My Very First Blogspot

Well this is my very first blogspot.com blog and I thought it'd be a bigger moment than what I expected but it turns out that my online writing is just a continuum of free thought that travels through various mediums. From the early xanga blogs to the myspace corporately controlled arena to the facebook network of tagged photos and "notes." Now this. Blogspot.

At least it is a proper blog. Myspace is just a way to connect to your friends who didn't join the mainstream collegestudentfueled Facebook extravaganza that makes stalking look like child's play. Blogspot will hopefully allow me a chance to write short, non-twittering writings, life exposing stories.

And here's a story for you: I'm planning my escape from Portland, OR. That's all I got to say for that.

Currently I am reading McTeague by Frank Norris. It is very entertaining and wholesome without the aridity of British Victorian Literature. Nothing will ever replace a good book in my opinion. No internet wonder or sensation can compare to the ink and paper.

People don't read. That's one of Portland's redeeming quality: it is very literate. It's almost too literate if that's at all possible.

I just sent in my graduate school application for a Master's degree in Library and Information Science. I'm curling my toes in anticipation.

I hope everyone a Happy New Year. Feel free to comment or whatever it is blogspotters like to do.
