The first post of my third attempt at keeping a blog.

I chose a background/template - whatever you'd like to call it - with books for several reasons.
1). Its kind of colorful and therefore attractive to the eye
2). It makes me feel smart in a purely superficial & childish way
3). It reminds me to read the unread books sitting on my bookshelf in my room

Its not that I don't enjoy reading - I do. However, my obsession with finishing at least one fiction book and one non-fiction book per week in elementary school has long since evaporated into my ever-growing schedule. Also, since elementary school, I've never really thought of myself as a well-read person. So in a way, I feel almost guilty about choosing that particular background picture - like I'm lying to the world or something. Which is, of course, incredibly ridiculous and silly of me ... right?

Anyway, theres one example of how I generally think. Like most other people, I think too much about things that probably don't matter to anyone but myself. I'm very aware of this poor habit - and yet here I am, typing about my background picture choice for my third blog. You'd think that after the first two blogs, the picture in the background wouldn't matter so much anymore. Guess not.

Maybe, I'm so picky about the picture in the background because I'm really interested in visual arts. Maybe, I'm just a weeny that should be doing other things - like homework - maybe. Maybe this decision is taking up too much of my time due to both of my previous suggestions. Now I'm rambling and there is probably nothing that anyone would find interesting in this post.

I WAS going to write about something else in addition to the background picture crap - but now I think that I'll just go to sleep so that I can be energized tomorrow and maybe become a little bit fitter, happier, and more productive.
