First Post Ever

This is how desperate I am at finding something new to do. Start a blog. I'll probably get 1 reader which is (pathetically) me. So this is my new hobby! That is if I even commit myself to blogging.

It might look plain now, I don't really know how to customize, design and things like that (actually that was why I gave up blogging years ago) YET, but I hope I'll get the hang of it sooner or later. I actually searched 'How to Start a Blog' on wikiHow.

Talking to myself is actually quite amusing.

Now, you (an imaginary person) might be wondering why I chose Papillon as my blog title. I'm gonna explain it anyway, to remind myself why as well. It was named years ago when I opened this blog but never actually got to posting something. Papillon is 'butterfly' in French. Why butterfly? Now this is a bit narcissistic, but my name (Vanessa) means butterfly, and I liked how butterfly sounds in French. Papillon. Further researching led me to discovering Papillon also means 'someone brilliant, versatile and inconstant'. I was very shocked how beyond narcissistic this actually was. I wanted to change it but I've got no other brilliant ideas so in the meantime I'll just bear with it until I find some other titles.

Besides just filling up my time, I figured blogging would be a great way to:
.:Vent just about everything.
.:Count my blessings, how God works wonders in my life.
.:Justify myself, in case I've been misunderstood in conversations (even if they don't read my blog), and enable me to understand myself better as well.
.:Reminisce about how young and foolish I was now, in the future.

I'll probably be just nonsencing around, writing stuffs like the embarrassing stuff I did to the music that got stuck in my head, etc.

I am so excited!! LOLS.

Signing off,
Vanessa
