New Blog
Around the New Year, I started to get that old familiar feeling. I really wanted to write something again. Amidst all these new experiences and feelings, I really wanted an outlet. I wanted a new blog.
I guess this feeling isn’t that new, but it’s manifested itself in a few different ways over the years. In high school, my “blog” was private, known only to the few that I gave the Geocities URL. In college, it was UMBC Underground, the alternative news source that I created to rival the existing school newspaper and bring about a sense of community among students. This I wrote under an alias. And over the years, there have consistently been journals filled with some reflections but mostly with to-do’s and temporarily relevant snippets.
But I realized: this will be the first blog I’ve ever done that’s public. Like, with my real name, right there for all to see. Honestly, it feels terrifying. I’ve been planning and delaying this opening post for about a week, a little too freaked about the openness and task of actually finding things to write about consistently to start. Though still a little spooked, I’m going to give it a shot. Stay tuned.
