Contemplation

In returning to my blog from my pre-college years today, I'm trying to decide whether it is worth it to keep the existing posts and add on starting around now to capture important thoughts and moments of my final semester of college, or if I should simply delete older posts and start a brand-new blog.  As of now, I'll probably leave past posts alone; they are intriguing to go back and consider where I was at the time.  However, in the new series of posts, the focus will be very different in that I will address topics that are on my mind instead of merely recounting daily activities.  I'll probably try not to sugar-coat things as much as I did, since in looking back, I see a few hints of hating high school, but not nearly the amount that I actually did.  Over the past 3.5 years, I've definitely grown a lot and went through the transition to a college student.  However, the next 6 months to a year will be the greatest transition that I will face in moving on and finding a career and comfortable life.  For the first time, I won't be in a purely educational setting and will have to adjust to many changes, which frankly terrify me now as I think of them.

I hope in following posts that I can capture my journey through this transition and avoid to some extent simply rambling on about my daily activities.  I will definitely still ramble though, as I find that my writing style leans toward random when applied to unstructured pieces.  I'll also be writing mostly as a reflection for myself, but will welcome any insight that other readers may want to give, whether in feedback, comments, or questions.

Note: The posts following this are from high school and reflect mostly on daily activities.  Proceed at your own risk.
