I've been inspired by various people I follow on Twitter and/or are subscribed to on YouTube (e.g. hayleyghoover, italktosnakes, lauren) to take part in Blog Every Day April (BEDA), which was started by Maureen Johnson.
But as you may have observed, I'm a few days late starting :o). Something I've noticed about myself recently is that I'm not one to take part in the latest trend just because everyone else is doing it. It's not as much for the reason that I particularly want to take a stand against 'being a sheep', but I like to observe from a distance for a while before deciding to get involved. YouTube, for example. And Twitter. And on a less internet-related note, fashion trends such as skinny jeans tucked into boots (but NOT Ugg boots!).
I tend to look at a trend, decide whether I think it's cool/fun, and if I think it's interesting, just watch for a while and keep up with what's going on. Regularly watch a few YouTube channels, for example. Or keep up with a few Twitterers. Then I often decide that it's something I'd like to do, and I'll get on in there. Of course, this means that I am slower to jump on the bandwagon, but I like it that way. It means that once I start doing something I know it's something that is in line with who I am, not just because I want to be like everyone else.
So, I'll end it there. I have a tendancy to ramble, and I won't subject you to that from the word go. :o) Who exactly 'you' is I'm not quite sure yet, and this may end up being a project for my own personal amusement and creativity. But if others decide they like my small observations on life then I'd love to have you along for the ride.

Oh, and because I am a sheep, even if a slow one :oP, here's something to add at the end of each post to be some sort of amusing ongoing collection of thoughts:
