Some of you may have noticed that the most recent post on this blog, up until now, was almost 3 months ago. For this I sincerely apologize - partly to the two people who may actually read it and partly to myself. Blogging is a fun, creative release, but requires disciplined effort. When I started this blog, I made a pact to myself that I would write something, even if it was just one line, everyday in order to maintain some semblance of sanity throughout the school year. Obviously I have shattered that pact - almost as easily as Johnny Depp shatters hearts. I struggled with the same problem as a kid when I used to try and keep diaries. My mom, and Jo from Little Women, always told me that journaling was the best way to become a writer. I tried in earnest, and would actually write 2-3 pages every night, but my intentions usually faltered after a week when the anxiety of middle school life made sleep look like a more attractive use of my time.
Now that I'm in university, my schedule is busier and more erratic then ever. There's class to attend, homework to do, groceries to buy, articles to write, radio shows to give, friends to make, hygiene to look after (this cause is most often abandoned), sleep to get and, most importantly, fun to have. It seems highly unlikely that blogging could ever make it to the top of that list. Today I realized though that I currently have no method of un-jumbling my mind. Beverly Hills 90210, which has become a recent obsession of mine, is hardly up to the task. If I continue on in this way, this jumbled mind way, for long, my sanity will pretty much be up for grabs. Thus, I shall blog.
