Metablogging

I read an article about a series of blogs about wives who were cheating on their husbands. The article brought up some interesting points about why these women blog in the first place. I then went to read a few entries on one of those blogs; totally was not what I expected. Quite interesting.

But it lead me to a question: Why do people blog? What drives people to share details about their lives in such a public manner? Is it the (somewhat) anonymity? Is it the need to talk to anyone that will listen? Is it the belief that your view of life is unique? Is it a way to show a side of you that isn't normally seen? Is it a desire to fit in? Is it sheer boredom?

So why do you blog?

Hello there

The blog is back! And I have an idea for a new theme of my blog. But I can't execute it yet. Perhaps once school starts.

As sophomore year rapidly approaches, let's talk about my expectations/predictions!

1. I am going to reach my breaking point. For some reason, I am now involved in twice as many activities as I was last semester and I still want to add more.

2. I am going to relax when it comes to my future. I've realized that most people don't end up where they expect, so there's no point in planning out every single detail. Though it's difficult not to plan your life when you're constantly hearing talk about the future.

3. I am going to grow emotionally. I hope this never stops. And there's one particular thing that I think will really test my emotional growth (in a good way! yes? maybe? no? * worry *)

4. I am going to do something spontaneous, that I always wanted to do, but never did. I have an idea of what it is, but I may end up doing something else.

5. I am going to better understand my beliefs (and not just religiously). Hearing board might help with that, but I think just experiencing life will help me realize where exactly my moral compass lies.

Go sophomore year. =)
