Attempt to save my soul

I've finally entered the world of blogging. Two days ago, I was talking to my friend Laura and I told her I felt like my soul was dying because I haven't been writing so here I am, attempt #1 at soul revival. So far, no change but I will keep you posted. I reached a low point yesterday when I visited the newly launched www.queensjournal.com Don't get me wrong, the website is great and I'm happy that everything is back up and running but it just reminded me again that I'm no longer writing, no longer a student and no longer a Journal staff with no journalism related job prospects in sight.

I'm not too sure what this whole blog will be about but at least I'll be writing. I moved to Toronto two months ago, graduated three weeks ago, I'm turning 22 in two weeks and I have no idea where I'll be in two months. This is a "new chapter" in my life (I sound lame) and whether things go great or really really shitty, I'll always have this blog ... provided that I'm not too dejected to type and tell the world what a failure I've become.

I wish I could open this blog with a more cheery and hopeful entry but today is not the best of days. I'm tired, sore and not feeling very good about the jobhunt in general but things will look up. Why? I don't know, it's just something that people say. I'd like to end my first post with an inspirational quote but it's 4 p.m. and it's time to leave work. ALRIIGHT.
