The Truth

The truth is I am terrible at blogging. I'm inconsistent, lazy, indifferent, tangent-prone, cynical, hyper and emotional. And neurotic and moody and paranoid and OCD and a whole lot of other wonderful human characteristics that create thoughts that will probably get put on here. Sounds like a strange, bad, socially awkward combination to me lol. Or maybe just a heightened average person. Maybe we're all socially awkward freaks but ANYWAY I've decided I want to try this out again.

Those first two posts are a lie. They were taken from the mass emails I sent out to family and friends narrating my new found adventures here in Laie. So they don't quite count as blogging. Mass media? Maybe. After all, I'm queen of the world ;) Heed my words. No don't. Well DO. But don't.

I had an old blog from last year that I was real good at for a while. You can still go read it if anyone cares for the link but you'll soon find that after a month it slowly dwindled into hitless death, waste of space internet. I got a little obsessive for a while but then it just turned into a vent zone. Meh.

But I do write a lot. A lot a lot. I write a letter to my wonderful boy at home every day. I try to journal at least three times a week. And I'm currently working, working on one novel now, developing more for later, dabbling in playwrighting, spontaneously scribbling out lyrics and jotting down some short stories that I gave orally that I'll probably end up posting on here. Though for the record, short stories aren't really my style. Cuz guess what? I'm detailed oriented too :) But I love it and it's something I am trying to focus on this semester and further develop myself as an author of sorts. Blogging, of course, can be very helpful for all of the above.

As for the name of this new creative space just waiting for me to fill it up, Slug Production is what I decided I'd name a punk/rocker indie band if I ever had one. Of course, I can't really sing any of those styles or as of the moment play any of the instruments required for that ensemble so I guess that's fairly inapplicable. Actually, it was Slug Reproduction but I figured that was offensive and inappropriate and nobody would appreciate that popping up every time they decided to open this up, if ever they decide to open it up, so you only have to endure it for one brief introductory post. Though if you don't know how slugs reproduce, then go look it up on wikipedia because it is fairly interesting. And great white sharks. Go look them up too. Fascinating.

If you didn't catch it from the header, I like caffeine. A lot. Vanilla Coke be good and I bought some yesterday so this oughta be fun.

But I should definitely go to sleep now since I spent a whole lot of time being a perfectionist over the blog layout and now it's one in the morning. Cheerio mates.
