The Addiction of Blogging
It’s ironic for me to be writing this right now seeing as it is currently 10:42 PM, 42 minutes past my bedtime, as I merely tap the first keystrokes of this article. But I must simply stop for a moment to think that the sheer thought of blogging is addicting. The blog feels far more personable than the typical sort of well-contented website, and it seems to invite a scope far beyond the technical writing required for the making of a helpsite. It’s a nice break from writing guides and making tutorials to simply relax and let words flow freely as ever.
And I have while thinking of the joys of blogging, chosen to change the name of this place to “Randomness, Rambles, and Reflection,” mostly because I realized the name “Ramble Corner” was bland and a little cliche. It is a small thing however for a still fresh site of any sort to change this name, and this blog is still young. But, aside from that, I have decided that I will plan to create a customized template for this blog to replace the default WordPress theme I use upon reaching a certain number of entries.
Anyways, you may judge from the clumped dates of my recent entries in the blog that I have been going through a blogging phase, and thus, it’s pretty self explanatory what life there is to be explained in this lifepost. In the span of a few days since my last lifepost entry, not much has drastically changed in my life. I still go to school every day, and I could started posting about the background of my life, but it has been 11 minutes past the 42 minutes past my bedtime of this blog post’s beginning typing time, and I do believe the bed and promise of a school bus are calling.

Rambles and More
Okay, so it has been a very very long time since my last entry on this blog before today, although I haven’t been completely barren of inspiration. I do believe, however, that in me old November 2008 article “Urges”, I discussed that inspiration to write never takes form unless the pen (more commonly the typewriter) is readily available. That indeed has been the case with this blog. Freshman year in high school was a stagnant year for me writing wise. Looking back, I’m not sure where all my time had gone through those days, but I suppose I knew where my time was going back then.
But yeah, I have started a little black college ruled notebook with 70 sheets(minus however many I’ve already ripped out) to record my random sudden writing ideas in. So, hopefully, this year the Ramble Corner may actually see more than three new entries, and random people who happen to be interested in reading rambles may have more material with which to entertain themselves. Also, if you may have noticed from the previous post “Inspiration”, a new category has been added to this blog: poetry. I have no clue how frequently I plan on writing in this category as, from experience, I have known myself to generally prefer prose. However, sometimes, poetry forms its simple elegance amongst the confines of the mind, and it thus finds its own form of superiority over prose.
Either way, this blog will continue to be a gutter for the things I write which can truly be grouped together by no means other than that they are of relevance to my life experiences. Thus, I give welcome to this 2009-2010 school year of rambling. Oh, but I am late by 15 days given that the first day of my Sophomore year was actually the 10th of August. Nonetheless, I believe it is time to make no further commentary and, in the tradition of a truly meaningless ramble, adjourn this post.
