I originally created this blog to document my experiences at the Eleanor Roosevelt Girls’ Leadership Workshop in 2011 but I realized it would take too long to transcribe my written journal to this site and that some of my experiences/ lessons learned were made to keep close to the vest, rather than be published online.
I decided continue the blog afterwards and now I use it as a place for me to comment on current events, to share my thoughts, to make reviews and to record my own learning experiences.
It blows my mind that everything on the web is basically immortalized forever and has the potential to become weaponized to assault one’s own character ( or writing skills…), but I am willing to take that risk. And it is technically not a risk at all considering I have approximately 0 views on my blog. I don’t need to be so dramatic, but all I am trying to do is express my concerns on the fact that this blog will be infinitely floating around in cyberspace well past my death and that people will judge my writing or my opinions when I am gone.
I guess what my roommate would say is simply YOLO…
