My life consists of a series of contradictions...
My mother was raised as an Orthodox Jew, and my father was raised as a hardcore Catholic.
Apparently two very religious spouses make three very unreligious children.
My sister loved school so much that she now teaches at OSU, and my brother loathed school so much that he didn't make it through his first year at a university.
The only semi-recent photo I have of all three of us is one in which he is appearing to be academic.
All I really wanted from the academic world was an opportunity to ditch the U.S.
I refuse to learn a foreign language.
Born and raised in Ohio, my favorite type of environment has always been one surrounded with open-minded, intelligent, free-thinking people.
I willingly chose to go to school in Georgia.
I am working so hard at UGA that I have taken on another major.
I would drop out of school and be a traveling musician faster than it will take you to read this blog post.
I hate talking about myself.
I want to be famous.
I walk everywhere to keep my body healthy.
I eat an average of five meals a day (each almost always followed by something chocolate).
I am on UGA's executive board for Relay For Life.
Being around people who are dying makes me extremely uncomfortable.
By day, I am carefree and fearless - ready to take on the world and live on the edge.
I have nightmares almost every night.
Having a lot to do stresses me out.
I hate sitting still.
I hate blogs.
This is the second class I have decided to take (so far) that involves a blog.
Drew,
ReplyDeleteKudos on having the courage to be the first to post. I really enjoyed reading your autobiography. You have a very nice rhythm to your writing -- I hope you can maintain that rhythm in your journalistic pieces.
You say you don't like blogging? That's unfortunate, because you're a natural. Maybe by the end of the semester you'll be a fan.
