I’m going to be honest here, I’m not entirely sure what to put here since this appears to be the first post. For readers who just happen to find this blog, I’m one of five women/girls/gals/females/(plural noun) posting in this blog on a Monday through Friday schedule. Where did this blog come from? It came from Your Pants. There was a thread about group blogging, blogs with themes, blogs with no themes, and a general idea of getting to know other Nerdfighters through the blogs. There was such a high interest that many groups were formed and this is one of them.
That was my form of an introduction to this blog, and I’m sure everyone might have a slightly different opinion about what they think this blog is, should, or will be. But that was as generalized as I could get it. Now, I suppose introductions are in order then on account of this being the blog’s first week? Introduce ourselves a bit and maybe what's happening? Because That's what I'm going to do.
Hello! My name is Sarah, sometimes Inova since Sarah is SUCH a common name and when there are four Sarah’s in the same room it does get a bit confusing, it does not help that the internet just adds to the possible number of Sarah’s in one place. Oops, rambled there. I’m from the state of Massachusetts if anyone would like to know. I came up with a list of things I want people to know and things I don’t want people to know until I felt like people would only know me as a list and I don’t want to be a list to someone, personalities are built over time so isn’t that how you should know someone? I guess some general information would still be okay. The things I like would be science, art, Doctor Who, making people laugh, and telling stories. That would be really general. Things I wish people wouldn’t know about me, I am afraid to take the lead because I think I’m inadequate, I have horrible paragraph structure, run-on sentence issues, and I swear I use ‘I’ too much.
That’s just a general summary of the person I am before you go “OH GEEZ! What did I get myself into? This girl is crazy, and look at her grammar! It’s horrible! Time to make a run for it.” Or you know, something along those lines.
Should I tell you what I’m doing right now? I’m out looking at colleges, I just visited Smith today and it was AMAZING, I really want to get into this school. I have a big interest in science and there’s an astronomy major and an astrophysics minor available there, while I’ll probably just go for a physics major and the astrophysics minor. You don’t live in dorms at the school either, instead you live in houses with other girls, the ones I’ve seen are these renovated Victorian style houses and this place is just really cool. I wish I had taken pictures of it. So that’s what I’m doing as I write this. And that's the end of who I am and what I was up to as an intro.
I’m sure everyone else’s intros will be loads better, I’ll read them and say “I wish I could write good blog posts like that.” After which I might try to edit this post to make it look like I knew back then what I was doing. I’m awfully lazy so that might not actually happen. I look forward to reading what the rest of you are going to post.

Yay, good introduction! I've been wishing that I was going last so I could see what everyone else wrote before I had to do mine, but mostly I was just glad I didn't have to go first :) You did a good job getting us started.
ReplyDeleteSmith sounds really exciting! Good luck with applications and everything.
And I'm sure our intros won't be "loads better" than yours, this was great.
lololol I love this :DDDDDD
ReplyDeleteYeah, hi. I'm reading your post and you could be looking over my shoulder but you aren't :)
