The Purpose


...so...blogging...


This past week has been the most difficult in my academic career. The strange aspect of this? I have had no assignments, mid-terms, or anything at all due. I have been simply trying to write an essay and having very little return for my effort. For my efforts, probably a combined twenty-five hours over the past four days I have produced a grand total of 436 words. Amazing eh? So I'm stuck here trying desperatly to figure out how to stretch my total into 3,000. So whats the problem?


Well, the problem is that there is more than one problem. Have you ever been faced with decision upon decision, fear upong fear, idea upon idea, until your unable to stop thinking about the same things in succession? It becomes like those stations that only play Friends: sure its great at the beginning but common, how many times can a person take those six people before their head explodes. It has gotten to the point that I can't even sleep at night, lying awake until 2,3,4 in the morning. As soon as you push one thought out, the next one comes in and your wide awake, counting how many times my computer light flashes (I've made it to 200; great considering the number, horrible considering the task). So the goal of these blogs, and there is a goal, believe it or not, is to simply voice the ideas, thoughts, etc. I guess that's what blogging is anyway, right?


Ok, so.... blogging...we'll see.
