Most of the time my head space is occupied by lyrics to songs that I'm always surprised I remember, or those equally annoying times when I can remember the lines to that annoyingly catchy pop song that won't stop being played on the radio.
If it's not song lyrics, it's story lines. Ever since I was little I wanted to be an author, but I've got this whole thing about grammar and rewrites. That thing being I hate grammar rules, the whole i before e, except after c rule makes my head spin and I'm notorious for using one too many commas. So my apologies now if I commit any grammar crimes -- my AP Style book is being delivered from Amazon and you know how unreliable the U.S. Postal Service is.
And don't get me started on rewrites, this paragraph alone has been rewritten a solid seven times already.
Anyways, back to my point here...Being in my own head.
It's messy and cramped and filled with endless nonsense that usually comes out of my mouth, or via my Twitter page, and sometimes I have a hard time keeping track of it all.
Which is why I originally decided to start this blog. A place to keep all my thoughts.
Enter the problem: My brain goes a lot faster than my hands can keep up with, which can result in a lot of spelling mistakes (another grammar crime I often commit, so thank god for spell check). I've considered doing a podcast, but 1) I'm lazy and have yet to actually follow through with it, and 2) I'm not too keen on hearing my own voice on recording...yet-if I do happen to land my own radio show right after graduation, than I'l get over my own-voice-listening-to-aversion and gladly accept the position.
Recently, I got this idea of how to document my head space clutter sans a computer.
A good old fashion journal. Think of one of those "Wreck this Journal" journals, just minus the prompts and actual destruction.
With 2015 a day away, I feel like this is just what I needed to start the new year, and to finish the final chapter of my collegiate career.
I'm hoping to fill this journal with doodles, song lyrics, as well as quotes and other momentos of 2015.
Now...to find a journal and a New Year's Eve outfit, wish me luck!
xoxo
