Well, while I originally started this journal (writing in it, anyway) as a way to discuss my application to medical school, I have made the decision to broaden it a little more. Especially considering I won't be going to medical school this next year, and won't be applying for another year. That'd be a very dead year if I just wrote about pre-med experiences.

So, while I probably won't use this for really intimate thoughts, I figure it might be a good place for me to just journal. Maybe better my writing style, or vent when it's not appropriate to blog on ProgressiveU.

Does that mean I'll update with more regularity? Probably not. But I'll certainly use it through the month of July as we approach my first attempt at JulNoWriMo. 50,000 words in 31 days. Can I do it? Probably not, but it won't be without trying.

I'm going to be writing a memoir; everything I can remember up until now will be written down. I'll probably focus on emotions more than actually events, since this is a memoir and not an autobiography. I probably won't attempt to publish it either. Maybe I'll get a bound copy made many years from now when I want to pass it on to someone, but now is not that time. For now, I just want to write it all down.

I still have about 15 minutes before I'm officially allowed to start, so this entry is mainly just a way to distract me until I can write it all out. Feel free to comment if you wish.
