Today is a day where I’m trying something new (hint: it’s writing on this website). For one thing, this isn’t my normal style of writing. If I expect an audience, then I write as if I’m writing an article for a newspaper, or a paper for a class. If I’m writing for myself, then I’m composing little Tweets or writing in shorthand in my journal. So this is something new.
I can’t say whether I’m excited or not. This is more of an experience for me. I don’t know what I’m going to do with it. I could publish this and then delete my account within the hour. Or maybe I’ll actually keep writing. Write the stories that I don’t get to tell elsewhere. That would be nice.
The fact is I’m a busy college student, so that last part was an idealized fantasy. It’s hard to keep writing when you already have to write for your classes, not to mention I am actually a part of the student newspaper. But, we’ll see. This is something new.
There are so many topics that I want to explore in my own way, and I guess I can do that here. I won’t lie, I’m picturing this as a blog right now. And that’s fine. No rules saying I can’t treat this like a blog in a certain sense. I just have to figure out how to stop myself from writing 5 posts in one day, because honestly that’s what I feel like doing right now. The hyperfocusing is getting to me. Maybe that’s something I can write about in the future.
