Hello, world! A star is born!
At least that’s what I’ll continue telling myself as I add more content to this blog. My first serious foray into the blogosphere, The Grass is Always Greener—so named in honor of my Op Ed column that ran in my high school’s newspaper, The Chronicle, in my tenure as editor—is my attempt to continue writing after four years as an undergraduate St. John’s College in Annapolis, MD.
This blog is ultimately a vain attempt to hone my academic skills in writing, poetry, and translation.
Now, with Bachelor’s Degree in tow, I am braving the world of college admissions at my alma mater and, y’know, selling out to the Man. This blog is ultimately a vain attempt to hone my academic skills in writing, poetry, and translation. I hope this will combat the crushing ennui of an entry-level desk job.
For those of you who haven’t noticed (or who don’t quite know me yet), yes, the title of this blog is a pun on my last name—Pendergrass. While I won’t explicitly claim to know anything about grass (except for maybe a croquet court), nor do I have an overabundance of optimism about sod in other regions, I do think that the title is expressive of one thing: me… because my name’s in it.
Without further ado, I present to you my thoughts, my work, and myself.
Well, once I write something, that is.
