.:A New Dive:.

I had never given much thought to blogging but I happened to come across a line in a student's application to Lawrence University in a College Admission exercise. That line intrigued me to no end. The line was in the section where the student had to fill in their extracurricular activities. She had put "Blogging" as one of them. I at first thought it was absurd. For right up there with blogging was "Chief Correspondent in the School Newspaper" and "6th Grade Mathematics Teacher". Why would anyone even think to put this teenage hobby in their college application? Wouldn't it pale in comparison to the other two? What a fool I thought.

In the middle of my harsh judgement however I caught myself and realized that I'd began to act ignorantly. I was in the middle of doing something that I would have berated one of my own peers for, for a different topic mind but the same basic action. Ignorantly judging.

So I've come here to explore the intricacies of "Blogging". Even as I write this my first ever serious blog I've begun to appreciate just how relaxing this can be. I also feel that it will help me in the future. I'm not sure how but I feel something brewing. Something that might just change me, for the better.

So I start a new aspect of my life. Blogging. I look forward to feedback from everyone who cares to join me on this journey.
