Something New

My last attempt to enter the competitive blogosphere was, what most would deem, a failure. I knew I'd left very few traces of myself on the internet and had much trouble finding them again, two long years later. Luckily, Google is the best Keeper a girl could ask for and tracked down my former self, MoreAdventurous. So, here begins a sister-blog.

Unlike most of the vain patrons of the blogging world - as of now this project entirely lacks focus and purpose. Without said traits, the blog is almost an exclusive product of narcissism. For a lame attempt to save face, I'll list a few things I hope to accomplish here:

• I am living in a New Place. Both physically and mentally. I moved to Chicago six weeks ago and am carving out a little bit of life here. I also relinquished a title I held for eighteen long years, that of a "full-time student" (some consider that relinquishment a merger into the world of "unemployed". I prefer "new place". It has a nicer ring to it and keeps me from welling up uncontrollably).
• So much of my time is wasted in coffee shops and in front of the damned laptop. I don't know if a Blog-Without-Purpose is the sort of distraction I need, but it is worth an attempt.
• Man, I love blogs.
• While living in this New Place, much of my time is dedicated to searching for a post-grad purpose (Note the considerable amount of time I waste on my laptop and connect those dots!). The phrase "cover letter" is enough to send shivers down each vertebrae. With that in mind, I'd like to spend more time with words and the art of stringing them together. Perhaps the more time spent on this seemingly docile activity (that I actually quite enjoy), will remind me I'm fully capable as a writer and, well, in general.
• Gotta give the public what they want!!

So with the creation of another online distraction - here we go. While, "we" will likely remain me, myself, and my cappuccino - I'm confident I can beat my previous blogging record of three entries with the venture.
