I'm Tiffany. As a child, I aspired to do many things. Well, things that normal children did not usually do. I walked on all fours, feeling the Earth on my skin and smelling its' stains on my skin at bedtime. I would sit by a tree as I hunted down squirrels so I could have a lovely chat with them (yes, as you guessed it, in squirrel talk). I rode in my rusting wagon down the small incline of our door path and I smashed rocks with a hammer until it was time to eat dinner. As you can see here, my childhood was a little strange. However, I was not like that 24/7.
I enjoyed the world, animals, and playtime as much as any other child. I just enjoyed it in a very different way. I have always been unique by taking different approaches to certain ideas or jokes. My personality is, as you can say, quirky. It is not awkward (unless you find it to be) nor is it ultimately depressing. I like to make the worst things in life seem to be ultimately beautiful/humorous in every way. But let me tell you, when I get pissed off, the world is nothing but an annoying fly to me.
So, here is my quirky approach to a new type of "Freshman 101" blog. As a Freshman, I have experienced a few events that have made me start thinking heavily about the college experience. With quirks, I take the impossible, scary, and unknown aspects of college life and turn them into bubbly facts that make living on campus seem possible, exciting, and familiar. Quirks of a Collegeboundlady came about this July. I started with a number one quirk as a status on Facebook. Once people liked it and even commented on it, I realized I could possibly make a blog out of this. So, I made it a goal to create Quirks of a Collegeboundlady after the 10th quirk.
And yes, I do not use hyphens because I wanted to be quirky. See the irony?
Here is the first quirk if you are so very interested:
#1: Throwing random things away just so you feel like you are doing a decent job at packing.
Packing scares us.
Oh, who cares?! Just throw it all into a box.
I won't give advice on this subject at the moment, but I will do that in a couple of days once I am free. (I am a college-bound-lady after all). So, bear with me as I gradually shape this blog. I have created many, but I have never stuck with them because I got lazy. To be honest, it was more like I was a crappy-ass writer. I don't mean to brag, but I think I'm pretty good nowadays. Let me tell 'ya though, I've improved a lot.
Expect your first quirk response in a few days!
I Hope you have a safe and exciting time being college-bound-ladies and laddies (If you are not bound, then have a fun time anyway!).
Sincerely,
Tiffany G. Carwile
