Does the Internet Really Need Another Blog?

Probably not.  But I'm writing one anyway.  There are a few reasons I've been wanting to start one of these:

1. I have a lot of thoughts.  Sometimes I like to share them.  Well, truthfully, I always like to share them.  I'm incredibly vocal with my opinions, and just self-aggrandizing enough to think the Internet will care about them.  But if you keep reading, you can decide for yourself if any of my thoughts were worth sharing.


2. I'm a good writer, but I never really write outside of what's required of me.  I've got no illusions of being a famous novelist, but I've been looking for an outlet to work on my writing and be a little bit creative.  I think a blog will suit my purposes in this regard.


3. It helps to get things off your chest.  Just like every other college student trying to figure out his life, I get stressed out thinking about school, relationships, the future, etc. This seems like as good a way as any to unload some of that stress. I apologize in advance for any cynical ranting.

I plan to use this blog to discuss pretty much whatever I want, from film to politics to general musings on life.  I can't guarantee I'll post with any consistency, or even that I'll still be writing this in a year.  For now though, it seems like something worth doing.  Stay tuned.
