Blog #1 : WELCOME :]

The names Andrea. I’m a freshman in high school. I’m in English 1- Writing and I’m keeping a blog during the second semester.

I’m about 5’2”. I don’t wear glasses, but my eye sight is terrible. I like to wear jeans and sweatshirts, with Rocketdogs. I am generally a happy person. I am outgoing and I get along with a lot of different people. I can basically have a conversation with anyone. I’m very relaxed and easygoing. I get along with guys much better than I get along with girls, simply because they don’t argue with me. I get along with older people better too. Most of my friends are juniors and seniors. I really don’t care much what you think about me, but I do let things get to me sometimes.

Brian Behrens is my friend. :] (He’s sitting beside me.)

I listen to music almost 24/7, and I enjoy watching movies with friends. My favorite bands are Boys like Girls, Paramore, We The Kings, Valencia, Something Corporate, All Time Low, Cute Is What We Aim For, and many more. I also listened to bands long before anyone else, such as Good Charlotte, Blink-182, The All-American Rejects, and all the other “popular” bands that everyone is “in love” with now. They used to be good. I’m in speech, and I have a love/hate attitude toward it. I enjoy hanging out with the people and I hate getting up at the crack of dawn to get on the bus, but once I get there we have a good time. I like to watch basketball, football, baseball, hockey, and many other sports. I prefer to be at the game than watching it on TV but I’ll take either. I enjoy hanging out with friends every minute of everyday. We usually end up at my house, Steak n Shake, or youth group. (Yes, youth group.) I’m a Christian and I’m proud of it. I’m not gonna hide my beliefs or change who I am to hang out with someone. Hate to break it to ya, people, but I’m not necessarily a “people-pleaser.” Yes, I like when people like me, or for people to be happy with me, but I wont change who I am to please someone. That’s stupid.

I’m the kinda person that sets huge goals. Like my goals used to involve being CEO of some huge architectural firm, but now I’ve given up those dreams. I just wanna graduate top of my class, and get a good job, and most importantly I wanna help people. Not just physically, but spiritually. I would really like to become a youth minister someday; because of the impact my youth group leader has on my life. She’s taught me to love who I am, and not be afraid to be insanely-crazy. She’s been there for me through everything and I wanna be able to help people the way that she’s helped me.

“In a nutshell, that’s me.”
