Recently, there was something that motivated me start blogging again. After coming to college and encountering numerous articles by different philosophers and sociologists (and of course textbook authors),I realized that there is another hidden aspect of writing, that if you write well, you might as well sound pretty cool and actually seem intelligent. I've never conceived writing in this particular way, but it certainly was one great thing that made these people great and that can serve me for a life time.
So this is why I decided to develop my writing skill. I thought it's a pretty darn good investment with an unimaginable stake. I have many stories to tell, but what use is that without suitable and interesting frames that can vividly represent my feelings? It would be like a foreigner trying to tell how awesome his country is to a person who does not understand his language.
But that can't happen to me. I feel like I have a right to recount my stories to other people after paying more than $23000 a year for my education in America. This huge amount of money shouldn't be wasted at all.
So, I plan to wake up at 6 everyday and spend about an hour working on my writing. I know that this seems pretty impossible. But it's what the author of 'Bird by Bird' recommended; Dedicating some portion of every day practicing writing.
I know for sure that I won't be able to wake up that early in the morning everyday. It just doesn't seem possible since I'm not in military or in a prison but a lively, sometimes lazy college student. But still, I'll try to do my best and trust my will power this time. I hope that some readers (if there is any) can track my progress and hopefully complement about my improvements later in the year. And since I'd never want to hear from readers that reading my posts was a complete waste of time, I will assure you that you will be compensated somehow in the future!
