Hello ... is this thing on?

This is my blog.
What is going to happen in my blog?
I will at times talk about fun things (Sports, TV, Paris Hilton's latest sob session).
I will at times talk about things that make me wonder about society and where it's going (wars, politics, reality TV).
Sometimes, I will talk about things going on in my little necks of the woods (West Dundee, Ill., during the summer and Charleston, Ill., when school's in session).
Should you care what I think about these things? Absolutely not. But I'm hoping you comment on my blog ... even if it's just to tell me I think way too highly of myself.
A little bit about myself: I'm a 30-year-old college senior studying journalism at Eastern Illinois University. I took several years off after I graduated high school in 1995 to pursue other things ... namely, working at a dead-end job. I went back to school in August of 2003 at a community college and transferred to EIU in August of 2005. I'm active on the school's newspaper, The Daily Eastern News, and will be editor-in-chief in the fall. I am working on my second internship. This one at The Daily Herald, a paper in Chicago and the suburbs.
That's a little bit about myself. I have more, but will save it for another time. I hope at least one person out there reads this. But if not, hey, it's all for me.

I second meinheit's comment.
You self-obsessed journalist.

Every journalist has to start somewhere. Let's see where this journey takes you.

Very interesting....looks like you've come along way from those days of roaming center field in high school. Glad to see you're doing well.
