Yet another semester, and here I am sitting in front of you, Blog, expected to have an opinion on something, while really... I would rather not. I love observing the world, and true, I have an opinion on many things. But I do not care to impose them upon any one or anything, while it is impossible in the time I may have to take to write a blog to be in all fairness, fully informed on the subject upon which I wish to ponder. Anyways. I want to write a blog. I want to be the person who has something to say about something every day. OMG! What has Britney done, or OMG that Obama, he's such a push over.
To me, Politics, the truth is all hidden. So if the truth is hidden, how can you feel as though your forming a pure opinion. And on top of that, how, HOW can you impose that opinion or share it as though it was well informed. Understanding politics can be equated to mastering a musical instrument, or to form a comparison which is based upon innate ability to understand something, being fully fluent in another language. You have to follow it as soon as you learn how to read. Otherwise, you are like me... or like any one else for that matter. A drone, reading half witted information every day to form an even more halfwitted opinion.
Anyways. This is not why I don't write a blog, or filter through the hundreds of thousands or even millions of blogs which exist simply to vomit the opinions of the nameless learners and livers such as myself. But simply because I avoid creating an opinion.
I admit, I do watch Jersey shore sometimes, and I could include a blog here where I tell every one exactly how I feel about binge drinking and skin cancer.
But I wont.
I will complete the blogs as perscribed, and until I feel so inspired by something to share it with my computer screen, until then I will simply sit back and remain jealous of all of the people who already are.

Anyways.
Hello Professor Roth! Hope you had a wonderful break and holiday. I hope to learn a lot this semester and do a lot of writing and hopefully get drawn from the cynical mood I have been in lately. I have been doing a lot of creative things which I love and are only slightly good at which have nothing to do with writing or a career so naturally I have been very confused lately about what my inspiration is and what I want to do. But hopefully I will be able to combine the two and start to feel a little more balanced and directed. Looking forward to taking this class!
Thanks,
Brittany
ps- I was only late today because I didn't know about the room change and went to WA and did not find out about the new room until I was able to check my e-mail!
