Introduction to a blog

So I've decided to start a blog... Not too sure what else to say in this first post. I wish I could tell you what to expect from this blog but, in all honesty, I don't know myself. I wouldn't be surprised if by next week I lose interest and never think about this venture ever again, but who knows, maybe I'll really get into this. Currently I'm thinking the former is more likely.

Right now you're probably thinking a couple of things. First you're thinking "why would this guy write a blog?" And secondly "and why would anyone ever want to read it?" To the first question, it boils down to a number of possible different reasons. Maybe I have a lot of really interesting thoughts that are just dieing to be heard by someone, maybe I just really enjoy writing and I don't get enough of it in university, but the most likely reason is that I'm just bored. This gives me something to do when I'm procrastinating. Thats right, to avoid writing I have decided to write. Doesn't make a lot of sense but who really cares and who are you to question why I do things? Now to answer your second question with a question. "Why are you reading it?" I'm assuming you know me somehow, and therein lies the main reason that somebody might read this, to gather more knowledge about the enigma that is Matt Burke. If by some twist of fate you have absolutely no idea who I am well you've probably stopped reading by this point but if not then this calls for an introduction... Hello, my name's Matt, I'm a second-year university student, I'm a history major going into education, I live in Kelowna, B.C., and that's about it.

This first post marks the beginning of something. I'll occasionally update so feel free to stop by anytime, no need to call ahead, it's just always nice to see you here.
