First post, first blog.

The last time I kept a journal of any kind was back in grade school, because back then it was a mandatory part of the school day. The teacher would take the last ten minutes of the class day, and have us students write in our journals, usually the teacher gave us a vague guideline, such as "what do you have planned for the summer?" or "what career do you see yourself going into?" That sort of stuff. Eventually I thought of the idea of keeping a journal as equal to how a girl keeps a diary, so I saw the idea of writing down your feelings and ideas down on paper as feminine, so I stopped doing it. I lived my life up until this moment where I find myself writing my thoughts and feelings down, not on paper, but as data to be stored online. Somehow the idea of writing down your feelings is not so strange or "feminine" as I thought in my teenage years.
So here I am, it's late in the morning approximately 2:10 am on a Friday, and I have class at 8:30 am. Why am I writing in this blog so late(or early) in the morning? It's because I feel that the amount of thoughts and ideas running around in my head, is causing me to become less focused in my day-to-day activities. I have to unload some of this baggage somewhere, and I thought a blog would be a good place to store it. I spent no more than 15 min customizing my blog, and it's still crude and empty as I'm writing this, but that will change. I have plans to post some of my pictures, because digital photography is fascinating and I want to be able to store them beside my thoughts and ideas here on this blog. My goal is to write at least once a day and I have a feeling that this post will be among my longest, because in this one, I have to explain to myself WHY I am here making this blog, and WHAT I plan on doing with it.
I'm not sure if anybody will ever read this, I'm not even sure if I myself will read it again and that is alright, the blog would have served it's purpose and that's all I need.

Current Emotional state: Anxious - I need sleep, and the blog isn't customized yet
Current Physical state: Healthy - a little cold and hungry
Current Thought: "I have to study more"
Current goal for the day: Get some Sleep, go to classes, play my guitar
Current goal for the week: update the blog daily, keep up in my classes and labs.
