The SCAD Writing Student

I attended a panel about blogging last quarter, and at the end of it, my professor asked me, "Do you have a blog?" I thought to myself, "Why yes. When I was thirteen, I started a Xanga and filled it with my very important thoughts. 'Cause, you know, most prepubescent teenagers have really sharp minds."

I told her, "No, I don't."
"Well, you should start one," she replied.

One of the participants of the panel said, "Blogging can't be your only thing. You actually have to be doing something to have something to blog about."

So here I am. Blogging. And what am I doing? Good question.

I present to you the things that I love. And hopefully you will find somewhat interesting:

• Fashion blogs. I love them. I don't get them. Tall, skinny girls wearing designer clothing that I can't afford. Let's reinvent it here, people.
• Pop culture. I would love to write for Entertainment Weekly someday...
• Writing. I am. In fact. A writing student. Some small blurbs here and there. I'm not one for tomes. Not that anyone reading blogs are here to read novels. Let's be serious. When I go to blogs, I turn into a five-year-old. I'm looking at pictures.
• Online shopping. It's a really ditzy thing to be into, I get it. But I love finding things online that I'll probably never buy, because I'm a poor college student who goes to a private art school...

I'm sure other things will come along the way. But for now, that's me.

My insecurity about starting a blog is that my thoughts are sort of silly. And there are already so many blogs out there. So what makes one special from the rest?
