Why I Want To Blog

I used to have this idea that blogs were pointless. Honestly, I thought of them as a way for people to bitch and moan about things that only they cared about, and I always figured, who would read them? It probably didn't help that I grew up around Xanga. Sometimes I go back and look at my old Xanga, and it cracks me up... like, what was I thinking? I was always like "I like this guy, I wonder if he likes me? lolz", and things like that. And yes, I admit I was guilty of typing words like "aLwAyZ" and "i'm going 2 the mall tonight =D". I look back now and it's a great way to remember the old times I used to have (though the details of trips to the mall when I was 13 aren't exactly clear in my mind these days...), but EVERYONE had a Xanga, and we all used it for ridiculous posts, so I guess I always found blogs a little silly.

Well, I'm a lot different now then I was when I had Xanga. I wonder still if anyone will actually read my blogs, cause I'm sure they don't really care what I have to say about things. But either way, I bet a few years, or even months, down the road, I'll look back, remember, and smile. So that's why I want to blog.

Don't get me wrong, I think you will enjoy hearing what I have to say (if anyone is even reading this). I've got a lot of stories to tell, with more forming every day. I have stories about random events that happen every day. I have stories about fights. Stories about love. About good times, and bad. I have crazy stories, about things I'm not proud of. I have stories about things that I want to open up about. This will be my stress reliever, because I'm in college now, as a freshman, and I have free time to write, but I have interesting things to say (and I hope you'll find them interesting as well).

I like to think that I'm on a higher level of thinking. I don't mean that in a conceited way at all, I'm really a nice person. But I have an amazing mind, and I don't know if the people I know, love, and care about realize that. But I do, and maybe one day they'll see this and realize it too. Until then, I'm gonna write about whatever's on my mind but for the sake of any readers, I'll form it into something that is intelligent, but still interesting.

I'm also hoping to post pictures. Because all of this text is slightly boring and hard to read. I love writing, but I know reading is time-consuming and kind of boring, so I'll try to incorporate pictures and maybe even videos, to jazz things up.

Anyway, I hope you (whoever you may be) enjoy reading this blog. I'm gonna try to get into a habit of writing, and I hope that my story is one worth hearing for you, cause it is in my mind.
