i am.... <---- this picture says it all! haha. I hate writing stuff like this; trying to use words in a few sentences to explain 25 years of who I am as a human. It reminds me of those awful school projects and annoying application/interview questions where you must explain your strengths and weaknesses (no one likes those and everyone makes things up so I don't even know how effective they are in determining who 'the perfect candidate' is; reaaally I’d be curious to find that out, but not that curious to actually look it up somewhere). Which brings me to one of my shining characteristics: I trail in conversations or explanations or just thoughts in general. I’d like to call myself an introvert, because it’s all the rage these days, plus there's lots of good quote-ee pins I could use to express myself ("the quietest people have the loudest minds" is one of my favorites), but unfortunately I’m trying to be unapologetically myself these days (which is hard to do - and yes, also a great pinterest quote). And who am I? A rambler, of the non-quiet variety. I express things in like this excessive-run-on-sentence with an incredible over usage of semi-colons (because I think they must secretly make me feel like a free spirited philosopher/ poet) and brackets – (I had a brain fart just now and had to ask the kid next to me studying what looks like really hard mathy physics to remind me the name of those “brackety things people use when writing”). He’s not impressed. See? I confuse myself. Except not really, I know exactly what I mean but its just really hard to be concise. Concise is boring. So. Back on track. Its really hard to explain me without starting from square one and highlighting all the important bits on the way –but that would take way too long, and you’d lose interest in reading this faster than you already are. In fact, I’d probably lose interest myself and need to get a snack and have a pee. So I’ll stick to the basics and hopefully as stories come up, I'll include a description of important characters slash background. This is already more work than I anticipated. Focus focus focus. I am 25.6. I'm an RN going back to school to become an RMT. I’ve got 4 sisters (Mary bo peep, Hannah banana, Gracie poo & Lizzie), 3 brothers (Pepper James/Ethan, SethLandon, & Johnnyboy), no grandparents, a mumsy, a Darrell ( 2 rs 2 ls, I have to remind myself every time), and some lovely friends that are family. My best friend is Kaela (they really need to invent a more grown up word for best-friend because everytime I say that I feel 10 and adults look at me weird). I met her my very first day of university – I didn’t know a soul and her face was the first one I really cared to notice. I Am Excited. About everything. If I were a punctuation mark, I would definitely be like a triple exclamation mark!!! I've tried really hard to not exclaim everything in this write up, which has been hard. But I've been told it sounds like im yelling constantly at you. I'm not! It's just excitement. Plus exclamation marks are happy. I am happy! Periods aren’t happy. See! I am also a Cross-fitter (insert kipping pullup comment/joke here, I've heard them all, they aren’t funny and we don’t care). I found it just over a year ago and, in all seriousness, it changed my life!! I like funniness and funny people. I like learning about new stuff and people and facts and philosophies. I like quotes (monica richter knows this well). I like love; love it more like. Not really just being in it but how it looks on other people, how it feels, what it makes us, how it forms us and bring us together and makes us all just human beings connected on a cool deep level. It's just really rather lovely! I like driving with the heat dial on 2, with the defroster plus feet setting, with the window open half way. My room is a disaster zone 70% of the time. Maybe 85% is more accurate, if we're being honest here. Like my sisters, I’m a bit of an 85-year old inside a young person’s body. And let me tell you, 85 is rockin'. I enjoy puddles. And movies. And coffee and tea. I draw and color; stick men mostly, but man is it fun. Books are awesome, too. Same with nature! Well. I'm kinda out of ideas at the moment. This is always the place I struggle with; the conclusion. It's just so sad. and I always kind of just severe it because I dont know what to do with it . So I’ll stop it here before things get outa hand. |
