First Timer

I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while now and practicing on MySpace, and I believe I'm finally ready to play with the big dogs. Besides, I think my high school friends are getting tired of reading about my academic and poetic woes, so I've decided to reach out to a wider audience--and hopefully an audience that will appreciate my ramblings.

I'm getting close to thesis-writing time and frantically trying to get some publications under my belt, so I imagine most of my posts will be related, although I can't deny that once in a while I'm likely to complain about grading papers or a failed sentence structure exercise in my freshman composition class. Either way, welcome to my brain.
