Introduction

So, I decided to start a blog for a number of reasons. First of all, I am an English major who would like to write for a career. If I want to get become an accomplished writer, I need to start practicing. What better way than to write for the whole world to see? None, exactly. Although perfection is completely unattainable, I would like to get as close to it as possible by means of practice.

However, practice isn't the only reason to blog. If you were look inside my head, chances are you would run away frightened at the chaos you would find. I have a hard time organizing my thoughts unless I am putting them into writing. If you've ever talked to me, you probably have seen that I have a hard time putting my thoughts into words sometimes. This is most likely because I have a tendency to have my words come tumbling out of my open mouth before they have a chance to cross my brain. Writing them out forces me to think about what I say before I put it out there, and it let's me take my time.

Often times, I tend to have a profound thought (or just even just an amusing thought) that I would like to share with someone...but noooobody's around. Due to my treacherous memory, by time I strike up a conversation with someone later, I've completely forgotten what I was thinking about. Here is an opportunity for me to share those thoughts, whether people care about them or not.

So there it is, the reason I have decided to start a blog. It's time I start vocalizing the things that are important to me and the things that I find interesting or just plain amusing. Please feel free to comment, or ask me any questions at www.formspring.me/GIJimbo929. Thank you, and good night.
