Quick Update

It’s been three months since my last blog entry. Lazy I know, but I’ll get better. This will be just a quick update.

The other day, I’m not sure why, but all of a sudden I wanted a camera, so my dad gave me his Canon EOS Rebel G. I just need to buy some batteries for it, and soon I will have pictures in my blogs.

My school semester is almost over, one more day and I’m free for the winter. I’m all signed up for my spring classes. I’m only taking three, but that’s a good amount for me. Let’s see, I’m taking English 101, Philosophy 101, and Creative writing. Next fall I’ll be taking English 102, Philosophy 201, Journalism and photography.

Well, that’s it for now.

Where to Head?

As I awoke this morning, I was angry how late I had gone to bed the night before. I was having trouble waking up. I had to leave for the bus by 8:30, and it was all ready 8:10. So I decided to skip class today, it’s not that big of a deal, my teacher isn’t going to be there any way. Just as long I don’t miss any more classes, I’ll be fine. So here I am, late for the bus, and writing in my blog.

So, what is my blog going to be about? I’ve just started it yesterday, so I don’t know where I’m going quite yet. I would like to talk about everything. Some politics, some philosophy, maybe even useless facts that I know; but I should try to write about one specific subject, or at least target one specific audience. I would like to target people not unlike myself.

I am a free thinker, a skeptic, a Bright. Many of you would prefer to call me an atheist; although that does not explain my views. Atheist just means no God. I have a naturalistic worldview, free of supernatural and mystical elements. Just because I don’t believe in all that doesn’t mean I don’t like it. I love to write about the supernatural. It is my favorite subject.

I am a huge music fan; I have a spiritual connection to it. I like mostly Rock&Roll, the classics are great, but modern is cool to. I also listen to Jazz, classical and well just about everything else. Music is one of the great ways to express yourself, and have other’s feel how you feel.

I am a libertarian, which means I am not a republican, or a democrat. I sit in the middle, sometimes I swing to the far right field, and sometimes I swing to the far left field. I do think this country is in need of a great change. I don’t know if Obama will do that for us, but I’m hoping so.

I am the holder of too much useless knowledge, I don’t know why. I just know that clove cigarettes were originally for women, I know that Jim Morrison was born a year after Jimmy Hendrix, and that he died a year after Jimmy; and much more useless facts.

I’m going to start some other blogs too, there going to be fictional blogs. I’ll tell the story through the eyes of my main character.

Well, what else is there about me? I guess I’ll tell more as we go through these blogs. I hope I can catch your attention.

Where to start?

Like all children, when I was young, I lived in a Fantasy World. I was a top secret spy, and mystical creatures lived down the street. I went on quests to save the princess and slay the dragon. Now, unlike most people, I never grew out of this. I still live in a fantasy world. Well, I don’t believe in unicorns, dragons, or fairies; but I love them deeply.

My whole life, stories have been born into and reside in my mind. When ever I go somewhere, watch something, listen to something, a story would pop into my head. I love these stories so much; that I decided that I want to share them with the world. But I never seem to be able to write them down.

Through out school I had trouble because I have severe A.D.D. It was always difficult to pay attention in class. Homework was boring, and never finished. My grammar, spelling, and punctuation have suffered. So it’s been difficult to start writing.

In high school I began writing poems, I never thought they were any good, but many people tell me they are, and now I love writing them. Poetry is a great way to express myself, and get feedback from others.

I’m hoping to improve on my writing skills so I can start writing my stories down. Maybe some day soon I will have books of my own published and on bookshelves all over the country.

I've decided to start a blog, so I can write, I need to write as much as I can. Hopefully I can get feedback from others, so I know how I am doing

Thank you
