Writing Exercises

I am now going to be using this site as a way to work on my creative writing.  I plan on writing about a multitude of topics but at first I will focus on some memories from my past that still stick with me.  Many of them are funny, at least to me, and I hope anyone who reads this will enjoy them.  I imagine it will probably only be me but it helps just to write something down.  And this way I can feel as though I have created something for the world to consume which is an important way the world judges your worth.  I suggest reading the Cracked.com article about 4 hard truths that will help you improve your life.  It is a great article and truly inspiring.  Feel free to leave any critiques or thoughts in the comments so I know what to improve on.  Here I go!
