Taking Over the World Tissue by Tissue...


Please, just bear with me for this one post before you deem my blog unworthy.

Hi. You can call me Oscar. (Did you catch on to the cliché reference?) This is my first blog and therefore, post. Ever. Yes, hard to believe, but I have indeed spent my entire existence... blog-less. To the world of bloggers, one might call it "barren."

But now...

I'm ready to conceive...

Thoughts and ideas, of course.



A friend of mine created a blog a few months ago and in all honesty, I was embarrassed for him. The idea of welcoming complete strangers to read and comment on thoughts, ideas, and whatever else I prefer to keep private, seemed ridiculous. As I read his first post, I kept thinking, "You want EVERYONE to be able to see this?? Why would you want EVERYONE to be able to see this?!" I've come to realize, though, that's it's not about that. It's about sharing your ideals and making yourself known as an individual. Taking your natural born right of freedom of speech and using it to the full. Making your mark on the world post by post!

Okay, that's total trash. But you should have known- this is the garbage can, after all.

Seriously, though, I started drawing again and thought it'd be nice to have somewhere to put the pictures. I also enjoy writing and commentary is supported here. It also occurred to me that for the most part, people couldn't care less that you have a blog or about what it says so no one's going to read it anyway. All of that translated to me as: GO FOR IT.

And that brings us here today.

Until a later tomorrow...

Oscar.

  1. Really? I just had a whole paragraph typed out then somehow deleted it. Oh the wonders of technology. Anywho, I'll have to abbreviate what I said before, maybe hat's a blessing in disguise. I think it's awesome you've lost yu're "blogger's virginity" (haha sorry). I find blogs interesting, if not at least something to read in my spare time! I like learning about what my friends do and think about completely random things or events that take placce throughout their day. So, Bravo! Rach! I will follow... :) xo
