I'm fiercely determined to keep a blog. The idea of a pretty bound book to call my "journal" sounds much more appealing, but I admit - I love the interweb and want to bleed it dry of all it has to offer. I have to say, though. I am super rusty with words. Unfortunately, since piling on numerous English Lit courses, I haven't had the time to write for pleasure. I lost myself in a sea of MLA citations. I felt stifled by the rigidity of my class assignments and was actually told by one professor - "Whatever you do, don't be creative." However, you can only repress those urges for so long. That, along with a string of other inspirations, led me to the Blogging Bandwagon.
Additionally, there is something to be said about the power of a backspace button. I found myself reading through my old journals recently and had to fight off the urge to rip out certain pages. Although I don't believe in censoring myself....I take comfort in the fact that when I write, I'm purging. Which is another reason for this blog, I guess. Writing to rid.
That being said, welcome to my Blog. I look forward to recording my mundane adventures and awkward confessions so that I may one day look back on this and click the "Delete" button.
