So, this is a first. I have never "blogged" before (if that even is such a word) and find the idea of a public diary kind of strange. I'm sure, for some, it can be a kind of emotional release but really, does everyone out there in cyberspace really need to read about it. I'm aware of movies such as "Marley and Me" and "Julie and Julia" in which the focus was about the main character writing a blog but I'm still not convinced that everyone and their mother needs to do the same. Although, due to my strong desire to graduate I will attempt what I have always avoided and become...a blogger.
