why bother?

Okay, I feel like writing write now. So, i decided to start a blog cause I am a victim of mass pressure, and to me it seems like everyone has a blog. And I wanna see if people will bother reading what I write. (i still have slight faith in my writing skills, despite all my english teachers saying otherwise.) and college application essays are coming up, so I do need to practise writing. (cause the teachers couldn't have been all completely wrong, right?)
