Hey Bloggers!!

         As one of my first English assignments of the year I have been asked to start a blog. And yeah it sounds like fun, until you start seeing the words drafts, rubrics and all that grading material. But somehow I’m actually looking forward to seeing how this is will turn out. In the end it sounds like it’s going to be a pretty cool project. Today I’m going to introduce myself. That’s supposed to be the easiest part but what can I say that will make “blog surfers” really want to read this? Well I’ll try my best…

         I’m a student at an American school in Venezuela. It’s my 11^th year here and even though there are ups and downs I really like living here. Yes, I know that’s weird since most people complain about things but, I think anywhere you go there are things to complain about so why point them out? That’s not going to change anything. That’s my view of complaints anyways. In my free time I like to watch TV series, most of them would probably be listed under the drama genre, they were all suggested by a really cool friend of mine. If I’m not watching a bunch of crazy series then I would probably be on Facebook talking to someone or just looking around. Another thing I like to do is listen to music. I don’t have a favorite genre here; the only one I probably don’t listen to very often is rock. I’m an extremely shy person and it takes a really long time for me to open up. But when I do I completely trust that person. Something that really annoys me is when people aren’t considerate. I don’t like it when people say or do things without thinking about how it may affect others. Not only with people but also with the planet, there’s no reason to have the lights turned on when there’s no one in the room even if you’ll “be right back.”

         Since its part of the assignment I’ll probably be updating this like twice a week, but I’m not sure yet. Most of the time I think I’ll be talking about what went on in one of the TV series I watched or maybe I might write about what I did during the day which is sometimes a little overwhelming. That’s just due to the fact that I’m currently in the JV girls’ volleyball team, I’m waiting to re-join ballet and I also have to go to this thing called school. I will also probably end up talking about any trips I make or any events I attend to (if I attend anything). I’ll try my best not to make this a boring blog but I can’t promise much. Oh and I hope to improve my writing, grammar and I’ll try to be as creative as possible even though I lack a little in that area. So how’s that for a self-introduction?
