First step is always the hardest

So since I'm not exactly full of exciting things to talk about I thought a blog would never really be for me. However I found myself creating one at 1:30 am none the less. Now why would someone like me make a blog? Well I can't really say why I chose to do it, other than it is just an extension of me. An online journal where I can voice my opinions, likes, dislikes and so on. I can have my very own scrap book of my life that I can look back on when I'm older and either regret the hell out of it, or be proud to reminisce about starting a blog at 25 and how I evolved from there.

Now will I care if anyone reads this other than myself or my very supportive grandmother? Not exactly. I wold be grateful if I got a response, but I didn't sign up for it. I have no direction and I have no theme for this blog, so it will more than likely just be me giving a snap shot of my current life for my older self, like those notes you wrote to yourself in grade 8 that you couldn't open again until grade 12. I'm not usually one for hiding my thoughts and opinions much topics so I may end up getting myself in trouble later down the line with this little blog, but it just weeds the good from the bad in my life, I guess.

So I guess in case there happens to be followers I should write something about myself so I don't come off holier than thou. I'm 25, and since publishing this first entry I am awaiting acceptance or rejection from college. I'm sure that will be a future blog entry for sure. I love most of my family with a fierce loyalty. I fully believe you can pick and chose who you love and have in your life when referring to your family just as you can with friends. They say you can't pick family, now granted that is correct; but you can chose to have them in your life or not. You always have a choice. I'm not a feminist but I do believe that no man should ever hit a woman or assume her place is in the kitchen. This is not 1915, the woman's suffrage was not in vain. I don't mind the jokes about it, it's when a man is serious about those views that I walk away faster than I thought I could. Love is not blind to me. I have a select few friends that I cherish more than anything in the world and I would rather have that than hoards of people. I stay in mostly, I love video games and chatting with people. I'm shy when meeting new people in public, and when it comes time for holidays with extended family you don't know, I can be quite people wont remember me being there when they think back on that occasion. I have two dogs. Kazooie:  a miniature schnauzer and Gizmo: Chihuahua. I rescued Kazooie when he was two months, the vet told me he wouldn't live past seven weeks. He's now four and on May 20th 2013 will celebrate his 5th birthday. Gizmo I rescued January of this year. He was used in a puppy mill and beaten by the male owner. It's a slow process but he is very protective of me and is warming up to people and other animals all the time. Yes they are my life and chances are I will even pic-spam them in here from time to time.  I'm allergic to Mushrooms and Eggs, odd combo I know. I'm scared of bees and tarantulas will literally stop me in my tracks and I will  lose the ability to walk. I can't watch jaws because I'm scared of sharks and that music makes me cover my ears and start singing really loudly.

I think that last paragraph was way too long, but I needed to give parts of me away so people can walk away with a better understanding of me. So if this gets some views, if it doesn't all I can say is, till next time. Stay classy.
