hello world!

this is my first time to blog, so here goes! i wanted a place (other than facebook or twitter) to write down my thoughts and ideas. i've thought of blogging before but never really got a chance to. although i know family and friends are near, it's always good to just write down what you really want to say and not expect a resp.onse. is that weird? oh well...there's just things that i want to say (even though it's going to hurt someone). i think it's more healthy to even just write them down so it's not building up inside of me. and too, this is a good place to start writing the novel i dreamt of finishing someday. well, here's to the start...of something new!
