Blogs, when used for documenting one's personal life, rather than trying to broadcast to an audience in a certain niche, is a weird little thing. How many people kept a diary or journal during their teenage years? And then, how many of those hid it away where they thought no one would look, throwing a fit when it was discovered under their mattress by a parent or sibling?
It's their private thoughts and having another read them is an invasion. Yet.. most personal blogs have within them the very same entries I would expect one to keep in an offline journal, should one be used instead. I suppose it's the anonymity - that always seems to bring out strange things in people.
In any case, despite having multitudes of other online & off options, I'm trying again to blog about... nothing - in the Seinfeld meaning, of course. In the grand scheme of things, it really is nothing, but for now, for the occasional posts, it's something.

About Me
- Kayla
- I am: a 20 year old college student, aspiring screenwriter, future wife of a gunsmith, wanna-be graphics and web designer, a gamer, an avid reader, someone with too much time on her hands, and most of all, just a girl that enjoys life. I'm not very good at this whole blogging thing (or rather, sticking too it) so we'll see how it goes. :)
