Blogging!

I started blogging nearly 2 years ago as a way for me to get my thoughts out. I was a VERY quiet person (what happened?) and didn't really share thoughts with anybody. Blogging was my way to vent and to answer the simple question "how was your day?" every once in a while.

Now, I am SO glad that I began blogging. It is a way to permanently lock in certain emotions and feelings from times that I don't ever want to forget. For example, I went through and read through some of my blogs from my last week of competitive swimming and remembered the sadness of that chapter being over, and officially called myself crazy for surviving 5:30 AM practices for 3 years. I went through and read my posts from the week before and after my Gramma passed away, and cried. I remembered the emotions that filled that week, and even more memories about the amazing and loving Gramma who is waiting for me in Heaven and always watching me (it RAINED today! Rain always reminds me of my Gramma and makes me laugh and smile). I read posts from this summer at camp, and remembered the sheer joy and love that I have being at Cho-Yeh.

Blogging is a way to permanently document memories, I'm SO glad that I have these memories to look back on over the past 2 years, and look forward to adding many more years to come!!
