Uninspired

Blogging is not something that can have a schedule in my opinion. You have to be inspired with a brilliant idea or have a lot of feelings you need to get out. Maybe you just heard something interesting and felt like sharing it with the world, or in my case, the three people that look at my posts. Unfortunately, since this is an assignment, I do have a schedule. Even more unfortunately, I am feeling completely vacant of good or even decent ideas of what to write about. So here I am, rambling on to you about absolutely nothing. I will try my best to end up with something entertaining in the end, but I would not be offended if you decided to simply skip this post, there are much better ones. So here I go…

When I woke up this morning I knew I would have to write a blog entry. Naturally I looked for inspiration in the news and media that morning. After watching a couple lame music videos and an hour of Saved by the Bell, all I was left with was a disappointed feeling that I wasted yet another hour of my life. I went downstairs where my loving father had prepared me breakfast and turned on the news. Like my previous post said there was nothing new to write about. Recession, War, and Clinton were the main stories and took up the fist half-hour which was all I had time for. This should explain why I am so desperate for a blog entry that I am writing about my lack of blog topics.

Maybe I am just not creative enough, or not open enough to share what is really on my mind, but all I can think of is how desperately I strive to entertain in my writing, and how hard that is. It drains a lot of creativity and effort out of me every time I write an entry. It is also difficult because I realize that no matter what I write: a) only a few people will actually see it and b) there is no guarantee that what I write will entertain or even hold the attention of the readers. These facts are a heavy weight on my mind when writing on this blog, yet I have to keep working. Writing does not come easily to me, and sometimes what I say or think only really makes sense to me. But on this blog, I am trying my best to help you understand me and understand what I think about the world.

So even on days like today, when I have lost all hope in finding a suitable subject for the day’s blog and I find myself writing meaningless nonsense. I am trying to take my story or my ideas somewhere. I guess today, it took me to the conclusion that not every blog entry can be meaningful or entertaining, but I will still keep writing, even when I feel like all my originality is gone.
