The Beginning

So this is my beginning. Not the beginning of my life, obviously, but the beginning of my blog adventures. It's my way of saying, "hey, I know I'm interesting, and I know you want to read about my day to day experiences, so here you are. You, my fans, can read about the things I find interesting, annoying, sad...whatever." I'm very excited about this blog. I wish I coud say that this was entirely my idea, but my brother's blog is what inspired me to start.

So lets get down to business. Who am I? You want to know and I want to tell you. I am a 24 year old female, currently on a path to becoming, quite possibly, the greatest bowler of my generation. Bowling is my passion, it's what keeps me going when my life seems to be going no where. However, at this time, I am unable to reveal my current average. I feel that my average is not a reflection of my skills as I am still learning the best forms.

Other than bowling, my life is pretty much normal. I live with my sister because I was fired from my last job and left with no motivation to find another one. That was 2 months ago...december 31st to be exact. I can't really go into the details of why I got fired, but lets just say it was for a ridiculous reason. The life of unemployment is nothing short of amazing, I have loved every minute of it. However, I'm at the point where my bank account is not only dwindling, but full of money that isn't even technically mine. Therefore I have given into "the man" as they call it, and rejoined the work force. I haven't actually started yet, but I will next wednesday, March 5th, 2008. It is a new restaurant called Boston's. The owners are franchisees who, so far, seem to be nice, but we'll give it time. The restaurant was started in Canada. It is also a sports bar. I could care less about sports, but if you want to come in and spend hundreds of dollars on alcohol while watching your favorite sport and your favorite team, play some game that involves a ball of some sort...well, far be it from me to stop you.

Let's talk about my education now. I have spent the last 5 and a half years, currently going on 6, trying to get a bachelors degree. I think it's pathetic that it is taking me so long, but I can't quit...mostly because my parents would kill me, but also because I've already put a lot of money into it. I'm a psychology major, which means it is vital that I become a professional bowler. You see, if you want a decent paying job in the field of psychology, you have to go all the way...which, with my track record could mean up to 10 more years in school. Just talking about it makes me want to vomit. Anyhow, I am currently trying to get through my last semester which consists of 6 units.

Well, that's pretty much all I have to say for now. Hopefully somebody out there will read this.
