blogs and free saturday nights


being an LDS girl, this is probably quite a shocker, but i have a blog. a blog that i actually take quite a bit of pride in, as vain or undeserving as it may be; at least i know that my mother reads it. This being said, somewhere along the long nights trying to generate synonyms, i developed a writing style.
i am under no pretenses that my writing is the be-all-end-all of blogs, but i do believe that it will assist  me in my attempt to generate the “kairos” we discussed in class. as a BYU student writing to BYU student’s about dating seems to always be a topic at its peak, but that is also a part of the problem. after the seventh article, the routine gets tired. there is a new external element that i feel will help me establish that “peak” moment in readers: the mission age change.
now, i plan on being a girl who stays at home, (at least for the next year) so, not only do i have a full campus of RM boys to advertise myself to (this is all hypothetical, of course *wink), i also have a message of hope (and, yeah, possibly minimal chastisement) to send to these fellows, downtrodden with the departures of good friends.
i will be writing in good authority, seeing as i have sent off many both male and female missionaries, and will be doing so in the future, but establishing the authority of a date-starved, Mormon, Young Single Adult shouldn’t be too out of character from the girl i am every day.
