Why Yow Yow?

I realized just now that there aren’t a lot of posts addressing why Yow Yow! is here. It has been in the back of my head since the start of the year and since I reopened the blog. If I wanted to continue with Yow Yow for another year, I should definitely know the purpose of it and what I’m doing. As I’m writing this right now, I’m formulating the thoughts together.

I started reading various blogs when I was 16. I think I was really interested in the fact that news was circulating in another form and even quicker than for me waiting for the paper or the nightly news on television.

I’m not here to just post news and random things to make you laugh and waste your time. When I was younger and reading blogs, I was probably the only one in my group of friends doing that. No one could relate to what I was talking about or what I was interested in. I’d tell a close friend a story I read and they’d just be like, “oh cool…So what are we doing this weekend?”

While this blog is a creative outlet for me to speak my mind, it is also a way for me to share news I think you might find interesting. Sometimes you won’t find this stuff in newspapers or television. I’ve always believed that you can learn so much from people and that surrounding yourself with as much knowledge as you can is important. There’s a lot more to life than we all know and if that information can’t get to you, then I will do my best to make it happen.

Happy Friday everyone! Go do something that makes you feel alive today
