Purpose of this blog

I find that writing things down is helpful in a number of ways. Firstly it helps me commit those things to memory better and secondly it helps me clarify my own thoughts. There are other benefits as well, such as helping improve my English and engaging my brain in general - something which I have grown unaccustomed to in recent years. For these reasons I will attempt this, my second blog, and hopefully this time I'll write more than three entries.
