Popped my blogging cherry!

Wow! I never thought that I would write a blog! This is amazing and easier than I imagined. The purpose of this blog is to share my  experiences on my way to becoming a philosophy professor, to plug charities, and to possibly get in touch with other people that have humanitarian aspirations and a passion for greek antiquity. Another reason for starting this blog is that I want to become a skilled writer and would like to express ideas in a coherent and eloquent way. In other words, practice makes perfect.
