What do I do with a blog?

So I haven't had any more crazy adventures in a foreign country recently, and I find myself in the unique predicament of having a blog and having no idea what to do with it...yep....still not sure what I am doing here typing this post when my time would be much better spent working on homework. (Dad & Mom, I know you're reading this and I'll get right to it as soon as I finish...promise)

So what in the world am I supposed to do with this avenue of writing and expressing myself that probably no one else will read? Being a very opinionated person, should I pick topics one by one and state my blanket opinion. Should I try and make people ANGRY so I can get more views on my blog? How about being a people PLEASER and simply write all of the things that everyone wants to hear? (HAHAHAHA! If you think that last one is even an option for me you must not know me very well)
Why did I just put this picture of Calvin & Hobbes in this blog? Because Calvin & Hobbes are awesome, and this is my blog so I do what I want! Should I rant and rave about how girls make me so frustrated I want to be the most blunt person in every relationship and conversation to make sure there is NO confusion? Why can't people be straightforward? Why do people ask for your opinion and then get upset for you voicing it? It's an opinion! NOT TRUTH! Or how about making a list of all of the ways I am so happy, yet extremely frustrated at the school I am currently attending? How about writing how I realized that my childhood is all about over and it is indeed time to face the "real world." How about writing how I have the most amazing family ever and there is no way you could ever convince me otherwise? Or should I write about what I would do with $1,000,000,000 (billion dollars) if I have it, and that I probably wouldn't give most of it to charity, that's right, I said it. How about how friends are fake, that I have over 700 friends on Facebook and talk to maybe 100 of them? And that all of social media is one giant popularity contest that I am also guilty of partaking in?
Do I write with fancy ink pens? Nope. Should I? Better question: Shouldn't we all write with fancy ink pens? Yes! Are you tired of reading yet? Am I a stupid, arrogant, prideful college kid who thinks he has a lot of things figured out that all of the adults are too stupid to notice, but I really don't comprehend how young, inexperienced, naive, and out of my depth that I really am...pretty much.  Will I unapologetically state my opinion about things?....you better believe it.  Am I going overboard with all of these colors, underlines, italics, and bolds...hmmm, probably, but once again this is my blog and I do what I want with it!

Of the above topics will I write about all of them? None of them? Who knows, depends on what mood I am in. HAHAHA! I only expect my immediate family will read this, really no expectations for anything grandeur, but at least this will be a good conversation starter around the dinner table and McKeehan's treasure their family dinners! HAHAHA! No one else may laugh but at least I can entertain myself. Well enough is enough, time to get to homework like I promised Dad & Mom.
