This may be a tad early, but allow me to introduce this non-existant blogging audience to an idea that I have been letting sit in my head for a while now, because I don't want this to fail like my others have. In essence, the idea surrounding this blog is the only reason that I think it will last. JKLMNT is a blog based on my trips on San Francisco's Municipal Transit System, also known as MUNI. JKLMNT are the main underground routes, and they're the only ones I really know and use daily. Hopefully, with every day I travel on public transportation, I will have some sort of an idea for a blog and will write one as soon as I get home. If not, I'll at least brainstorm something to be ready once I have time.
Now, I know that this may not get much of a following, if any at all, which is why, as I write this, even though it may seem like I'm talking to you, I'll probably just be using this as a melting pot for the many philosophical ideas that wander about my head at different times in my life. I never really want to forget them, so I figure it is best to record them in some way. They may not seem interesting to anyone else, but I love my memories, and, seeing as they never tend to be very permanent, I want to make sure they stay somewhere. I have had many good times, but in my mental menagerie of great times, they all tend to blend into a simple era of happiness. Now, that doesn't seem like a particularly bad thing, but I want something concrete when I look back at these times.
All of that seems like it was just me blabbering on about nothing. Probably true. If anything that is just me validating my reasons to myself, which is something I hope to stop doing by the end of this. Why do we need to validate ourselves anyways? Especially ourselves. Shouldn't we be the most accepting of our own choices? Okay, I should stop being so strange before anyone even starts appreciating my strange qualities. I'll have to ease anyone who reads this into my strange personality and ability to rant and rave about one thing and end up talking about something in a completely different universe while still maintaining a reasonably reasonable train of thought as to how I got there.
Alright, so, as for serious introductions, my name is Tristan. I'm a senior in high school. I don't think it matters too much as to which high school I attend. I don't want people judging who I am based on the school, since my experience with my fellow high-schoolers and teenagers is that they never fit the mold you give them. So you might as well not give me a mold, and just let me develop free form into whomever I am going to be. As for my interests, since I'm not sure if I'll ever talk about it again in my blog, I am rather completely obsessed with Theatre and Fashion alike. I don't know which of those fields I want to delve into for my career, but I know it will probably be one or another. I've heard it many a time that I should just pursue Costume Design, but I know for a fact that it wouldn't be enough for me to be backstage my whole life. There's something about telling a story through acting that really makes my heart beat at a fulfilling pace. At the same time, however, I know that the Fashion world will never be far out of reach for me. If only I had enough money to just be a supremely well-dressed actor. With the current day, that doesn't seem likely, so I'll have to wait and see how it all turns out.
