Starting my blog...

I have decided to start my blog for the class. I have been thinking about what I'd like to write this semester and I have a few ideas.

I went on an adventure the past two years of my life. I was actually enrolled in Magazine Writing back in the fall of 2007. I had some personal issues going on in my life and decided to leave college life for a little while. I never finished the class but I am back and will finish this time around. So I moved away right after Christmas of '07 basically. I packed up my little 1991 Chevy Blazer with as much crap as possible, including my 112 pound black lab, and hit the open road. Just me and my dog. I ended up making it all the way to South Carolina. And that is where I stayed for a little over a year. And then once again me and my dog packed up our stuff and moved all the way back home.

I was thinking about incorporating my adventure into one of my stories. For the How To story I could title it: How to travel across the United States by yourself at the age of 22. It is just something I have been thinking about.

For the personality profile I kind of want to interview a homeless person and really get to know that person. Someone that has really been through a lot in their life and has seen a lot of things. It would be interesting, I think, for people to take the time to read and learn something about someone you never thought you'd know. I am sure people in that situation have a lot more interesting stories to tell than you and me.

Well that is all I have to say for now. Thank you for reading!
