MY WEBLOGS:
Rantings, musings, feelings, comments
and observations of a stressed-out college student ...
After seemingly everybody else in the world with a computer started composing
their own online journal, I decided last summer that the time was right to
create one for myself. My original effort to begin a weblog began in June
2003, and ended just a few weeks later, after only a handful of entries,
as a result of not having enough time in my schedule. This was around the
time that I was working for Summerbridge
of Greater Philadelphia by day, and KFFL
by night (as well as weekends). When I first created the weblog, my intention was to document my experiences working at Summerbridge, but I was soon overwhelmed with so much work that it was nearly impossible to keep up with an online journal.
I revisited the idea of having a weblog again earlier this year. This time, instead
of writing in my old Pitas journal, I
joined Live Journal, because there
are thousands of different "communities" (message boards) for weblog users
to join who share common interests, ranging from favorite sports teams and
television shows, to people who are applying to graduate school. There are
even groups of Live Journal users from Temple
University and the University of Pennsylvania!
I have since made more than 100 journal entries on my new Live Journal account, and have combined the postings from both weblogs so that they now appear in one place. Feel free to sign up with them, and add me as a friend!
