So, I wanted to make a real post at some point tonight, but I wasn't really bitten by the study bug until late and now I really should be getting to bed, so I'm just going to close with something simple.
I reached my goal 50 years ahead of schedule! Thats right, I now have 4 followers, even if one of you is, for whatever reason, invisible. So, I have a message for you 4 (3 really, one of you already does this- also this can apply to you even if you don't follow me.)
And that message is-
Blog!
I urge you to do this for two reasons.
Reason the First:
To me, blogging is almost therapeutic. Its a way for me to get stuff off my chest, or just to talk and bs about things that are on my mind. It's sort of like a diary, but anyone can read it. A friend of mine said he prefers a real diary- and I can definitely understand why. But to me this basically is my diary of sorts. Sure, I talk about a limited number of things, but they're things I would talk about in a diary anyway. And I've decided to put this whole thing on the internet knowing that not many people are going to read this, and that those that do, I wont mind it if they see whats here. I'm not slandering anyone really and I take care to hide people's identities. If you're mentioned, then you know who you are and thats that. I appreciate you reading, even though I'm too shy/embarrased to say it. Also, I kind of like writing about things that I wouldnt really talk about with people. It makes me vulnerable, to a point. People never really make themselves vulnerable to another person unless they're really good friends or intimate with each other- and this is a way for me to do that without either of those pre-requisites.
Reason the Second:
I urge you to blog because I only know one other person who blogs on blogspot and I want something to read! You can talk about anything- it doesn't have to be personal! I just want to read someone else's insights into stuff!
Yea... that's really it for that one- selfish I know, but I really think that there's a lot to be gained personally from blogging. Also, I want something to read.
If I come up with any more reasons to blog, I'll be sure to either edit this one and add to it or make a new post with Reason the Third, etc.
Until next time
Also, as an aside-
I haven't introduced any one new to the cast recently. Maybe I'll do that sometime soon...

Okay. You've convinced me. Not that you've been bugging me all semester to start a blog, but so much that the idea was in my head and you gave me a slight push.
