Rockin' the Suburbs

Here are the little snippets of things about me, to set the scene for you all:

Name: Maddie

Description: High school student, brown hair, pretty average looking, Caucasian, rockin' the suburbs of Detroit.

Things I Enjoy: Forensics (the speech activity, not dead bodies). I've done it for 6 years now, and it is what has defined me in high school. Orator4lyfe. I play the guitar, and in the past 2 years I've become involved in theatre. I've done props, costumed 2 shows, and acted. It is quite the enjoyable experience, and I'm not looking forward to Spelling Bee (the current show I'm costuming) to end.

I also like the desert, yoga, and Ke$ha. I don't believe in stereotypes. My peers would tell you I'm fun(ny), chill, and/or a bitch, depending on who you ask. Adults generally tell me I'm responsible. I'm not sure who's right.

Things I Do Not Enjoy: Strange foods, waking up early, people who take themselves too seriously, people who don't have any common courtesy, nagging, cold weather, chronic illnesses, that song by Train about getting married (I think it's called "Marry Me". If I could punch that song in the face, I would.), math, gas prices, and judgmental people.

College Prospects: Washington University in St. Louis is my dream.

Best Friend: Leah (check out her blog, I follow it, and it's a lot better than mine.) She will come up a lot because she means the world to me and we've been best friends for years. She probably knows me better than anyone else on the planet. So, needless to say, she's my bestest buddy.

Relationship Status: Taken. I don't know if I want to refer to him by his real name on here, or use a fake name or something. When the time comes, I'll decide. But because he is such a big part of my life and my writing at the moment, knowing that I am in a relationship is good information to have.

Parentals: I have two, both are still married, and we all live together. I also have a brother. He is younger than me but also in high school. Jolly good fun.

I think that's a good jumping off point. As more comes up along this journey, I will elaborate.

Thank you, kind strangers (and Leah) for taking the time to read my blog. It means a lot.
