My first attempt at a second blog

It seems I've recently been too caught up in other peoples blogs to consider whether what I'm writing and doing is influenced by people I admire and not based on what really interests me. So this is my second attempt, my true to myself blog. Not limited by convention or one category. I'm free to write, free to speak and most of all free to be myself.

I am very much influenced by everything around me which often leaves me wondering whether I am ever truly myself. Yet mimicking the films I love or the books I read then moving on while still retaining an ounce of the previous obsession layers on me another thin crust of myself. I shouldn't be ashamed of that. For who is truly unique and without influence?

I think this blog will contain a record of the crusts of influence as I get older. The fresh start for this blog is reflected in my reality with university peeping nervously round the corner. So this blog is as much a diary for me as anything. My faliure last time was trying to entertain people I don't know. I'll entertain myself and if anyone else reads this and finds themselves ammused then i'm very glad.
