All About Me

I started writing this blog for one main reason: to hold myself accountable.

At my sister's wedding.

I've had the same personal goals for years now, and in some instances since the beginning of high school. However, I've let these personal goals fall by the wayside for a variety of reasons. Now I'm saying to myself 'tough stuff! You're an adult now! Take charge and DO something!' That's precisely what I'm doing. Something!

When I have goals or a project I like to have someone to report to. This doesn't mean I want an authority figure standing over my should barking orders. This simply means that I want to check in with someone to let them know I'm working hard. I'm writing this blog primarily as a way to keep written progress so I can see my growth and accomplishment over the months (and years?). If  I can meet others with the same goals, or inspire someone to do the same, then I'd just be thrilled!

 Things you may or may not know about me:

• When I was a kid I used to be able to do a cartwheel and land in the splits. I envy my childhood flexibility.
• I don't know how to open a combination lock. Some life skills I just lack.
• My favorite food is chocolate cake. There's a delicious bakery in a town not too far away. I make excuses to go to that town just for the cake.
• Harry Potter is the best book series ever. This isn't an 'about me' but moreover a statement of ultimate truth.
• I love nail polish. My toes are always painted some crazy color like hot pink, teal, or glitter. 
• I don't often read fiction. My favorite books are all non-fiction, either about social sciences or history.
