So many of my blogs are well thought out (too thought out) and are (always!) re-edited until they are a close distance to the perfection I create in my head. It leads to the question - why do I spend so much time tapping away at my keyboard, writing for no real purpose? It's not going to be marked with a way too strict red pen; it won't be valid as an additional GCSE or other qualification. Although, silly it may sound, I think it contributed nicely to extended my writing skills and understanding for English. Are you really saying it counts as revision? Ha, no, unlikely it could be categorised as such an evil act. So why is it that I browse through unknown peoples' blogs and create my own? Oh, right, it hasn't yet failed in relieving my mind of any knot it's tied itself into (with writing releasing the tight bow of the lace - the lace being my thoughts).
I think further I adulate (new word, sorry if it's in the most wrong context there!) searching through websites for pretty pictures to throw together and write a few words about, whether it be analysing them or including them last-minute to a post it has relevance to. Blogging gives me reason to save hundreds (really) of pictures to my computer, hence why I return the favour by posting so many! Although, I say it gives me reason, I think I really mean excuse - because even without blogger (such a horrible and empty world that would be!) I'd spend hours of my day looking through tumblrs and weheartit.com. Blogger just allows me to include them in what I hope to be an intellectual and clever way. Not that I'm going to in this one - no, it's way too deep ;).
