I need to think of a title for my blog. I am currently writing my first blog entry into a word document because I don’t know what to call my space here on the internet and it feels as though once you choose a title, its rather permanent. I’m actually a bit surprised that I’ve recently felt a strong desire to start this whole blog thing. I have always thought of them as a little narcissistic. But before any of you avid bloggers get offended, let me clarify. I so enjoy reading OTHER people’s words, but could just never picture myself getting on board because who would really want to read MY words? I’ve since reconciled my hesitations by deciding that blogging is something just for me. I’m not going to let it become something that I make myself do out of some imaginary obligation that I’ve created in my mind. It won’t end up being just another thing that I constantly second guess. If I feel like writing, I will write. If I feel like aborting this project before it even actually begins (seeing as I don’t even officially have a blog, yet) and it becomes just another idea that I never followed through with, so be it. I need to start letting things go more easily. Loosen my death grip on what feels like every little aspect of my life.
Today I learned that the reason one of my middle school students was out sick for the past week and a half was because she has/had mono. My brain started making connections between the student, my sore/swollen throat that hasn’t disappeared for two weeks and always feeling like I could use more sleep. I guess only time will tell whether or not those connections are good ones to make. You’ll have to wait in anticipation with me to find out…..
