Introducing: Myself. But not really

I was recently assigned  a little project in my Writers Workshop class. It consists of making a blog, posting updates, and kicking and screaming to find an idea.

So I did.

I was told to mix what I love with what I write; which is easy since writing is my love. But what to write? A blog about myself would just be too bland... At least in my opinion. Why would I write about something I get to observe everyday? Why not try to write about what I have failed to observe?

The product of these thoughts ended with a final epiphany. It's easy to reflect on your own past, but why not try to chart the past you've had with others? It's almost as if you learn from others mistakes - or come to a realization that what you've known about them all along means more than you think.

I hope a little poetry, a few stories and a little commentary will help you dip your feet into the puddles of personality I've come upon throughout the years.

So wish me luck on what I'm about to say; but don't expect to get the real names of my subjects.
