The Future



I’d like to start off by saying that I'm not really writing all these entries today. I've been working on a blog for a while, but hadn't actually published it yet. After today, all entries will be current. Also, the picture is my school picture, and everyone looked that weird. Uniforms aren't know to be terribly flattering. 

    Now that that’s been covered, I’ll move on to the topic of the day (drumroll, please): The Future! Not the future in a sci-fi sense (though that would be utterly bomb) but my future, the goals I have. Despite what you might think from my blatant confidence on this blog, I’m actually a pretty shy and serious person. I’m not exactly popular, as you may have guessed, but I don’t let it bug me. Oh, whatever, I’ll just say it, I’m a total and complete nerd. And guess what? I’m PROUD of it! I actually enjoy being a nerd.

    Now that I’ve gone on my totally off-topic rant of the day, I’ll come back to earth (Or at least the same solar system). The future, what can I say? I’d just like to put out that I know my goals. Unlike a lot of my friends (and most people my age), I know the basic outline for what I want to do in life. Here Goes...

    Okay, my short term goals include doing very well in school, getting into college, and finishing my book (not in this order). Right now, I’m doing a decent job in all three areas, even though I missed out on getting into Algebra II/Trig Honors next year (see my angry math rant). I think I’ve finally found the cure for writer’s block (hint: it involves my playlist) and I got a 4.57 GPA during the first semester of high school. This is important to me because I’d really like to get into a very competitive school (Harvard is my current first choice).

    My long term goals are finishing the Everwind series, starting other books (I have a romantic/young adult novel called Milk and a realistic fiction about a girl from a small town in the very beginning stages right now), becoming a pediatrician, getting married, and settling down to have a family. I’m thinking that I’d like to be a stay-at-home mom, but I’ll decide when it comes to that. I guess it’s good to know what I want to do, but I’m just barely starting to be able to work towards them. Anyway, “Parting is such sweet sorrow, and so I bid farewell, until tonight becomes the morrow” (I strongly dislike the source of this quote, by the way). See you later, I’m off to go write. Wall, out.

Life as I See it



Hola gente! This is my first ever (real) blog entry, so I’m not entirely sure how it works. It’s supposed to be an online diary of some sort, right? I don’t care if the answer is no, I’m using it that way. Starting...NOW!

    Hmm, I don’t know where to start. Give me a minute...Aha!!! I’ll start by telling you that this will be like no blog you’ve ever read before (unless I’m just full of myself and I’m a pretty boring person). I may be a teen girl, but trust me, this won’t read like a teen girl’s diary. 

    Well, I already did a short intro, but how bout I go into more detail here? No? Well, I will anyway, because I’m in charge. It’s my blog!!! Let’s start with some things you really, really need to know. First off, I have a “interesting” sense of humor. Most people don’t get it. It’s a bit subtle, with a lot of sarcasm thrown in for the heck of it. For some bizarre reason completely beyond even my intellectual powers, sarcasm doesn’t translate well into writing. Here’s a rule of thumb: If what I’m saying makes any sense at all when applied to most people, I’m being serious. If it does, I'm being sarcastic. Capice? I know I’m not that hilarious, but get this: I DON”T CARE! Well, I really should get back to babysitting or writing my daily words for EC:NW, so Tata for now! Buh-bye, See you later!

The Lowdown on me



Besides my great sense of humor and the amazing amount of practicality I show, even in the dreariest of situations (see picture), I have other interesting traits you might want to know about. Okay, here goes:
         My name is Julia and I'm a teenage nerd. I am an awesomely odd girl who loves to read and write.  I'm working on my first book,“Everwind Chronicles: Night Whisperer” of which I have written 233 pages (applause). My favorite food is steak. As for music, let's just say I don't like kiisFM. Mi familia consists of three brothers and a cute little sister. I am also the most spectacularly coolriffic person that you will ever meet. That pretty much sums it up.                                                                                                                                   Now that you've read that, I have you trapped with my extra special mind control powers. Muhhahaha! (evil laugh) I now command you to love the rest of the blog- no matter how weird you think it is! Have fun, mind slaves!
*Disclaimer- Julia must legally say that she are not entirely sure if she is human or alien. Any brain sucking or inability to further relate with the rest of your species is your fault for visiting Julia's blog. Julia has no liability. BYE!!!  (Those pesky lawyers)
