Hello All,
A wise professor taught me that once a journey has come to an end it is important to look back and reflect on what you have learned throughout the process. With that in mind I wanted to take a moment to reflect on my journey thus far and how it was that I came to be here with you all on Baxter Ave. As I bid farewell to another season of cheesy cards, ugly sweaters, and a ton of empty calories so began my reality. Life as I had known it for the past five years was over. I was no longer a college kid(not that I ever really was) on vacation. My days of writing short stories and poems for grades and gold stars were finished or so I thought. In my quest to find something to do with all of my newly acquired free time I set out to find an outlet for my restless energy. I had done the dishes, mopped the floor, fluffed and re fluffed my tossed pillows, and I had even scoured the bathroom all before lunch. No folks I'm not an over achiever I was just really that bored. I sat on the sofa and pondered what it was I was going to with the remaining hours of my day. With nothing much to hold my interest on the ol' tube I went in search of "busy work" via the inter web. Once I crept all 300 or so of my nearest and dearest "friends" on facebook, I tweeted on twitter, and scouted out Grad schools online. Not as productive as I'd hoped but upon reflection of the past few days I'd say I can at the very least take pride in that I have at created a place where I can write until content only to find I am the only reading it. :)
