(Note: The reason for the reappearance of posts on this blog is not completely clear as of yet. But it is PrisonerofHope that is mostly to blame... For more information, read the comments on the post before this. Enjoy ;)

If the title wasn't obvious enough, this is the first post of this blog. The category on all blogs from this point will always be Travel, and there is a good reason for that. I suppose we'll start at the beginning. First: I am not into politics, nor world events, and you'll see very little (if any at all) reference or mention of things going on outside my little world. Two: To balance everything out and still make it interesting, I write. I have been writing since I discovered that there was such a thing as language, in fact I wrote my first story before I really at all knew how to read. I've been at it ever since and have been doing my best to improve as I go along. You may see some of my material here. Perhaps not on the blog, but publicly posted or linked. Third: I am going to Australia. That is not a hope, dream, wish, or objective. That is a fact. And I will not stand for it to be reduced to any of those other things. I've been stuck in Missouri for the majority of my life and that will change. To accomplish this, I have generated what I have come to dub "The Evil Four Year Plan" which is working out quite well I must say. Everything I do from this moment till the moment that plane hits the ground in Melbourne, is all about getting there. Its the decided direction of my life, and god save you if you get in my way. Fourth: And I should probably mention this- Concerning religion. You will not see a great deal of that on this blog or site either. Though if you are intrepid enough to contact me personally or ask, I'll be more than happy to discuss it with you. Though I won't argue with you about it... It is kind of complicated. For a basic rundown, so that no one is confused I'll go ahead and provide a link to the oratory that I wrote about a year ago and ended up defining the idea of religion and faith for me. I'm still a bit new to this so I'm not entirely certain what the link will look like, if you're not sure either, just click the word "oratory" in the preceeding sentence and you that should work out alright. What I am sure of is that I have to be on the clock at Best Buy in ten minutes so I'm going to wrap this up and say goodbye.
