The Preface

For whoever's reading this, I suppose I ought to explain why I made this blog. I might say it's because I've often had the thought of starting a blog and finally decided to "just do it" (thanks to Nike for popularizing that phrase). I might say it's because a few of my friends started blogs in the past year, and reading their posts inspired me to create a blog of my very own. I might say it's because I've been aching for a creative outlet or that, since going off to college, I've wanted to find a better way to communicate my many experiences with family and friends. Whatever the reason, here I am writing my first post.

I hope to share of my travels in the lovely states of Florida (home) and Pennsylvania (school), of road trips to yet-to-be-determined locations elsewhere in the USA, and even to other countries when I study abroad in the spring. I also hope to share trinkets of joy and maybe even wisdom as I find them along the way. Who knows what places I'll end up and what things I'll learn. But here's to the journey - wherever it takes me.
