Hullo kiddies!
Well...because I get very easily bored, I noticed in my bookshelf a folder. I pulled it out, thinking it was my 3rd grade essay on Abraham Lincoln that's been long-lost for years, but instead it turned out to be this autobiography from the 7th grade. I've decided to redo it, an exclusive for all who read my blog, and adjust it accordingly since, obviously, I've changed from the 7th grade. The topics were as follows (excluding the boring ones):
Me, Myself, and I
Family Traditions
My Hobbies
My Most Special Memory
My Most Embarrassing Moment
My Many Pet Peeves
My Favorite Person
My Best Friends
My Biggest Life Lesson
My Goals and Dreams
My 'Mr. Right'
My Biggest Worry
My Life
and, last but not least
What I Want You To Think of Me
Enjoy!
Me, Myself, and I
Not much to say here except my name is Jamie, I am 17 years old and my parents are Tommi and Doug. I was born in Gainesville, Florida, and I've traveled a lot since then, living in Georgia, Missouri, and a lot of places in Arkansas. I've been through 6 different schools, but since this is my senior year, I highly doubt I'm moving. I'm going into the 12th grade, as I've said, and I'm pretty excited about it. Excited...nervous...it's all the same. I'm just glad my junior year is over. Sorry Brophy and Dedra. Well...I'm just glad I don't have Mr. Dykes anymore. And no more science. PRAISE THE LORD! This year is mostly going to be focused on more creative aspects since I'm taking English 12, Drama/Speech, and Creative Writing. All of my classes but one is going to be enjoyable, I'll say. I'm not exactly ordinary, nor extraordinary. I'm just a girl with all the same genitalia as the rest of them and, yes, my ovaries hurt when I look at Brad Pitt. -grins- I'm going to end that there because I so have another comment to say, but I won't. I like reading (I'm forcing myself to do a lot of it this summer), traveling, and various other things, some of which set me apart from others. Throughout these last few years I've come to accept myself (as much as an insecure teenage girl can) and understand why I do the things I do. I've also come to except my sexual and physical self, two sides that are very hard to like. I'm pretty much proud of myself, but like any other human, I'm not perfect and I do try to improve myself to the best of my abilities. I just hope I'm doing a good enough job.
Family Traditions
Looking back on what I used to say were family traditions, I'm not too sure if I have very many besides the ritualistic Johnny Depp movie and (surprise, surprise) movie night on New Year's Day. A lot of the traditions I used to have are now non-applicable, seeing as I've moved on as a person, and so has my mother. I've mostly disassociated myself with my church (not Lutheranism, but my church), and therefore don't like to work the Fair booth as I used to, and my mother refuses to decorate the Christmas tree with me (since my father always bitched her out for "not decorating the tree in the right way" -twitches- He used to move my army men away from their base I made...I AM NOT GEORGE W. BUSH! I LIKE MAH TROOPS HOME DAMN IT! -breathes heavily-), and we try not to collect cats as we used to (seeing as the house is in bad enough shape with these damn dogs).
My Hobbies
Honestly, when I think of the word hobby, I think of something like bird watching or gardening or something like that, but I really don't do anything of that sort. Especially if it involves going outside. I like being pale, damn it. Well...I do read a little bit, an obsessive thing I have about if I like something, I want to know everything about it. I listen to various music and I am in the choir. I write a little bit, not as much as usual, and I'm a big sci-fi nerd. I like debates about things I'm passionate about and collectiving LotR and Star Wars action figures. Especially LotR ones. I have about...a good...forty...fifty of them maybe? I dunno. They keep on coming up with new ones. What am I to do? I like Japanese things, mostly shows and am currently obsessed with Pokemon (as per usual), Chobits and Case Closed. I watch a lot of shows on a regular basis including the Nanny, the Winx Club, Saturday Night Live, Lost, and a lot of other random shows. And I've no idea why I'm craving dijon mustard. ...
