As the title suggests, I am a newcomer to the blogging generation. I like to think of myself as a "hip" guy or someone on the cutting edge of technology and knowledge. This blog might not be the best indication of this as I am now 19, almost turning 20, and this is my first official post on a blogging network. Of course I used to have a Xanga where blogging was, in my eyes, first introduced to the world, however, I didn't really take it that seriously and so here I am old and inexperienced. It hurts to think that kids that are 5 years younger than I am are more fluent and know the "ins and outs" of blogging that I have yet to discover.
The real inspiration for this blog has to be credited to my fiance, Amy Backes. She has had one for years now and I never really hoped on the bandwagon. She never pressured me to create one and for a while I never thought I would have enough thoughts and ideas to put into a blog that I would be able to constantly update. Those thoughts coupled with the reality that I might not be as exciting and interesting as I think I am pushed me away from the creation of this site, until today. Today I thought to myself, "Why not? Why don't I just make a blog and do my best to keep up on it?" This sparked intrigue and with the fascinating things I see around my college campus everyday, it is indeed enough to write about. So I give you all my first blog. My first attempt to reach out to the world during this "globalization" thanks to media forms such as the Internet and TV. I am taking advantage of this fact and hope to do so many more times.
I want to try to leave each post with a thought that I believe is relevant to everyone's life:
Whenever you don't want to do something because it seems to overwhelming, just dive right into it and after a while, it won't seem so bad. This can relate to homework, work at your place of occupation, or maybe even some kind of relationship. Like Nike says, "Just do it."
Until next time.
