Welcome to the Internet

After much creative contemplation I have decided to spill out my already overflowing brain thoughts into your eyes as you browse. If you're someone I know - hello to you. If you are a stranger that's simply another slave to internet procrastination - hello to you also. I hope you enjoy the posts to come that will explore my thoughts on life, the universe and everything.

What originally got me interested in the bloggosphere (is that a word?) is youtube. Although the most part of us (including myself) use it to watch funny cats and old ladies falling off swingseats, there is an enormous host more on there. A few years ago I started to watch 'charlieissocoollike', who is an "English twenty something". He regularly makes videos about his life and things he finds funny. It was only as he occasionally included his friends in his videos that I realised that they were all youtubers too, and all published their thoughts, humour and musical talents as videos. Each one is unique in their style and individual talent. 'Tomska' makes comedy using guns and special effects, whilst 'Kingsley' entertains people with his sassy b**chiness.

Through my computer screen I could suddenly see a whole other world- and I felt like I was a part of it. It seemed amazing to see that just by talking you could create huge connections that brought people together like a community. But then I realised that was called making friends. Although all of these people seemed fearless and extrovert, the form of producing their ideas is far less social than it seems. I think that it's alright to do that. If you have a completely outgoing nature, but are shy around people then the internet is a blessing. However, I don't have a video camera so I thought that blogging would be the ideal way to share a bit of myself with the world.

And so here I am, firing my eccentric brainwaves at your face, without actually having to get out of my chair. I've got a hot chocolate on my right and a pile of chupachups on my left (I'll admit that the taste combination is a bit strange) and I'm sure that you're perfectly comfortable as well. If you're not then go and get a nice cushion and a hot beverage. By the time you return I should have offloaded some more thoughts onto the internet to make sure you stay entertained.

 Lots of love, stay freaky! xx
