Check it, yo

Remember when MySpace was oh so cool?
Remember those fun little surveys that would get passed around?
You know, the ones that asked exactly the same questions every time but in a different order so you thought it was new when really it wasn't?
Yeah, I was kindasorta addicted to those bad boys.
Truth be told, those little buggers are what brought around my first little bloggy thoughts.  As I was filling them out I would think to myself,


Man, I wish there was somewhere I could go and write down all these weird thoughts constantly rolling around my already overly cluttered brain...


Well, whaddya know--there is!
And now here I am with a blogger version of those bomb.com surveys.  I'm in heaven.
I found this little beaut on one of my many blogstalking adventures.  I think that was the exact moment that I knew I was destined for blogging.
No, seriously guys, it was a life-changing moment.

Torr's 30ish Day Blog Challenge:
Day 1 – A photo of yourself and a description of how your day was.
Day 2 – A photo of something you ate today.
Day 3 – Your idea of the perfect first date.
Day 4 – Your favorite photograph of your best friend.
Day 5 – A photo of yourself two years ago.
Day 6 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.
Day 7 – Your dream wedding.
Day 8 – A song to match your mood.
Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased.
Day 10 – A photo of your favorite place to eat.
Day 11 – What’s in your makeup bag?
Day 12 – A photograph of the town you live in.
Day 13 – Your favorite musician and why?
Day 14 – A TV show you’re currently addicted to.
Day 15 – Something you don’t leave the house without.
Day 16 – Your celebrity crush.
Day 17 – A photo of you and your family.
Day 18 – Something you crave a lot.
Day 19 – Another picture of yourself.
Day 20 – The meaning behind your blog name.
Day 21 – A photo of something that makes you happy.
Day 22 – A letter to someone who has hurt you recently.
Day 23 – 15 facts about you.
Day 24 – A photo of something that means a lot to you.
Day 25 – What’s in your purse?
Day 26 – A photo of somewhere you’ve been to.
Day 27 – A picture of you last year and now and how have you changed since then?
Day 28 – Your favorite movie.
Day 29 – Something you could never get tired of doing.
Day 30 – A photograph of yourself today + three good things that have happened in the past.

So the idea behind this is to follow the schedule and do a post a day for a month...but I don't like rules and I really don't like following rules.  So instead I'm just going to do this at my leisure.  That way I can still keep everyone updated on my oh-so-fabulous life without having to make like two posts a day.  I may be a weirdo overachiever, but not even I'm that set on achieving achievement.  And now that I've typed some form of "achieve" four times in the past two sentences, I've dubbed it the weirdest word ever.  
Seriously, say it.
Achievement.
Ha.

Blogary, part 1

Well hello blog world!  The time has finally come for me to jump on the bandwagon.  I've been having fun little bloggy thoughts for a while now, secretly taking notes about blogs I like, thinking up hilarious posts I could write about my life, and wishing I was creative and funny enough to have my very own blog. Then one day I thought to myself, "Hey! I AM creative and funny! How about I actually make a blog instead of pretending I have one?" So somewhere on my extremely random page and a half of "Things To Accomplish In 2011" list I made sure to write down "Have a blog. Like, a legit blog." And look at me! Only 3 days into the year and I can already check something off my list! Technically, I can check off two things since another "To Do" for the year is journal more. Two down, approximately 87 to go. Whew, maybe I should add "Stop being such a weirdo overachiever" to my list for 2012.
