There Is A First Time For Everything.....

Well, hello out there.  I have been attempting to blog since Jesus was a baby, as I always say.  I have been journaling for a very long time.  It is something about putting your thoughts into written words that is so therapeutic to me.  Maybe something I write will be of help to someone at a particular moment in their life.  Humor plays a big part in my life and I trying to interject it into my daily life as much as possible.  Everything is not made to be serious 100% of the time, just like it is not 100% humorous.

I decided to write under my alter ego Shanina.  Why you ask?...because it gives me some level of freedom to express things, and talk about issues without feeling I have to justify everything I write.   While my alter ego happens to be in avatar form on the virtual game Second Life, all the words are completely the real me.  I think it is time my voice is heard about some issues.  Who knows, maybe I will finally get up enough confidence to start the book that has been floating in my head for a few years.

I feel like I am interviewing for a job right now.  I am trying to list all the qualification I feel will make ME the person whose blog you tune into on the regular.  I am a serious thinker, and I refuse to believe I am the only one on the planet that even remotely thinks the way that I do.  This particular post is just an introduction to the front door of my mind.  I don’t have any standard format in mind right now; meaning I have no idea what I will talk about from day to day.  I do know I will ATTEMPT to write every day.  Comments are appreciated and welcomed.  If there is a topic you wish me to write about, please let me know.  I will see where this takes me and how long before my ADD kicks in and I get bored with it…J…*chuckles*
