the beginning

hello blogging world! so i thought it would be fitting to use my first blog post to explain the name of my blog Overused Ellipsis. 

   it stems from an annoying habit of mine. when i make a new friend or run into an old friend and exchange cellphone numbers to text, and we start to text back and forth, they always bring up how i tend to use the ellipsis way too much. i can't help it. it just seems to be more appropriate when i'm typing/texting something out. if i use a period it makes the sentence seem stern, and a period is used to show the end of thought. however my thoughts are never ending lol. exclamations make it look like i'm screaming, and commas make it look like one big run-on sentence and that gets annoying and not all of my phrases can be classified into one run-on sentence. so i end up string my unique individual thoughts together by using an ellipsis. 

   yes people, i have thought this out. sad and pathetic, but true. i just wanted to explain the title and also at the same time warn you. my posts will have multiple ellipsises (ellipsis? ellipsi? i'm gonna have to look up the plural form of ellipsis). however,  i thought it would be ironic to have the first post of my new blog not contain any. so here we are, a blank slate. let the rants, complaints, and venting sessions begin! and who knows, maybe a happy post will be thrown in the mix somewhere lol.
