I have had to write many pages of papers over the last week (and have over 20 more to go). I have noticed that my choppy method of blogging - upchucking my thoughts through some random key punches - degrades my paper writing. I have less patience on these last papers. Maybe it is because of the topic, the daunting task of what lies ahead or plain laziness. Maybe the way I write in my blog conditions me to write my papers the same way. This could drastically effect my writing career in a negative way (as some of you are thinking "he wanted to have a writing career...not the way he writes on these blogs").

The purpose of getting a blog in the first place was to learn to write better. Maybe I have. I have enjoyed fleshing out my thoughts and I enjoy just having the new hobby. I will need to train myself to divorce the method in which I blog and the method in which I pursue writing. I also need to spend more time on my blogs and patiently construct them.

Tonight is not that night however. I have written a ton of pages, had a lot of fun over the weekend and woke up early for pretty much the last 2 weeks in a row. I'm tired, I can sleep in tomorrow (to 7:00 am) so I'm going to upchuck this time and hopefully begin a better blogging habit in the morning.
