applespice: it is a sparkly fairy ([teaching] i eat children)
Last year I didn't really know how I felt about [livejournal.com profile] therealljidol - I ended up quitting a few weeks in, partly because of time restraints and partly because it didn't really fit my expectations. Despite all that, I think I'm going to try it again this year. I know better now what to expect, and I hope I can accept it all at face value and enjoy writing for some new prompts! I may not make it all the way, but I hate to let things go without even giving them a shot.

I'll start by saying that I've been on Livejournal for a long-ass time - almost a decade (how has this happened?). I have a lot of experience writing introductory posts. Unfortunately, looking back over them, I have to say that they're all pretty run-of-the-mill. Most of them even say the exact same things. Do you really care about my childhood? Honestly. I am wild and reckless and in my mid-twenties (well, I'm in my mid-twenties, anyway). Let's stay in the now.

So here's the now:

  • I am twenty-four years old.
  • I am a high school English teacher. It is often the bane of my existence, but I can't deny that it's been the source of some of my greatest joys.
  • I've married my complete and utter geekitude to a love of fashion and pop culture, becoming marginally socially acceptable in my ripe old age. I love both worlds unapologetically.
  • Unfortunately, I am still just as introverted and awkward as ever. Two steps forward, one step back. So it goes, so it goes.
  • Through use of my fledgling wiles, I managed to trap a pretty awesome guy into a relationship with me. He turned out to be a fellow undercover geekbot, which is probably why he puts up with my various idiosyncrasies. We have been together for a year and a half now.
  • I am intelligent, good-humored, and compassionate. I am also vain, weird, and quick-tempered. Fair's fair.


I think those are basically the salient points. I wish I could say that I am some kind of fabulous jet-setter with a successful career and cash to burn, but tragically I'm just another dippy kid finding her place in the world.
