The blogging world and other stuff

So I am a huge nerd. Being as I'm all new to the blogging thing, I decided to do a little research and see what kind of things I could find on blogging. Well...people blog about all kinds of crap. You all probably already knew this, but this is new to me. I found a blog where this guy gave advice on how to change yourself and be happier and more content. Well that's cool hey? And it seems that tons of people read it and follow his advice. As far as I can tell he has no real reason for being smarter about life than anyone else, but yet people follow his life suggestions as if it were from their psychologist. Honestly? I think it's kind of cool. Maybe I should start telling people what to do, that'd be fun. I think the real power in telling others what to do is that you learn a lot about how to live and what you should do for yourself.

Anyway, I guess I've decided to have a what's up blog...but for me, what's up in my life is largely related to what I'm thinking about these days.

Well, with a new school year just over a week away I have been thinking a lot about what changes I want to make and what habits I want to start. It's fun having a fresh start each fall. I guess I want to do the obvious things like live healthier, better control my emotions, exercise more regularly, be more organized, enjoy every day to the fullest, and all kinds of other good stuff. So that's really what is going on with me at the moment. I am evaluated where I am at, where I have come from, and exactly where I want to go next. I am going to set specific goals and even post them here...hoping I will stick with them a bit more than usual...
