Mandatory Intro

What would a blog be without the standard, 'I am creating a blog' introduction. To be completely honest, I've always been of the opinion that unless you are a complete genius with pearls of wisdom to share, without which the world at large would suffer tremendously and possibly be plunged back into the dark ages, or you lead a ridiculously exciting life involving snowball fights with panda bears in the arctic circle and diving for hidden treasures off the coast of Africa... I forgot the beginning of my sentence by now. Oh, right. So unless one belongs to either of the 2 categories above, I don't believe one should start a blog. Because, quite frankly, who cares? Nobody but you and possibly your closest friends are interested in your personal life and if you're blogging about news and politics... well, see sentence #2 for my opinion on that matter.
But I guess what it all boils down to is that the Internet is not a notebook or a file cabinet, and therefore, we don't have to worry about it running out of space when cluttered up with junk. People can add whatever content or not-content they'd like and if you, or me in this case, don't want to read it, no one's forcing it down your throat. So, on that note, I am throwing my blog out there into cyberspace to be read or not read at humanity's discretion.

You forgot the mandatory "I really don't care if anyone reads this or not, I'm writing it for myself, not for you, I hope you enjoy it if you're here, if you're not, you're not reading this anyway." Or maybe you're just honest and willing to acknowledge the fact that if no one reads it you may as well just be writing in M'soft Notepad or a Real Life Notepad.
And, wow, 22! We're big already.
As usual, dear, love your writing, can't wait to read more :)

Wow. Just in case I forgot how odd you really are...
On that note, I hope you continue though! :-)
