welcome

Over the past few days, I've thought over how to begin this blog. It seems overwhelming to think that I will be trying to communicate who I am through words. See I am "actions speak louder than words" type of girl. This blog therefore will probably contain more stories than concrete thoughts as I try to portray my thoughts on life.

So let me start on the right foot and tell a story: A born and raised small-town girl once headed off on an adventure to the "big city" of Langley to learn about all the world offered in the fall of 2005. Leaving behind her friends that she had known all her life, she moved in with a complete stranger to come to understand that living with someone in the a small space makes one know herself better than ever. Minus a brief stint in Ottawa in the Spring of 2008 at the Laurentian Leadership Center, this girl (turned woman somewhere in there) has continued to grow during her time in Langley...probably more than she ever expected to.

As you have probably guessed (hopefully) that is my story in a seriously condensed version. My story right now is full of intrigue because I am graduating in four months to go on to something that I am not entirely certain about. However, I've recently adopted the philosophy that not knowing makes it more exciting...or at least that is what I tell my parents. This is where I am at right now and I'm sure you will find, if you read more, that my life is more than a little chaotic, that sarcasm is my sense of humour and that I love people and their stories. 

Until next time...
