Background says, "ME"

Hey all. So I'm minorly obsessed with blogging now. Maybe I'll stick with it. My closest friends could tell you that I start so many little projects, and it lasts a while, but I eventually move onto my next obsession. I guess it's kind of like a collection of hobbies. I work on one hobby a while then move on to another. The one hobby I started in grade school and still to this day continue with is journaling, though, when a lot happens in a day it's harder for me to sit down and take the time to write about it, so I usually end up with little footnotes as an entry. Then I get behind and next thing I know, I have a couple years worth of footnotes and some of the words just don't make sense to me anymore.

We'll see how this works out. As of now, I'm sticking to it.

As for this background. My words may seem kind of cynical, but I assure you this background screams my personality. I'm obsessed with palm trees and HAWAII. I've been there twice. Once on tour as part of a dance company: we performed at the mall in Honolulu, at the Polynesian Cultural Center, and at Pearl Harbor. It was my dream come true. I never thought I'd get the opportunity to visit Hawaii. Leaving was sad.

Then, after my hubby joined the US Coast Guard, guess where our first station was??? Hawaii! So I got the opportunity to live there for 3 months. Those were some great times. My Traveling Blog has pictures of our adventures.

So ya, this background suits me very well. It may not fit some of the randomness in this blog, but it's my personality.

I guess I should give you a quick trip through the essence that is me. I'm shy when I meet you, but in time, I come out of my shell. I like to talk about the past; I like to listen. I love keeping to myself, but I know it's fun to go out every once in a while, mostly in smaller crowds. I hate driving in traffic on a big freeway. I'm very nostalgic about the past. I occasionally worry about the future. I'm pretty laid back and passive, but if you do something to really piss me off, I'll probably tell you off. BTW, it's hard to piss me off. I've only ever told off a couple of people: One, a girl was talking about hubby and I behind our backs but loud enough for us to hear. Two, my supervisor made a coworker cry and I made him apologize. Three, a coworker was telling Hubby to do something that was impossible to do at the given moment. Four, a coworker was telling me what to do instead of doing her job...get this, I was her boss. Five, a former friend tried to turn my Hubby against me by telling him lies about me. Then, there are a few businesses: A taxi service charged our credit card and didn't provide the service they charged us for. An internet company wouldn't let us out of our contract even though legally they had to because we were moving via military orders. 

Here I go, getting worked up over the memories of these stupid people. Yes, I also hold grudges. But ask 90% of the people I've ever met, and they'll tell you I'm a nice person.

Anyways, that's me: Shy, friendly, nostalgic, listener, and don't piss me off. 

I also enjoy long walks on the beach, photography, writing, dancing and camping. I'm an outdoorsy girl, and low maintenance. I'm ready to go in 15 minutes. I'm casually fashionable, but as soon as I'm in my house, the pj's go on.

That's all for now!
