Ahem. I hereby publicly and resolutely resolve to blog not once but THREE times a week until school starts, at which point I hope the habit will be firmly established and readily continued. It's not lack of ideas, really, or lack of cute, innocent stories from camp, but rather a lack of dedication and the occasional struggle to find the right voice for a blog. There's also the issue of filtering - what exactly should be public? Should I share the deeper musings and hope that people stay interested, or should I stick to less profound and more to the amusing?
Writing is such an interesting thing. I still love it immensely, but blogging is a different area, and I'm still understanding how to make it work for me. What are my goals for blogging? Partially it serves to keep people - such as grandparents and friends from Oregon and Denison - updated on my new and exciting life at Grinnell, but I also want to share a little more, to give myself a voice, however small and sarcastic, in the big bad world of the internet.
So while I muse on what next to post, take a look at my post from Urban Connection. I can't believe five weeks have flown by already - only three more with the kids who have brought so much joy into my life. <3
