I've often wondered why people keep blogs. Most of those people often display qualities like narcissism and have exhibitionist tendencies. It follows the phenomenon of Reality TV shows that have as its most blatant purpose to display the worst realities of human characteristics as an example to the masses.
I do have to say that I'm a fan of a number of well-written and intelligent blogs. There are surprisingly a lot of intelligent people out there who keep blogs! I want to be able to write well. I want to be one of those well-spoken people who are admired and respected by others. Maybe this can be an economical way of improving my writing without having to register in expensive university courses and increase my mounting debtload? That's what I'm hoping. I don't want to add more fodder to the ridiculous circus out there.
Maybe it can be a way for me to vent and complain... but wait: I do that every day of my life. Life is too short and the world is too nasty to have a dark grey cloud follow me around at every move. I have enough of those grey clouds here in Vancouver anyways.
Besides, it might just be a quick way to let my friends and family back home in Ontario (or wherever else on this beautiful world they may reside) keep tabs on me and what I'm going through. Maybe they might learn something about me that they didn't previously know. Maybe I might just make more friends this way. Maybe I just might learn to love blogging for the sake of blogging. Maybe I might learn to express my complex thoughts and views in a more sophisticated way.
