Random Thoughts, Retrospections, and...Muscular Armpits?

Ahh, I now have a blog.

Well, to be technical about it, I've always had a blog. (Apparently.)

As I was attempting to fill a form to create this, I was taken to a page that said that my account already existed and I needed to reset the password. Surprised, I thought hard and vague memories of going to this website in my early teen years and filling out a similar form came to mind (of course, filling out random forms, taking surveys, and blogging were my only priorities back then, it seems).

To be completely honest, as of 12:07AM this (now) Saturday morning, I am not sure how I feel about having a blog or putting my thoughts onto cyberspace again to be exposed to the public. I once did this on a daily basis; I have many fond recollections of my early Xanga days, which I started in 8th grade and it was a good medium in which to express my thoughts, practice writing well, and correspond to friends in my immediate community and abroad.

Since then, lack of time and energy and will have hindered me from doing so. My beloved Xanga homepage is still there and the seventeen-year-old Syeldy is still preserved in those temporary cyber pages; the experiences, pictures, and growth from the time she was thirteen to seventeen is still there and I feel a mixed-up emotion within me whenever I browse through my thoughts once in awhile.

This is all to say that I do not quite know whether I should be doing this again; all I know is that there is a small desire within me to type out my thoughts as I used to and become vulnerable to the world once again. Maybe this will last, maybe not. All I know is that I am going to finish one blog tonight and post it.

One highlight of many highlights this past week has been this: I sprained my foot! I do not intend to sound as if I am seeking pity nor am I boasting about it: I am simply stating a new occurrence in my life that is somewhat exciting, I have to say. I have never broken a bone or badly sprained a body part in my life and since now I have, it is a new experience to learn from. I had always wondered and strongly desired to use crutches and the Lord has graciously given the desire of my heart. Hurray for developing muscular armpits!
