The Real Me


You know how college is supposed to be the time to find out who you really are? Well, I am coming to find out that the Real Me is a Real Weirdy. I guess I should have realized something was up when the first thing I wrote on my bucket list was to milk a cow. Oddly enough, I am also coming to find that I am a-okay with that. (Both the cow thing and the I-am-a-weird-person thing. Which kind of go hand in hand, I'll admit.) I am the kind of person that spends her Friday night on Pinterest in basketball shorts, while consuming a banana covered in chocolate chips and marshmallows. (Ok fine. It wasn't Friday night. It was 10 minutes ago. Friday night sounds way more dramatic than Tuesday evening though. And I probably have done such actions on a Friday night as well. But that's besides the point.) I love to read- the cheesier the better. Reading an unrealistic book is like an escape from the very real realities of life. I LOVE country music. Yes, a lot of it is about drinking and other not-so-admirable things, but what popular music doesn't talk about these things nowadays? You just have to pick and choose your favorites. A lot of country music actually has great story lines, lessons about life, or advice. One of my absolute favorites, for example, Josh Turner's Me and God.


And if you are really interested in my Josh Turner tangent...

So the Real Me is a bit weird, but that's all cool. After all, being unique is all the rage right now, right?
