A better introduction than hello world.
June 19, 2008
Hello world seems like a clique way to enter into this blog site. It sounds like something you say about a baby, like in those little pamphlets and cards that say it’s a boy on this day with this weight. And the little boy’s picture says Hello World! I wasn’t born today, I was born 16 years ago. I only have 9 days to my 17th birthday, well I guess 8 days and 23 and a half hours, and I wanted to get a new screenname for something. I made a wordpress just about a year ago, and I thought it was fitting that I make a new one to fill my craving for a new name. I guess it makes more sense than getting a 43rd screenname for AIM that won’t be used for more than a month. Aside from the fact that I’m not a newborn, I also think it’s not fitting to say Hello world when the world won’t be reading this. I’ll be lucky if more than a few of my friends read it. And maybe the occassional passerby.
I also have to admit that this isn’t my first wordpress… which I guess I already admitted, but you should at least know why I have picked this new one. On my old one, I decided to give everyone an alias, a discreet name that had a mile of changes so only I could figure out who they were. I figured if I wanted to show one of my friends a part of the blog, I didn’t want them to get offended by what I said about them or someone else. And I could tell someone’s secrets without someone finding them out. It was a good plan.
Until I stopped using my wordpress for a few months. I went back on to see what I had written about, and I was confused by my own code names. I was lucky to figure out one of them, and I only managed to because they were in a group, four or so, and I knew who the other three were. Thank god for that. So I decided I want to write things about anyone, hopefully nothing too bad that I can’t apologize my way out of, and keep their names so I know who I’m talking about.
I couldn’t just start off that way with my old one, it wouldn’t make any sense to me. But this one will be quite similar. Sure it’s a different background and a different nickname, but the idea is the same. I’ll be ranting and raving my mind away, so I can seem a little sane if I ever find a boyfriend.
Since this is a *new* blog, I’m going to have to do a whole page, instead of a little entry, about the name’s origin. Just like last time. Ah, rejoice in the memory.
So keep checking back. I’m going to be glued to my computer this summer and forever more, because I plan on being a smart, unlazy nerd, and I expect to be blogging my stress away.
This is Kassie, signing out, so I can write a page about azurefreckles and hopefully get to sleep before one.
