End of the Brog

So as my attention increasingly turns from keeping in touch with Columbia friends to saying goodbye to high school friends, I realized I had neither the time nor need for the Brog. So, this is my last post. You won't have me to kick around any more.

But before I go, a few thoughts on my time blogging:

1) Being a massive tool is a good thing. I got a fair number of facebook posts from friends concerned about my self-esteem. I should have made clearer that I don't consider the 'massive tool' label a negative. We all aspire to certain systems and images. that;s healthy: if you didn't you'd be pretty boring. but copying other people is only a problem when you deny that you are doing so. In that sense, being a tool is good: you are acknowledging that you imitate and copy.

2) personal blogs are (possibly) a positive force for society. Brog didn't, as I originally hoped it would, inspire me to do interesting things. most of my free time is spent cooking. But it did let me think about my week. Narcissism? yes, but in a very systematic way

3) why does everyone need to have three points? the first two were good enough

Please interrupt my German studying- send me emails and calls. Danke!
