Blogging.

I've been lurking around the blogosphere and have found many intriguing blogs.  I can't help but notice that my writing style is very dry, stale and impersonable.  I feel like my undergraduate studies have drained the life and soul from my written expression.  "Clear and concise," is what they ingrained into us all those years, essay after essay, reading after reading.  Well it seems to have fucked many of us over, what is academic writing good for anyways?  Perhaps, perpetual intellectual masturbation of one another, justifying their choices to pursue academia rather than engaging life in the real world.  Whatever, maybe I'm just reading too many 'hipster' blogs.
