Just an observation: often it takes a death for us to sit around and talk about a loved one's nature and reflect on fun stories about that person. Well, today my family (minus my big bro) sat around the table and told humorous anecdotes to his wife of 6 months about when he was growing up and celebrated in general just the person he is. He's off hunting in the woods with a buddy oblivious to his family's recount centering on him. We should burn the ears of the people we love more often.
Happy New Year!

This is my official first blog
Oh dear goodness, I'm a blogger.
This is the result really of last week when I was in typical bored Sunday afternoon fashion, googling a friend ("friend" might be a little generous, but someone I admire from a distance) and was shocked to see this person has kept a blog for 2+ years...and I'm hooked. I checked three times today to see if there was a new blog and already read many of the archived blogs! I believe this is highly ridiculous and bespeaks the fact that I am at home for Christmas break and starting to become bored with vacation. So I've decided to amuse myself and you, my reader ;) with creating my own!
I'm an interesting person, though I believe that is exactly the beauty of the world of blogging...you don't have to be that interesting...life just is and everybody has that to share.
Many of my friends have at one time or another suggested that I have my own tv show...I suppose because they get a kick out of my ridiculousness and want to share their laughing and finger pointing at me with the world. I have also been called by some of my best friends "the strangest member of Mango." (Mango = the eight or so houses that make up where me and my best friends live together at school) So I'm not normal...secret be told I get a thrill out of being silly and especially out of making perfectly awkward situations out of what should be quite normal. I am very intrigued by the human personality.
It would be remiss of me not to pay respect to my chosen profession by attributing to it a large part of why I am who I am. I am a senior at Palm Beach Atlantic University studying Musical Theatre! (This is where Mom jumps in when I tell this to family friends and says ' she also has a major in Communications and a minor in Spanish.') Ah, the justifications we make for ourselves and those we love in fear of what others might think. But I adore my mother and know she is just proud of it all and wants everyone to know all the things she's proud of...
Enough blogging...you've probably stopped reading already and discredited my assertion that I am an interesting person. Well, if you care to, journey with me and I'm sure we'll both be thrilled by the interestingness of life.
