It’s the year 2026, why would I start a blog now, out of all times? When was the last time I even used the word ‘blog’? I certainly don’t remember. To be frank, trying to figure out how to use WordPress was quite a frustrating process. It might not even be worth the effort to make a blog that I could abandon after the first post. But, despite the learning curve, I think that it’s good to write about your day every now and then. I imagine it like a time capsule. Ten years from now, I’ll thank myself for starting this journey of documenting my life and maybe even laugh a little at my stories from my late teenage years.
I hope that my journey of this blog may improve my horrendous writing abilities. Writing paragraphs has never been anything I’ve been good at, and I might as well get better at it while also writing about my thoughts. I believe that anyone can get better at something they truly enjoy. Why not have that be writing about my life?
Throughout the years I don’t think I’ve ever had the idea of blogging or creating a journal. I just didn’t feel like something that I would find enjoyable. Only recently have I discovered why people enjoy it doing it in their free time—Documenting your thoughts and how you’re feeling to the world can simply make you feel better and rid your anxiety. It doesn’t truly matter if you’re the only reader of your blog; as long as your thoughts are out there, you might feel a little heard.
And so, this is officially the first post of my blog. My friends also liked the idea of starting a blog, and the title of this post is what one of them responded with when I first introduced the idea. For my future posts, expect to see anything ranging from my high school experience to just random thoughts that I might have.
