My First Blog

Not really sure what to write when there is no given topic to center my thought's around. Usually I write about whatever it is that's on my mind when I'm in front of a blank screen and/or sheet of paper. I have kept journal's since I could write. The first few book's are difficult at times to decode and I find myself in awe of how much I had to say when I could barely say anything at all. It was because of those journal's and their uncanny ability to put my emotional character at ease that I originally thought I would major in writing and make a living out of it. Though as I have grown older I have come to realize that I prefer writing for myself more so than for anything and/or anyone else. My grammar skills and spelling have always been mediocre and thus have left me frustrated and unwilling to specify my studies on perfecting my pass time activity. Last semester I finished my last required class for my Women and Gender Studies Major and this semester I am beginning to conquer my minor in writing. I guess I wanted to learn more about the things I think about the most so I could write about them more clearly and therefore change something through the art of writing. Knowledge is power as you know and thus I figured knowing as much as I could about the things that I think about would ultimately equate some form of literature.
