So, this whole blog thing, for me at least, is kinda weird. Because I’m pretty sure just about no one knows this exists, except maybe one of my friends, and I’m still doubtful about that. So essentially whatever I write here is for my own interest only. So it’s like my journal (which I guess harkens back to the origins of the word ‘blog’ which is a sort of portmanteau/abbreviation thing of web log), but it’s so much more public than my journal, because any fool that’s wandering around the internet (and I don’t mean that in a derogatory way. We’re all fools wandering around the internet. Because if we had anything better to do, we would be doing it) can read what I put here. So, I’m almost certain that no one is reading this, but anybody could read this if they wanted to. It’s like leaving my journal on the subway, but it’s a subway that everybody in the world rides. I guess only people who speak English could get anything from this blog, and there is this wonderful shield of anonymity, but still. It’s weird. I can’t decide what I want to write, because I could be all philosophical or something or bear my soul, but I won’t because I don’t want to random internet troll to know my inner workings.
But then again, if I don't write anything interesting, there will be no point to this blog, because I won't get anything out of it (I like talking/writing/thinking/whatever about interesting things) and if my blog is boring, no one will read it (horror upon horror!). No that I really care if anyone reads this (actually, I would probably feel really awkward if people I didn't really know started reading my blog. But then again, I'm like a big bucket of awkward, so moving on).
I don't really know what I was expecting to get out of this post. Because it definitely hasn't changed my mind about anything about my blog. I'm just gonna keep doing what I've been doing, so it doesn't really matter. I guess I just wanted to put my thoughts down or something. Who knows?
