The Dog Days are Over

I'm not good at this. That's what I tell myself. So since I hate to be wrong, I go out and prove it. I mean if I am the one that decides whether I'm right or wrong, then I will do my best to make myself look good. Even if that means me looking like an imbecile. Its a vicious cycle that I have going on up top. I honestly think I'm terrible at this blogging business. I'm almost certain that my blogs have shown just that too. But I have no one to blame but myself. Yes, it's nobody's fault but mine. I'm a poor writer due to sheer laziness. At least that's what I tell myself. If I'm bad due to laziness then I guess I can control that by actually working at it. So since this is a free sight then maybe I will. I have at least a consistent audience (granted anyone reads this) and I already have it as a partial assignment. And I believe that doing this could pay sweeping dividends. At least two that I'm almost certain of.

One simple reason is that I'm going to be a teacher of English. It would be humiliating, detrimental, unexplainable, if my students were better writers than me. How am I going to explain that to parents?  After all, I paid people to teach me how to write. I paid people to teach me so I could teach others. However, the educator can only do so much. If my professor gives me a portal to become a better writer and I steer clear of it, then there is no logical explanation. So I will take this opportunity to become more comfortable with the written word. I do believe that it is an art form and I've seemed to be a consistent minimalist when it comes to things art. I've got no real natural talent for any kind but I am quite fascinated with a majority of all art forms. Music, literature, paintings, you get it. So I now take it on myself to at least exert myself and see what I have to offer in this form we call blogging.

Another reason I am to blog is because, although I think that its ridiculous that our world and mainly my generation feels the need to document our every single thought, I do like to do it myself. I am a bit of an oxymoron. I despise all technology but I still try to figure it out. I hate Facebook and other social networking sites but I still have one. This blog is a form of those and although I do not care for the blog itself, it does come in handy for me getting my thoughts out there and for the improvement of my writing. I'm really terrible at endings.
