After leaving the blogging world for approximately a year and half, I feel that it is time for me to return. Perhaps, more precisely, I now have time to return. Sophomore and Junior years of college are over, and now I am coasting toward the light at the end of the undergraduate tunnel. I have found myself short on responsibility, long on time, and desperately needing a new toy/creative outlet to fill all of my time with. I’ve tried Twitter, but honestly, it gets annoying. So, wordpress.com I ask you to please help me keep my brain from rotting before I hit medical school and to allow me to write all of my not so deep or coherent thoughts to you and the rest of the world as if anyone actually cared.
Since I’ve been gone many things have happened which may or may not be of interest to you my friends:
1) I took my first trip across the pond after receiving my first passport from our lovely State Department. Unfortunately, blogging was not something I filled my time with, but if you’re lucky, I will post some of my emails I sent to friends during my time in England.
2) Jolie went to Washington. While it sounds glorious, in all actuality, I answered phones and helped an office run smoothly. I had a great time on the hill meeting fellow interns, getting to know staff, turning 21, dealing with a landlord regarding a rotting roof, and walking in the places that people far older and important than me have walked. Again, re-posted e-mails are a possibility until I am able to come up with something creative to write about.
3) I decided on themes of books that I want to write someday. I will not be sharing these with you at all, because the ideas are mine (or mine along with friends) and I want to surprise the rest of you whenever they come out.
4) I got in to medical school. Awesome, but most of you don’t care.
5) I have developed an unhealthy obsession with shows that numb my mind. LOST is the greatest sci-fi show ever invented. It numbs my mind, because honestly, my mind starts questioning my existence inside this world and causes me to ask “when am I?” If you haven’t started watching it, you should make your way over to the nearest video rental destination and pull season one off the shelf. You’ll probably have dreams about how to get the Oceanic 6 back to the island while simultaneously being the person that helps Kate realize she wants to be with Jack forever too. (Yes, the “too” implies that I have had these dreams.) Secondly, I have developed a completely unhealthy obsession with Gossip Girl. A show that I will be the first to admit is below me, but I simply can’t turn my head away. The show has caused me to look up spoilers (eonline.com, gossipgirlinsider.com). I have also been known to say, “I wish Blair Waldorf was my best friend.” It is my greatest guilty pleasure in life, and for those of you who are disappointed, I am truly sorry. Please try not to judge me and join me sometime. Posts on these two shows are for sure to come.
6) I started dating someone who is awesome. Just kidding. Please see #5 for two reasons that this is obviously not true.
I think that pretty much updates you. More to come, but I figure this is a pretty good introduction to my second try at the good ‘ole blog.
