I'm here, virtually

I am a graduate student because I think so and my university status tells me so, but I am virtually a writer because that is the direction my goals and desires are taking me. The mere act of writing itself may not be enough to establish myself a writer, but I am virtually every bit the writer that I can hope/strive to become. Virtual is to be and not quite be simultaneously. A thing can only be something when coupled with what it is not—not only the signifier and signified, but the unsignified as well. (Kind of like how this entry makes sense and doesn’t make sense). To be virtual is to be what your mind, imagination, and understanding will allow (or desire) you to be.
