Johari Window

So, there's this thing called a "Johari Window." I don't remember where I found it but it's been on my facebook for a while and I think it's a really cool thing. Just follow this link and see for yourself. It takes about 2 minutes.

So I'm a copycat...

Well, Chris made a blog, then Jenny made a blog now I want a blog. I had a blog before but I guess I didn't really have a lot to say. Maybe I wanted to get it out but didn't really want people to read it. Who knows. Now, I have some stuff to say. Questionable, probably. Interesting, maybe. Insightful, well, we'll just have to see.

I love my roommate. We get along great (I think) and last night, we had a great discussion. We were both very honest about different things and it ended up that we were kind of dealing with a similar situation and I hadn't told anyone else before her. It's always good to know there are others out there dealing with a similar struggle and though the struggle may be similar, the feelings about it can be completely different.

I hate drama. It's so difficult and just makes life miserable. Always worrying about if this person is mad at you for something you said, wondering if this person likes you...drama is pointless. It takes me back to middle school when there were all the cliques of people and I felt like I didn't fit with any of them. They say hindsight is 20/20. Looking back, it's a good thing I wasn't "in a group." I wouldn't be who I am and frankly, I kinda like who I am. All the time? No way. But overall, besides taking things too personally and holding people at higher expectations than they can acheive, I don't think I would change too much.

Everyday of my life, I find at least 5 things that are humorous. (usually) I'll try to share some each time I post.

*I saw this guy carrying a purse. He was walking with another guy, though. Sketch.
*Brett Seay is now considered "butch." (not really, Brett. but your knuckles are ridiculous)
*Britnie Reid used to ride around the USC campus on a bike, with no brakes, and a trumpet on her back.
*Dr. Tony Beam is one of the funniest guys on earth. His son wanted to watch Bruce Almighty when it first came out and his initial thought was, "I've raised a liberal, non-believing, blasphemous kid." (he retracted that statement, later, after he saw the movie for himself and got convicted for "judging a book by it's cover")
*Apparently, I have a complex because I don't like to eat by myself or see other eating by themselves.
***I'm just like a magnet. Everyone is so attracted to me." -Britnie Reid***
