Breaking News: Some Bullshit Happening Somewhere
I received this by email a couple weeks ago. I just remembered it when I sent the link to my blog to a few friends and explained that it is mainly just filled with my "same old bullshit".
I'm a 27-year-old law student at Boston University. I am originally from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and went to undergrad at the University of Mississippi - Ole Miss. I've also spent a fair amount of time living in Latin America, and I spent 2 years working for a real estate developer in the Republic of Panama. Last year I spent about 6 months as an exchange student at the national University's law school in BsAs, Argentina.
As a kid, I told my mom I wanted to have plenty of good stories to tell my grandchildren one day. A lot of Americans in my generation like to have good stories... we collect them and file them away in Facebook photo albums called "Backpacking through Europe - 2002" or "Vegas Round 2 and Other Adventures".
I’ve accumulated a number of stories, so I’ve decided to start writing a blog. I'll write about new adventures and occasionally recollect older adventures when they seem relevant.
An ex-girlfriend once told me in a moment of anger that if I took a good look at my life, I’d see that it isn’t as miraculous as I think it is. Not a very nice thing to say, but it is true that we gringos are generally not as original as we would like to believe... Of course a blog isn't really a novel idea or anything, but my future grandchildren and I like it anyway.
