“From there to here, from here to there, funny things are everywhere!” -Dr Seuss

So I've finally gotten a blog. I've not quite decided how to run one yet. The best I've got is my blog from my Junior year in high school where I was basically depressed all the time and needed to blow off some steam (What can I say... my close friend had just died.) This time around things will have more humor as I account the absurdities that happen to me or that I naively do. The world should have plenty of ammo to make me into a bumbling baboon as I'm living in Edinburgh, Scotland at the moment (I LOVE this place!).

I should probably warn you, my humor is weird and not many people get it. Occasionally when I'm attempting at humor, a person will think I'm complaining. I promise I'm not! I'm just trying to get a giggle to lighten the mood. Obviously I still need to work at the humor. I have my amazing parents to thank for my odd sense of humor. No, seriously. You should talk to them sometime. Strangers don't know what to do with them. It's awesome :)

So a few quick things about me in case you've happened upon this blog and don't have a clue who I am, but not enough info to where in case you do not, in fact, know me, you can't go all stalker and follow me on the streets:

1. The major part about me is I am a Christian, a follower of Christ, a Believer, been saved by Grace. My relationship with my Lord and Savior is the most important thing to me. Christ is always there for me. Even in the hardest times, He is there helping me stand back up.
2. I am studying for my masters in English Language at the University of Edinburgh. I love it so far.
3. I am an optimist.
4. I love penguins. Petting a penguin is on my bucket list. Here's a picture of some penguins I saw at the Edinburgh Zoo. The zoo let them out once a day to go on a little march around the area, but only if the penguins want to. Only 6 decided to join up that day, but it was awesome:

Are they not just the cutest things?!

5. I love Harry Potter. Books. Movies (though not as good as books). Theme Park. All of it. I have recently gotten into Pottermore. I was sorted into Hufflepuff. I am probably one of the few thrilled by this.

Luna is definately my favorite character in the series and one of my top ten favorite characters of all books I've read. My favorite of the series is Prisoner of Azkaban. I want a Hippogriff! I do own a Pygmy Puff, though! His name is Fred. Say hi to Fred!

I feel like Fred could give the penguins a run for their money on cutest thing ever.

That's enough about me for now. I'll try to update weekly about my adventures, but the posts could come in waves. Have a nice evening, Texas, and a nice night, Scotland!
