My First Post (I hope I did this right.)

So, the blog that they're making us keep for Converse 101.

Any who, the name's Megan, hi how're you doin'. Right now it's night and I'm in Blackman wondering why I waited until nine o'clock the night before to set this sucker up. One word: procrastination. Oh, and the fact that I put my piano practice before the blog. Otherwise, I would have set it up at seven instead.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to knock blogging. I actually like asserting my opinions and what-not, but I do mind when I'm doing it for a school function. Take the tag line "A Pink Valkyrie's Thoughts". I actually sat here for a few moments wondering if my two professors would actually mind that I didn't call this "Megan's Blog" or whatever. I like to be creative and unique - and I love Converse's mascot - so I decided to combine the Valkyrie with the fact that I'm a Pink Panther. I'm hoping they don't mind, and if they do I'll change it.

My main point is, I don't like being restricted when I'm writing something, and no matter what anyone tells me about college, I still have to restrict my thoughts somewhat because I'm new at all this. I've yet to test my boundaries with the faculty and staff. Actually, I've yet to really get to know the faculty and staff well enough to feel comfortable with testing my boundaries with them. The reason I make this such a big deal is that I have a near phobia about crossing people in authority. People my age can kiss my derriere, but police officers, professors, CAs, anyone else I deem to be in authority, etc, etc, . . . . No. I'm serious, the first day or two of Orientation I had to stop myself from calling my CA Morgan "ma'am" all the time.

Well, enough about my idiosyncrasies about the blog, more about my eccentricities outside of it. I'm a freshman Converse student, specifically a Music Education major. I play the clarinet and am in the process of learning piano. I think I spent at least an hour playing tonight, but I forgot my watch and cell phone so I can't be sure. I'm a big fan of anime and manga, (By the way, never call it "Japanimation" around me. That terms seriously annoys the crimaday out of me.) and everything Transformers. I enjoy reading, writing, and drawing not to mention talking with anyone and everyone about anything.

You know, I think I might not mind having to blog after all.
