The origin of the idea

If you know me well enough you probably know that usually I have tons of thoughts going through my head and of course you should know that these thoughts cant just stay there they have to be expressed. Sometimes a random thought can just pop into my head and I'd immediatly feel the urge to send you a text message or call you or e-mail later to tell about it and see what you think. What I'm trying to say is that I have to put somewhere everything I have in my head. First I thought about writing a journal, but it didnt seem to be perfect enough as the journal would be the only one I'd share my feelings, thoughts, emotions, goals and plans with. So blog seemed to be quite a good option.
Then - to write it in English or Russian? Of course I could probably express more writing in my native language, but I have many friends all around the globe that I'd like to share with as well, plus practicing my English writing is always good, right? ;)
And finally I called it "How I learnt to live" because... because this is what we all should do, right? Human beings trying to live consciously and we learn all the time anyways. I could've called it "the story of my life" but it's too cheesy...
