Every once in a while I get this urge to write, like I have something to say that I need to tell everyone. And i figured now would be a great time to start. I am about to start the second semester of my sophomore year of college, and the start of 2010 marks the start of the second decade I've been around. This realization made me think about all of the things I've done and all that i hope to do. Which is why, i guess, i've decided to write here, so that maybe I could inspire someone the way my favorite blogs have inspired me. A lot of the reason I'm writing a blog at all is because of all of the wonderful ones I have been reading for the past few months, and a lot of the things I will be writing will be inspired by these lovely ladies, and i'll be sure to give credit where credit is due :)
But to start with, here's nineteen things about me:
1. I really like using smilie emoticons, it's the only way you can show emotion through text and I don't like people not knowing how I really feel when I can't talk to them in person. :)
2. I am a Virgo and I think that horoscopes are, in most cases, disturbingly accurate.
3. Music is my life. And as cliche as that sounds it could not be more true. I play 3 instruments and sing with at least a little bit of proficiency. If I had to choose another area to study, it would unquestionably be music performance with a concentration on education. I've thought this through.
5. Speaking of music, I listen to a wide range, a bit of everything, but mostly indie/alternative type stuff. My favorite band is Coldplay, but don't hold that against me.
5. Sarcasm is my go-to sense of humor. It's pretty much all I've got.
6. I hate doing things that I'm not good at. If I'm not immediately good something, I probably won't stick with it because I'll just get frustrated. A prime example? Any sport involving a racket.
7. I am a certifiable coffee addict.
8. I have red hair and I love it.
9. Trying to think of nineteen interesting facts about myself is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be.
10. I'm studying international business and accounting, but I have no intention of being an accountant, I just had to pick a concentration.
11. I'm much more interested in traveling the world and writing about it for a living than anything else.
12. I feel like I was born in the wrong decade, I like old fashioned things like chivalry and the art of conversation.
13. I am constantly trying to better myself, there's always something different I want to do or something new that I'm inspired by.
14. The thing I value most in people is honesty, insincerity is the biggest turnoff.
15. I like to bake when I'm upset or nervous about something. I make some mean chocolate chip cookies.
16. Driving with the windows down in the middle of the summer while blasting good music is my favorite thing in the world.
17. For a while I have been extremely cynical about love and everything that goes along with it, but I'm starting to come around a little bit.
18. I only wanted to do 19 things about me because that's how old I am and I thought it would be cute.
19. I hope writing in here isn't just a phase and continues for a while, I have a lot to say :)
That's about it. A good start I think. :)
