Breaking the blogspot cherry!

Well, well, well.  This is officially my first blog on blogspot.  Xanga just emailed me and said "We miss you!" but I'm not quite sure if the feeling is mutual.  I use to regularly write and reflect upon my adolescent days; complaining about boys, ranting about how stressed I am from school, and just lashing out on the world of its unexpected and unpleasant surprises.  I wrote in a required journal for my high school Peer Counseling class and at random times on Xanga.  I stopped writing for myself for about...1 1/2 years.  It's been a long break, and I'm ready to start again.  Hopefully, getting random neurotic thoughts out of my head will put me to sleep better.  

Though blogging in a new website for a new start from my high school years feels different, I must say it is still the same.  I still complain about how smelly boys are, how school is a bunch of poodley doodley poo, and how crappy life can get sometimes.  I don't think I've matured that much more...but I wonder, why do I do it? It is very therapeutic to me, and I would love to someday look back on my archived blogs and see where I was at the time I wrote them.  As like everyone human being, I am constantly growing.  My ideas evolve and change, my body (unfortunately) is changing, and my mind expands from the knowledge I gain from the experiences during my college years.  To reflect and see how I have developed would be a learning experience.  Another reason why I want to start writing for myself again is to rid my neurotic thoughts, or shall I say...improve my thought processing.  Without my neurotic way of thinking, I don't think I'd be me...but sometimes, I honestly want to just clearly speak and express myself without so many thoughts running through my mind at once!  So anyway, here's to this first blog.  For self-reflection, clearer thoughts, and...anything I want to say.  Because this is for ME!  Oh, how it feels so gratifying to say that.
