In My Mind

First impressions are and aren’t everything

No but seriously, can we begin now?

It seems as if I was a bit fearful of what the potential outcomes of a personal blog could. Initially, people would tell me that only “certain types of people” were into the whole blogging thing. But then I left the country and got all introspective.

Yet, the trigger to write down some of my life adventures didn’t fire immediately. In fact, it’s been over a year since I’ve been back from my European escapades and I’m just now taking the time to engage my innermost feelings and write them down in the great big world of WWWs and DotComs for the world to see. Nevertheless, I think that the timing is right and that right timing, that I so aptly speak of in this very sentence, is right now.

Sitting on the doorstep to the Real World, with memories of my recent graduation beginning to fleet already, I’ve tried to look within and determine who I am as a person. And is that person that exists at the very core of my being ready for the next step that I decide to take. Never before have I been so indecisive. Never before have I labored so intensely during the decision making process. Even small decisions pose a significant challenge. My inability to select a lunchtime destination is alarming and my inability to select a pair of underwear before showering is disturbing. Because of these struggles I have starved during many lunches and gone commando far more often than I care to admit to.

However, at the end of the day, I think that this blog will serve as one of the keys that turns the ignition and gets me rolling on this road called life. I’ll make some wrong turns. I’ll get some flat tires. Maybe I’ll even run out of gas a few times. But whatever the case may be, I’ll be ready for the journey.

Join me, as I take you all on a journey in my mind.

And just for the record, one should expect much variation in the subject matter covered here. I’m quite certain that I suffer from mild schizophrenia. So I can never be to sure about the part of me that will be writing each entry to this post. But I can promise you one thing, it’ll be a roller coaster ride that you’ll, that I’ll, and that we’ll never forget!
