Why I BlogApril 26I have no idea why I blog.In the beginning I was a blog lurker. For years I just read.Didn’t leave a single comment. Then I was like, if they can do it, I can do it.So I started a blog. And for a long time, my Mom was my only reader.Because that ish was boooo-ring. Don’t look at my archives. Just don’t.At first I wanted to blog about how I was trying to save money and be a real grown up.That was my first mistake.Why? Because I’m not that great at saving money. I’m not a grown up.And it basically left me with zero interesting subject matter. I have no idea why anyone started reading my blog.Somehow, 100 people found me and I was like, how? Overtime, it evolved into something else.I changed my blog name. Kept writing.And somewhere along the way, I found my voice. After living on the east coast for a year, I still had very few real life friends.Blogging gave me a community that I craved.It gave me something to do besides set a world record for the number of consecutive hours of Netflix watched.Oh and it also made my days in my cubicle a lot less dull. These days, I try to write articles mixed in with personal stuff.I don’t want my blog to just be me me me.I wanted to entertain.I just like the challenge of it all.Basically I pretend like I’m a future Buzzfeed writer. I think I really like the cause and effect of blogging.When I write a crap post, there are less comments.When I write a post that’s really great, people respond. It encourages me to become a better writer.And hell, I didn’t even know I wanted to be a writer.But I guess I do.
