and 28. Ok, I don't know if thats fact, but it sounds right. Topics of these blogs could be one of thousands including, but not limited to: college, high school drama, news reports, forced school assignments, interior decorating tips, cooking, skydiving, travel, life on a farm, life in the city, life in general, "my life sucks", cats and their habits, playwriting, rock climbing, stalkers stalking people, movie critiques, burn sites, memorial sites, "i-just-met-you-and-i'm-sure-we're-in-love" sites, german things, antiques and what not, etc. The list, like I implied, could go on and on.

So what makes me different? What makes me think I have something important to put out there for other blogging individuals to potentially read and mock? Well...I'm not sure. I used to think bloggers were simply those types who couldn't stand to not have their opinions heard by someone other than the pizza guy or the banker on Tuesdays. But now I've seen plenty of examples of people who aren't deathly annoying who do in fact blog. Shock. So here I am, about to join the ranks of those over-opinionated people who have that dire need to share their lives. And why shouldn't we? Why shouldn't we have the right to display our thoughts all over this great wide world web and see what happens? Who knows really what could happen. Maybe something great like connection in an isolated world. The worst that could happen is that no one cares. Here's hoping that doesn't happen.

So enjoy. Laugh. Cry. Feel excited, motivated, discouraged, angry, deeply depressed, maybe even encouraged, and hopefully see something you didn't before courtesy a la my mind.

I'll just be here. Blogging. Walking through just another day.
