Okay, I may not be smarter, but I feel really good that I've kept this blog up from February 2012 to September 2012. I don't think anything in my life has ever lasted this long. Except, of course, that terrible bout of allergies I had a few years back, but that didn't benefit me at all.
To celebrate this (not very special) occasion, I decided to mention the names of some other blogs I've found during my time spend in Blogspot.
This one is amazing:
iamsherlocked.blogspot.com
And I just discovered my mother's, so I thought I'd give her some recognition:
She really likes comments, so if you're fortunate enough to read it, be sure to leave one.
Look at me, advertising my own mother. She's not even paying me...
But to head back to the title of this installment: Switch. Maybe I should recap on where this name comes from while I have it. It is from the brilliant movie series "The Matrix." The first movie is so incredible that I've seen it at least 20 times (including every year on my birthday since it came out.) However, unfortunately, the next two movies weren't so good. I am really disappointed about how it ended. I won't give it away, but if you're in for a let down, rent it. I guarantee you'll be throwing your popcorn at the screen in a matter of five minutes.
Anyway, Switch has always been a very strong, beautiful female character (even if she may be a little butch), which is, of course, not at all like me. Switch isn't by any means my favorite character in the movie, or the most likeable person in the world, but perhaps that's what I need: something different, something that's changed but not too much. Or maybe when I chose it, I was trying to be ironic. I've been trying out a lot of things lately.
Like the new show "The Nanny." Let me tell you, that show is genius. I started a week ago and I'm already almost done with season 3. The jokes are hilarious and I love Fran and Mr. Sheffield together. Most of all, I just love Miss Fine, the way she speaks, acts, and walks, the way her hands move. She is just so confident, and she always has something funny to say. I will sit and watch that show for hours and not get bored. It has that effect on people.
To sum up this post (and this blog), I am very satisfied with where this is going and I can't wait to continue. My new name was giving me a fresh start. I thought that with the new year and all, it was time for me to make some changes, and hopefully this blog can help me with that.
But for now, I am still that awkward, quiet, easily distracted, odd, blonde girl in the corner, so you can stop holding your breath.
