I have a blog

So, basically the only reason I started this was to prove to Bek that I could.  And I did it!  I spent more time carefully choosing a template (a very important decision, I assure you) than I will actually writing anything...but appearance is clearly more appreciated than actual substance...I mean, seriously.  :)

Perhaps I will use this like a diary...

...That everyone can see...

Alright, perhaps not an terribly personal or incriminating diary.  That's probably a decision in my best interest.

But I do think that this may be fun.  I could post short stories that I think of...'cause that's how I roll! What?!!

I just opened another gmail account (hence the new blog....).  Upon doing such a radical thing, I realized somethings about The Goog (google) that I didn't completely realize before.  Firstly, The Goog is freaking amazingly AWESOME! 

Also, when you get a gmail account, many super sweet things come with it.  Like a calender that I spent updating with my fall schedule.  Or most of it, as it were.  I didn't feel like looking for all of the syllabi for my classes. (Don't judge!)

Okay, so I may have already known about the calender, however, they've got a program called Documents, which is essentially Microsoft Office (nicely done on getting around copyright infringement, Google boss-people!), not to mention a Books section, which has books that you can read online for FREE!!!!  So, it's like BookBot, but I don't have to remember what the URL is.  (Bonus, let me tell you.)

Then there's the Reader.  You can enter websites into it and it will bring the articles over into the reader where you can look at everything from one site rather than flipping back and forth.  Unbelievably, The Goog has succeeded in making people even more lazy...............aaaand I heartily approve...:D

There's also a website maker, which I want to try, but I can't think of a good website to create. I'm pretty sure the last time I collaborated on a sort-of-legit (not really) website that wasn't for school there were definitely llamas involved.  And llamas are shady.  So before I take on the responsibility of a website, I need something awesome and slightly more legit than llamas.

...Cause they're shady...

Not kidding.

 Basically, The Goog has just made my day.  For reals.

Well, I've got UTA tomorrow, so I be going a'seeeeeep. :) Nighty night!
