Beginnings

Meandering through the crenellations of his brain, he began to pour ink out upon the page...

So I've gone and created a blog. I've been interested in the power of blogging on politics and information sharing/availability for awhile now, so I might as well try my own hand at this phenomenon. The first entry is rather stymying, with that most difficult of writer's dilemmas--how ever do I begin? I guess like this. Hopefully not too bland, yet not terribly exciting either. I'm beginning this project in the hopes of fine tuning my own perceptions and beliefs on the various elements of life (a bit of politics, culture, movies, and modern collegiate life), as well as having an outlet for which to exercise and maintain my writing talents.

I am beginning in a time of ending. I have one more full day here in Saint Louis before I depart for the summer, bringing to a close quite a momentous year. It's an ending I'm quite ready for after a long, exhausting sophomore year full of many changes to my life. At points, the year came quite close to breaking me--but it appears I survived, if only just so, and I feel more alive than ever. But this is an introduction and there is plenty of room for discussion of the trials and tribulations of college life at another time.

The day is fading into a deep twilight, and I am off to dream the impossible dream.
