I have never really reflected in a document on my computer. I have written in notebooks, not with the laptop or blog, nor with a cohesive idea. I never felt what I had to say would mean much to anyone else; therefore, I never attempted to type the memories out and create a blog. I hope those who read the words I type are sensitive in their responses. I am just hoping that I am doing this right. I have never been one who needed to raise a flag and wave it around for attention. The only thing close would be the radio. Since the creation of social media, yes, I have had a myspace account. I have always said that if folks wanted to know what I thought, they could tune into my radio show. Unfortunately, I am nowhere near garnering the following of others in the industry regionally or nationally. I had a much larger audience when I was on the KATT.
I have always wondered what it would be like to have and maintain a blog. I guess the question for me was always, am I important enough for people to want to know more about me? The intention of my blog has become a place of reflection and display. I want to utilize this blog page to talk about ideas and feelings. Also, to display some of the work I am putting in here at OU. As I expressed in a blog post earlier in the semester, I am proud to be a student here at OU. I laugh at the conversations about students who may not understand the magnitude of their time here at OU.
Some may not have grown up with the inundation as some Oklahomans did. I mean, the first song taught to me by my mother was Boomer Sooner. School pride is sky-high. I am proud of the opportunity to attend the school, and I hope that some of the things I write about in the blog entertain or intrigue me. I hope this blog becomes a place of creative output for my current work and all that follows working through my time at the University of Oklahoma. The theme of the website is me. The challenge I have encountered in writing in the blog is how much I share. I don’t want this place to become a dear diary-type thing. I want to post just different ideas or situations I encountered. Sometimes, I may know the person I am writing about will never read this blog, so that I might go into more detail. I don’t know. Again, I have never had a blog. I probably should have created one years ago, which would have made this process a little more routine.
