So, the big question…what do I write about for my first blog post? Should the fact that it’s my first blog post even be a consideration or should I slot seamlessly into the world of blogging and just muse around a topic such as my new phone, the latest England manager, Christmas shopping, the magazine I have recently subscribed to or the film I have just finished watching?

What do I want out of this blog? I want somewhere I can ramble on effortlessly and share what’s going on in that expansive (?!) mind of mine and for it not to matter what comes of it. Do I expect people to read it? Not necessarily but if I enjoy writing it and making sense of the sense-less then does it matter if anyone else reads it? The Rhetorical question, you will notice, is one of my favourite tools. What’s better than encouraging the readers to reflect on what they think the answer must be?

I generally sit up late, sleep little and overthink everything that can be thought about so it will be nice to have somewhere to pour all the useless waffle that goes through my head.

I have been encouraged by Matt (big shout out), my friend, colleague and peer to get my arse in gear and start this blog up, and for that I thank him as I think it is something I will thoroughly enjoy.

From tomorrow onwards, I will shape, sculpt and mould this page so that it becomes an extension of me and I look forward to seeing what comes of it. Who knows, I might change my mind overnight and this could be my first and last blog post.

And just in case you were wondering, it’s the Sony Ericsson K850i, I think Fabio Capello is an excellent choice for the job, I hate Christmas shopping, the magazine is Wanderlust and I thoroughly enjoyed watching Coach Carter for the ninth time.
