Neglection

YES, I do realize that my poor blog has been neglected and left bare of new posts lately. I know that each and every one of my followers eagerly awaits a new post every day (I'm pretty sure that I imagine that, but let's pretend that it's the truth. Just for now.).
I have not lost the blogging spirit.
I have not stopped taking pictures.
I have not died.
I have not taken a world wide exploration with only a backpack.
I HAVE finished school. (Clapping and cheering). Because I have wanted to say that for awhile, let me repeat that. I HAVE FINISHED SCHOOL.
That is, a small part of what I hope my schooling consists of. But I have finished for now and I don't know what the next part will be right now, SO... I will blog lots more often. And I will take lots more pictures. And I will post lots more recipes. And I will learn how to play the piano better. And I will read some good books that have been stacking up waiting for me. And I will go to California THIS week to visit friends. I really will.
Over and out.

Why blog?

Oh my. What have I done? The moment I pushed the 'create blog' button, hysterical laughs started bubbling up my throat. Literally hysterical.

I have always been annoyed with blogs. I thought to myself - "those blog-obsessed people are so DUMBBBBB". "Why do they feel the need to share their entire life with the whole world?" "Do they even HAVE a life?"

AND THEN....

a bad, BAD thing happened.

I READ some blogs. It started with my sister's (they always say it starts with something little, ya know).... and then some of her followers.... and then some friends' blogs... and then some of THEIR followers... and THEN... random people that I don't even know! This is BAAAD.

And you know what?

I. LIKED. IT. Oh I'm really embarrassed.

So now I have to eat everything I've ever said about how people that start blogs are dumb.

SO... my purpose for this blog is to share pictures and thoughts with my friends and family, and THAT IS ALL.

HA, who am I kidding, no one's gonna read it anyways. Except maybe Allison. Allison, I can count on you, eh?

I'm still laughing hysterically...
