As corny as it may be, I'm now a blogger!

Friends, new friends, and family: Welcome to my blog! I'm sure you're surprised to see me blogging! It takes enough effort for me to make a phone call or write an e-mail, and now I'm creating a complete website for me to communicate with the world! But I think this will be fun! A nice escape from my typically monotonous life of school, work, church, and my sad excuse for a love life. Since this is my first post I figured I would lay down the rules for anyone who would like to read my blog.
Rule #1- Please, please, please DO NOT take offense!
I'm a sarcastic person! And since this blog is me sharing my inner thoughts and opinions with you please take what I say with a bit of caution. As you may know, I am a Jersey girl. The buffer between what I think and what I say is basically nonexistant. For instance, when I'm driving and some psycho randomly decides to switch lanes directly in front of my without the courtesy of a BLINKER and then proceeds to go 35 in a 50 I think he/she (even though it is usually a woman in an over sized SUV that's committing this faux pas) is a jerk, therefore I scream out loud that he/she is a jerk, and proceed to stare them down like the idiot they are so that they know they're a jerk :). Never does it cross my mind that I will never see them again and my aggressive behavior has been completely wasted. But my point was that I say what I feel (whether it makes a profound affect or not), and although I try to be PC, I'm not making any promises. And if it seems that I am making rash generalizations and projecting stereotypes, let us all just remember this is all in good fun. I understand we are all children of our Heavenly Father and play a special part in His divine plan. But as you all might have experienced in your own families, some children are more annoying than others ;)
Rule #2- Don't get me wrong, I really do like Provo!
Provo has treated me well. I've met amazing people and had wonderful experiences. People are nice here, people are courteous and respectful, people are attractive, it's awesome! BUT I'm sure I will go off on my occasional rants and raves about various topics (touchy feely male on male contact between straight men, during sacrament meeting, being a personal favorite). Regardless, don't let my skewed east-coast craziness affect your opinion of Provo; make your own observations!
Rule #3- Please Remember that I'm trying to keep a certain level of anonymity
Although many of you know who I am or will easily figure out who I am, please refrain from using my name in comments. I can say more of what I think if people don't know who's mouth it's coming from. So don't call me out! Thanks!
Rule #4- Enjoy!
This blog is for fun, and I hope some people get a few laughs out of it!
