Change, not greatness

I'm not known for my writing. I'm not known for much, actually. I would never call myself a writer; I'm a reader, a listener, and a talker. My usual subject is myself. It's hard to claim expertise on many other subjects, wouldn't you agree? I don't like saying things unless I'm sure.

So here I'm going to say, I'm not going to produce greatness here. I might not even produce anything interesting. I'm just going to try something different. I'll do some meditations on things outside myself, some poems that I was too scared to share to the world or even my friends, rave about things I'm passionate about, books and music, consider why things are the way they are and tell you things I think you should know.

The difference between this and other journals or writings I've kept is that I aim to make this more formal, if not more serious than other sources. I won't make you listen to stories about my romances or parties or my day to day tedium. I'll try to keep it to genuine attempts at writing and do my best to not throw out every piece of writing in a dissatisfied defeatist rage.

Things to come in the future:
-Storytelling
-Lost pennies
-Love
-Drugs
