I envy those people who can keep the same diary and write daily for years on end. Instead, I go from journal to journal, moleskine to moleskine, thinking and truly believing that it will be the last one I get. Atleast, until I finished it. The obvious realization that I spend a copious amount of time on my computer compelled me to finally give in and make a blogspot account. Maybe what kept me from doing this for so long was the looks or comments I'd receive from my friends. In all honesty, they will probably never read this. Nobody may ever read this. But I guess that's where the appealing aspect of journal keeping comes in - it's an allocated place where we can write whatever we feel, whenever we feel.

I think now is when I tell you the context of my life. I am a freshman at Boston University in Boston, MA. Born and raised in Southern California, I hate being 3000 miles away from home. As my first year comes to an end, I am looking forward to getting out of this bum of a town and getting back home to my friends and family. I don't know where I'm going to be in 5 years, but the important thing I hope to be is happy. I'm excited for the summer and I'm looking forward to being back to my old self, as corny as that sounds. Whether I end up in Korea for the rest of the year or spend time at home or go on the Nepal/India trip with Amber, I hope I can write and maintain my memories that are soon to come with this blog.

But truthfully, this may just turn out like every other journal I've attempted to keep. I guess only time can tell.
