Let The Bloging Begin!

So this is a blog, huh? This isn't so bad...

    I say that because I was a little hesitant to start one myself, for a few reasons. One of them being the pressure of building and maintaining a good blog. I mean, how would I know which color combination would look best with my semi-customized "dynamic views" template? Would I be able to upload sarcastic memes to my sarcastic reviews of the TV shows I sarcastically enjoy? But most importantly, would anybody actually read this stuff? See, I was under the impression that blogs were a place for specific and often times strange things. Things that I didn't know that much about. At least that's what I thought after numerous, and very odd urges I had to lurk certain ones at 3 in the morning. Maybe you'll empathize with my worries if I better explain my previous understanding of what a blog was...

        1. A place where fangirls geek out about Harry Potter, Sherlock, and other British things.
    
    (And by 'things' I mean men)
    2. A place for the most gorgeous and effortlessly photogenic hipsters in the world. 





Not only will their child be the most beautiful being on Earth, but it will also be ironically stylish and always ready for a surprise photo. 



         3. A place for PUPPIES!!!

Which I have no complaints about.
Isn't dat right wittle guy! Yes it is!!!


      4. A place where you can find porn that isn't Bangbros or Pornhub.
C'mon guys! Put it back in your pants!
 


      5. A place for pictures of awesome houses that can't really exist.


Like the tree house you had as a kid, only with a mortgage







   










       6. A place to apologize for not writing enough.
I forgive you. But not for unofficially dedicating your life to a "River Monsters" blog...
        7. A place where the food looks better than the people.



Now give me some more attitude... You're gorgeous waffles! You're gunna be a star!
         8.  A place where we can all be happy that Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone are together.

OMG! They're like adorbs!!!





       9. A place for GIFs of your favorite scenes from your favorite rom-coms.

To be fair, I think we all fell a little bit in love with these two after this.
...Don't judge me bro...







     10. And of course, a place for Fangirls. Lots and lots of Fangirls.
And fanguys






 
    Now I hope you see why I waited so long to start one of these things. I mean my own sister is the definition of a Fangirl and I've had to sit through more than a few lectures on why Benedict Cumberblahtch is the best Sherlock ever. I live in Los Angeles so I get to see plenty of hipsters, puppies, and people who complain about not writing enough. And as for the porn well, without sounding too pervy lets just say I've had to clear my Ipad history a few times... But my point is I get plenty of what blogs offer in my everyday life. So why in the world would I want to enter a world where all of those things are magnified by about a million and than shoved down my throat (although I wouldn't mind that being the case with the waffles). That of course is what I thought before I came across a few blogs in particular that proved me wrong. These blogs showed me that the focus doesn't always have to be on a picture of the worlds most perfect mountain side home but that it can be about the writing. That it can be a place where you have something good to say. A place where you can express your funny, sad, and/or insightful, thoughts in hopes of getting a response from some like minded individuals. So I find myself sitting here, in front of my computer, desperately trying to figure out if the Times New Roman font looks better with "simple" layout or "watermark." But not for long of course, as I have better things to type and my hope is that you'll take just a few minutes from posting pictures of super cute celebrity power couples to read my words.

Which brings me to my first major topic of discussion... 
Garfield and Stone: Overrated Or, Like, Way Too Adorbs.
