What's To Come?

Now that I have decided to blog again, I have so many ideas running through my mind. First off, I will try to post at least 1 new blog every week. Second, I will try not to be boring. And finally, I encourage comments because I want to argue... I used to be an aspiring journalist and arguments are my passion so when you see the opportunity, argue!

Something else new I am thinking about doing is posting a weekly series about a non-fictional character. Of course this character will be based off people I know or have encountered. The point of having a weekly series is to help others realize that the same shit they are going through is universal with everybody. Also I want people to understand me a little bit better and I feel like the weekly series will help me accomplish that.

Next week, I start my weekly series and I will post a personal blog!... Besides all of that, keep an eye out for my blog because thing are about to get interesting and fun!

8 Month Absence

The past 8 months have been interesting... I mean so much has changed in my life and I guess I have a few explanation for my absence.

First, I transferred from Winthrop for various reason but the main reason for leaving is because I needed change. I'm not saying I outgrew Winthrop or I despise the great university, but I felt like I belonged somewhere else. And I will admit I miss all my friends, professors, and all those who have become a part of my family. I have mad love for you all and for Winthrop. I will always be an Eagle although I'm a adopted Limestone Saint. I will watch my Eagle every chance I get especially when they are in the NCAA basketball tournaments.

Second, I moved back home after a 3-year hiatus simply for financial reasons. I have always considered myself a mama's boy but I'm not that bad off. I moved back home in order to work, earn my own money so I wouldn't have to be constantly worrying about money. Also helping out my family financially is a plus.

Finally, I been absent for so long because I have not felt comfortable blogging. It sounds crazy but I felt like I let so many of my friends and family down by abruptly leaving Winthrop. But I have grown since then and realize that I am happy and thats all that matters. I am a Limestone Saint physically, but I am an Eagle mentally and spiritually. My heart will always be at Winthrop and that is one reason why I am planning on attending graduate school there.
