Blast for the Future

So, it's been almost a year since I've even been on this, which means I can safely assume that the nine people that follow this blog have either died, or taken up professional spelunking following a terrifying near death experience. All I can say is that I'm not sorry, I don't regret my decision not to blog, and that I'm very interested to find out what kind of wage a professional spelunker earns.

So here's why I'm blogging, Firstly I can do it whenever I want, the most common reason for me not vlogging each week is that my brother is around, whenever I want to, not only would he mock the crap outta me for it, but I just feel awkward making a video when I know other people can hear. Secondly because I'm taking English this year, and I want to write more, I feel like writing a little something everyday can only improve my ability to churn out quality writing (I can do the churning, it's the quality I'm looking for) . So I may spruce this up with some wanky metaphors, a short story or two, we'll see how it goes.

Hopefully I'll try and keep these posts short, so not to subject you to the horrendously dull tedium of my shockingly empty life. In news that excites only me, I am the proud owner of an alluring new macbook, it's shiny, curvaceous and is the sexiest thing since Tim-Tams (original flavour- the rest are just trying to ruin a good thing) it has an alluring four gigs of ram, and a graphics card that's doing its' level best to represent a car number plate. So far I haven't even been able to strain it, it's been as fast as a speeding bullet on everything I've asked it to do.

That's quite enough of that for now I think.
