Sounds like…

Hmmm… so what does one put on their first blog entry? I imagine it’s a little bit like writing on Xanga (remember those?) where you post any and everything that went on in your life that day. I used to get on that thing religiously because something inside me thought that the world cared. Well, 5 years and a forgotten Xanga password later, I realized they don’t. I mean really, who cares about reading how Sally’s first day of 7th grade went? Or that her boyfriend cheated on her with her best friend? (Well, the last one actually would have made me more of a devoted blog reader if that kind of juice was on there every day.) And yet, here I am again. Not on Xanga, but on another website simply because a million thoughts have been crossing my mind everyday and I’ve nowhere to put them. True, I could always just go the traditional route and get the notebook with the snazzy cover and colorful pages (don’t act like you don’t know. There’s nothing like writing in a journal with pink poetic butterflies). But instead, I’ve chosen, like millions of people around the world, to share my thoughts on the computer. I also hope to be slightly more devoted to this than the abandoned journals sitting in my desk drawer. I hope to be more devoted to this than my Xanga even (although getting smiley face comments after a good entry was always a nice motivation to return and leave my hungry audience wanting for more).

So I’ve rambled more than I intended but I have come to one conclusion which I guess is at least a nice start to my first blog entry. I hear the clicking of my acryclic (dying to be refilled) nails pounding the keyboard in a haste to get my ever-fleeting, not half as brilliant as I think they are thoughts onto the screen before I forget them.

The Xanga queen strikes again…
