And so I blog again

I like blogs.
I've always liked blogs.
I've had so many variations of a blog that it's frightening.
I've stayed away from traditional blogging (can blogging ever be considered 'traditional'?) for a long time. The strike is over! Be prepared to be bored with the series of events that make up my life. I just completed my degree in graphic design from OCAD so I figured it was the perfect time to start a new blog. Partially because it'll mark a fresh start; the beginning of a new life (predictable reason, I know) and partially because I'm trying to anchor myself in some way. It's a weird feeling not having school to weigh down your September. It feels like floating and I have yet to acclimatize.

I've always found it much easier to organize my thoughts and understand my mind through writing and sure, I could do this in a private diary (I have two main ones; one for business/work related topics and one for my private melodramatic angst where I'm allowed to be as irrational and self-deprecating as I like) but there is a certain narcissistic allure to blogs, pretending like my opinions and thoughts are interesting to other people. But, hey! If you're reading this, then I have succeeded in being at least slightly entertaining or assisting in one's procrastination. Glad to be of some help.

What will you find in here?
If a hobo exposes himself to me in the subway (again) then you will read about it here.
When I find something inspiring whether it be a book, art, design, etc...I'll post about it here.
If I just feel like ranting because it seems like the right thing to do, it'll also be here.

So, stay tuned.
Let's see how long I stick with this blog.
