I am starting a blog.

...which, really goes without saying. But I feel that I must continue with all the "ooooh I"m starting a blog" preliminaries. Feel free to skip this post.

Why am I starting a blog?

Well, several reasons. First and foremost being that I am actually self-involved enough to believe that other people might be interested in what I have to say.

Secondly, I miss writing. And this is sortof writing.

Third(ly?), Harding blocks xanga, my previous blogspot. And my earth-shattering ideas shall not remain blogless for the little-over-a-month I have left until graduation. I've been silent long enough.

And lastly. Concerning the name...
My initials spell "jam", a fact that I have gladly capitalized on since the 6th grade. Nearly anything I have to do involving an internet nickname contains some form of "jam", hearkening back to my old Hotmail email account days at geminijam@hotmail.com. Dorkyjam, toastandjam, greeneggsandjam....actually, I've never used that one. And it's good...is it to late too rename this thing? Anyways. For now, Jamabajess! Like Jamba Juice, but combining my initials and my name...genius, no?

Okay. So not only am I self-involved to think that anyone is actually reading this in the first place...I take it one step further and assume people want to read a novel about how I came up with the blog name.

Clearly, my blogging career is off to a promising start.
