A single step.

They say the hardest step is the first one out the door; That even the longest journey starts with a single step. Its the same with blogging, starting is the hardest! You need to think of a good name for your blog, apply a template, try to customise that template, get horribly frustrated with said template, give up for a few hours,and finally write a post.

To gain a bit of inspiration, I went back to good old LiveJournal and read the blog I kept when I was 15-17. Boy was I an angsty little teenager! Even though I was dealing with lots of typical teenage issues that felt like the end of the world, I still kept a regular blog with a handful of regular readers. I loved that blog, in a way it was my best friend. It was always there if I needed to rant and vent about something. Plus, I had friends all over the world in different time zones to share my thoughts with. I miss it now.

So I decided it was high time I started another blog. After a bit of research I settled on scintillaphile. Scintilla meaning 'little spark', 'phile' meaning loving. Because I like to think I love the little sparks in life.

This blog will be about all sorts of little things, and big things too. I've got lots going on between planning my wedding for December 2012, trying to lose 10-15 kilograms, finishing my nursing degree, starting my first real job, and hopefully buying a house!

So, whats going on with you? Do you have a blog I can follow?
