NEW

I made this blog page for a class, but ended us not needing it. I let it marinate in its uselessness for a while and finally decided that I'd try the blogging thing. Which, frankly, scars the beejeezus out of me.

I've been trying to open my mind to new things and concepts lately, so I've decided to brave it and try writing out my...life? emotions? thoughts? I don't even know what this is yet. Most likely, it will consist of a jumbled mess of all of the above.


I took this picture this past summer at a lake near my house. It is always so beautiful in the mornings when we are sunrise skiing. I added the lyrics...obviously. The song really speaks to me. As to what it says, i still have almost no idea.

It kind of made me think about my place in the world. My physical place, initially. I thought about Oklahoma, the place where I've spent my entire life thus far. It is mostly bland, with mediocre views and cities, a crime rate on the heavier end of the scale, and lots of rednecks. But now as i think about it, it isn't all that bad. Sure, the weather is bipolar and the most FAQ (from non-Okies) is, "Oh, do you know the musical?"  But it's still where I call home.

As of three weeks ago, I'm an Arkansan (For about 10 months out of the year). Arkansas is pretty. The trees are actually tall, with no daily tornado-speed winds to rip them out of the ground. It's peaceful, with  nice views...but the rednecks...i just can't escape!


I have a new place of residence. I have a new bed, a new desk, a new roommate, a new set of towels. I'm making new friends. And i'm blogging. Life is change.
