first day of whatever i'll make of this.

hello there.

one thing that you will find out about me is that i LOATH first days. (ex: work & school; you know no one, you become the prey and all anyone can ask you is if you are enjoying yourself when all you want to tell them is to stop asking. also, the awkwardness is palpable.)

however, i am also the type of person that enjoys blank notebooks, new school supplies, and apparantly blank blogs. i find it's an opportunity to start something fresh and a chance to reinvent yourself. toss out the person you were five minutes ago, slip on a new name tag, and roll. so, in the words of one or more celebrities, authors, and strangers "let's do this shit."

huh. so this is what day one looks like.

brief profile on my day:

- slept in.

- ate this fantastic cold pizza from an unknown hole in the wall (not literally ratville. promise.)

- watched the entire sweeney todd musical on youtube which happen to include Neil Patrick Harris himself (i'm an enormous How I Met Your Mother fan).

- drank some oh jay, simpson (not really).

- blowed my nose repeatedly (that's what she said. yes. office fan, too.)

- presently listening to Peter, Bjorn & John's new album Living Thing to prepare myself for their concert at Le National on April 27th.

and that's more or less it. i plan on being more active in the coming days. the only reason i have become a hermit and confided myself to my matress and laptop Kanye (you guessed it.) is that i have a cold and i have to try and shake it off as soon as possible. bed rest and depressing musicals are my perscription.

i also started a blog because i feel like i will find myself at a crossroad really soon (or so i hope so) as well as i have countdowns starting up. time for a change/upgrade/mistake as they say. so i started this. this secret will be just between you and me, alright? let's keep mom & dad & everyone else in the dark for now.

i just keep on getting this visual about the entire world sleeping as i write this. i feel like nothing will really change from creating this other than i can have personal documentation of my train of thought which is hard enough to follow anyway. but, i'll carry on.

goodnight sleeping world population & and not-so-empty blog.

hello, new habit.

yours most truly & sincerely,

mtb.
