No one has paid attention to me for 7 hours... So I'll start a blog

I often make fun of people who share too much online. Why does person x need to provide Facebook status updates on an hourly basis. Does person z really think twitter is the best medium to find out about visa requirements for southeast Asia or do they just want everyone to know that they are traveling g to se Asia and you aren't.

So why start a blog?To be honest some of it is narcisstic. I'm about to embark on a 3 month trip and felt it would be an easy way to share updates with the all of the people I assume actually careabout where I go and what I see. Does anyone care outside of my parents?i don't know. And if this blog solely serves as a gurnal for me to mark and remember the first considerable time off from work I've had for the past 6 years or for the next 20 so be it.

Also, as Veronica corningstone said, when in Rome. I'm going to be going back to business school in the fall and if everyone there is an over sharer I may as well see what it's like before I get oncampus.
