"You know Amy, I think blogging is for you"

So I was sitting here at the computer browsing through some blogs and for a while nothing really caught my eye. I was telling myself "ya know Amy, I just don't think blogging is for you" and as if my computer wanted to slap me right in the face, the next blog that popped up kept me staring at the computer screen contently for a good half hour before I had to leave my apartment. Where else can you find information about amoebas practicing agriculture, contagious cancers (yep, new to you right?), and that if you write down all your worries about an exam 10 minutes prior, you'll do better on the exam? This is exactly the random information that I love learning about. I've decided blogs without a specific theme in mind are the best for me, and most likely what my own blogging will be like. Where did I find out this cool information you might ask? Well here it is: Not Exactly Rocket Science. I was completely convinced that I had awesome skills and found the most perfect "THIS IS FOR AMY blog" only to keep reading and find out that they had just received their 4 millionth page view. Apparently this is the "BLOG FOR EVERYONE" and I'm just catching on.

Now that I was getting the hang of it, I kept on browsing and found another blog site. Hmm, I wonder what kind of topics this one had? You guessed it, completely random science topics like how certain bacteria can improve learning, that there's a fish called a blobfish that's nearly extinct (and rather ugly if I do say so myself), and that a study determined that binge drinking can cause fewer stem cells which can cause reduced memory and spatial skills. Sounds weird? Sounds just perfect for the blog Weird Science.

I think blogging is something I can definitely get used to. The writing a blog might be a little tricky for me, but when I find blogs like this, the reading part will be no problem. Stay tuned for the random science that I scrounge up and my attempt at a smooth transition into the blogger world!
