Why blog?

After blogging yesterday and having a chat to Shieuerz about recording our lives in such a way, I've decided to try and blog on consecutive days for what must be the first time in months.

When I started this blog my intention was to just make an account of what had happened on a day-to-day basis, whilst occasionally having a deep thought and getting that down in a more thoughtful blog. When you lack the audience and lack the interesting factor then it's hard. I'm at university and, contrary to popular belief, there is work to do in first year! Factor in everything that I do outside of studying (golf, tennis, football, refereeing) as well as socialising and you have a pretty hectic schedule with little time for a blog.

Blogging/vlogging has become more and more popular recently. Shieuerz and I were discussing why people do blogs/vlogs, especially without a large audience. We concluded that we just do it for ourselves, using it as somewhere to just keep a record of things. If people read it, great, if not, then no worries. I know my life isn't that interesting to many people, which I'm fine with. I like it and that's just about all that matters.

I wish I could blog something interesting every day, but my life is not interesting enough and I just don't have the time! I'll be picking up on this again in the near future.
