As many of you (seven to be more precise), know I used to blog about film of late. That was all good, and I plan on getting back on the ball with that and writing some more reviews for my dedicated fans, but i decided to start this, my second blog, so that I can write about things that I run into every day that i find interesting, ridiculous, or intriguing, but that have nothing to do with showbizzz!
As I finish my first year in college, I am faced with a major decision (no pun intended). For those of you who are savvy enough understand what I'm talking about, I applaud you. For everyone else, the problem I face is the life altering decision of choosing a major, (because once you choose, THERE'S NO GOING BACK!). Anyways, before I loose all of your attention, and therefore any chance at a fan-base, I will "cut to the chase."
I am really leaning towards a major in English now, as opposed to one in film. I believe a degree in English opens a variety of doors, whereas film leads down one narrow road that is filled with tigers. Not to say that my dreams of making movies are canned. As of now, the best case scenario is that I major in English, hone my writing skills, become a professor at a prestigious university, and write my fair share of novels and screenplays.
Let's face it though, life is filled with curve balls. You never know what God has planned for you, (overkill statement, but true). I just pray that whatever I end up majoring in and building a career in, I can do it for his glory, and I believe that God can do great things through me with an English degree.
So, why is this all relevant to me starting a new blog? Well, the way I see it, the more I write, the better I will get. So this blog is here for me to throw up anything from social commentary's, intriguing psychological discoveries, short stories, day to day anecdotes, or just to share what God has been revealing to me lately.
It may suck, or it may change the course of your life forever, either way, I'm here. So, I hereby order you to follow me, and my strings of informal ramblings, and well constructed essays...this post being the former.
peace, Austin.
I will follow and I will invariably comment. It's what makes me "the Mom". I love you and love hearing your voice. I am interested to see it grow.
