there is a reason i started this blog. i was actually planning on having the first entry in march, but i've decided to start now. i think that something like this is necessary in times like these, the ones i'm thoroughly experiencing now. everything from college anticipations to reconciliations between friends, i've had pure madness packed into a mere week. february's almost over, and i'm beginning to be able to see the "end" of the year, so to speak. i suppose it's safe to say that i'm relieved.

so for the sake of my mind and spirit, i'm starting this blog earlier than i thought i would.

one last thing: this blog... take a look at the url. upon visiting this page, you have to remember that none of the words will be "sugar-coated"; it's how it is. and another of my top reasons for the creation of this site is for people to see me. that can mean tons of things. it can relate to actually finding out more about me, through my (attempted) façade. but what i was getting at was more in terms of goodbyes. when you can't see me, when i can't be there for you... there's still a page accessible for all who want to check up on me, and vise versa. so even if i'm not physically there, i'm reachable. communication technology rocks.

i'm hoping you will enjoy this as much as i will.
