Oh my.

I did it.

I created a blog.

Call it self-indulgement, call it a form of venting, but I did it.

I'm not too sure why I finally decided to take the 2 minutes to finish up the registration process (apparently I've signed on before), but I think venting and self-glorification can be fun.

I've also realized how much I love writing (because somehow I forget...). I may not be the very best at it, but I love it, and I don't think I'll ever stop loving it. Maybe that's why I've been feeling so frustrated about nothing lately. Because I haven't really been able to put my thoughts down on paper and sort through the piles of crap that lay in my head and just sit and come up once in a while to haunt me and make me feel completely overwhelmed and pathetic.

Or I think a better reason is I went to a Chronicle Alumni Open House/Workshop and I realized how planning my life away is not a good idea. At all. I need to stop. Don't get me wrong--I'll still have days where I stress out, but as to what I want out of "life," I'm going to leave that up to time, mistakes and chance. I'm going to place faith in the unknown and just have a great time while I can. I wish I realized this a long time ago (aka since the beginning of time) and though I've come a long way, I still have a lot to learn, a lot to experience, and a lot to bitch about, so why should I lock myself into a set agenda?

So here's to blogging, and expect a lot more to come.

Tenative To-Do List (not an anal one, I swear):
-learn some html so I can spruce this up
-stress out less, because maybe then my back won't feel like a solid brick wall
-sleep more, but that's relative
-sing more, because I think more people need to listen to me while I shower
