Soo...yeah.

  I know I'm coming late to the blogging scene, but writing has never been something that peaked my interest. My term papers leave me scrambling to meet the minimum requirement of pages/words. Why spend 300 words of fluff to get a 50 word point across? Brevity is a highly favored trait in my eyes. Don't get me wrong, I love the written word, as long as someone else is the one writing it. I was the child who asked for diaries and journals only to leave them unopened and unused. Even now, I have doubts as to how often I'll get around to actually blogging. Great way to get people excited about reading my blog, right? Though it is the beginning of a new year, creating this blog was not in response to a half-drunken resolution to express myself more. A few of my friends have lauded writing as being the best way to organize their thoughts. As of late, my thoughts have been...scattered. I have a vague sense of the direction it'll take, but who knows? A nice blend of prediction and surprise seem to be at the heart of the best art.
