Electric Pink Flamingos and Calico Bears

Let me start off with who I am. I am Griffin DeCarlo Hamell. I am a college student at a college called Le Moyne in Syracuse, NY. It’s a private jesuit college… it’s ok. If I had a choice in the matter I would have gone to UCLA Berkley or NYU. That didn’t really come to my mind til I changed my major from History to English with a concentration in creative writing. Really, I don’t know what the hell I want to do with my life and that is ok. Who does really? So I will blog my life, my poems, short stories, web related stuff, music, movies, and more. Hope you enjoy.

Well I just recently got this wordpress thing and I am still trying to figure out how it works. I know what a blog is first off. Just not sure how this WordPress thing works. I am sure there are docs somewhere but I am too lazy to read them and I am sure I will figure it out on my own.

The first blog I ever owned was on on livejournal and I am sure everyone knows that the place. It’s like the blog version of myspace. It’s the emo blog version of the emo myspace. Yeah, I am not sure if you know that. I hate myspace it’s the immature version of something like I am not sure off the top of my head, I am a member of a few. One is for the young businessman, the young cultured college studen and so on. That’s the kind of site I wanna be on not some site where there are like 15 year olds bombarding you with friend requests trying to get some from you since you are older. I am 20 for GOD SAKES! Leave me alone and go back to taking your high angled pictures. Hey I have nothing against the girls who don’t harass me with friends requests who take high angled shots.

What I like about WordPress is that it is cultured and mature. I know I could have installed it on my server and I have done that before but I do not feel like doing that. I am ok with it on here but what I am happy about is being on the same site with my favorite blog, Motho ke motho ka botho. Atleast one of my favorite blogs besides, Lifehacker and Digg although that isn’t even really a blog persay… but it is sorta like one. Well it’s among the blogs I open every morning from my “blogs” folder quite easy in Opera, which is what I use right now, as well as Firefox, which I don’t use anymore.

Like I was saying hopefully I get this website off the grown and I get some readers. I rant alot sorry.

P.S.: Ubuntu all the way!!
