little things: a blog is (re)born

My first post has been an embarrassment of rambles since I clicked “Publish.” I had no concrete idea of my blog’s focus or direction. Where did I want this thing to go? I find that it has changed with each post, although few. Talking about fashion was the game at first, but I found little momentum from myself, a college senior in her last semester, who can barely make it out of the house in anything but cropped yoga pants. I’m quite guilty of cropped yoga pants.

My first post was a pool of digressions, things that zip through my mind as I type. I thought that since this was my blog, why not just write and post them as they come? (Cue the next few posts.) Now is the time, as a graduating college student and as a girl with a blog, that I need to figure out my direction. Where should I go? For the the sake of my personal writing, where should my blog go? I need a purpose.


Away with longer pieces, here to stay are short “little things.” I’m finding it impossible to write anything but randomness. My days move too fast so I can’t catch enough of these little things to examine them. Alas, the varying subject matter remains.
 
Writing the posts previous to this one allowed me to learn things about topics and subjects that I was curious about, but never curious enough to do something about. This blog will be a compilation of “little things” that I want to know more about. It’ll be a daily (weekly, for now) destination for a little piece of something. Not the whole cake, but just a bite. Maybe I should practice this in my physical consumption of cake, too. Both I will work on.
