Round Two

In my efforts to follow the wisdom of every communications professor I've ever had at BU, I'm starting this up again. They tell us to stay connected. LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, a blog. I kept up with it fairly well while I was in Australia, but mostly because there was a lot to write about. Stories are just easier to make blog-worthy when they take place in a world that is foreign to your readers.

So now I'm going at this round two, this time taking place in Boston. It'll be more of a challenge, to make interesting; I can't just spit out every place I visited and every humorous Aussie dialogue I exchanged. It'll be more of a challenge, but I'm up for it.

That's my first reason to keep this blog going. I also realized that writing is a passion of mine, and like many passions, it only gets better with practice. If I don't keep at it on my own time it might fade away and my emails might start lookin lyke dis. Just kidding, that won't happen. But my focus in Advertising isn't on Copywriting, so I need to find some other way to keep the writing up. Blog it is.

My updates won't be as frequent (if you could call my posts from Australia frequent); its pace will rely more on how often I find something blog-worthy than keeping weekly tabs on my life. I'll just work a little harder at finding blog-worthy observations, stories, etc; who knows, it might make me work a little harder at making my life blog-worthy.

I don't know how exactly it'll go, but I can promise I won't write about how much homework I have to do, or what time I ate lunch or anything like that.

To be continued!
