Day 01 - Introduce yourself, in great detail

Introduce myself in great detail.
Well to start, my name is Hannah and I was born April 13th, 1987.
I was raised in a small agricultural town in Michigan called Marlette. I spent the first 19years of my life living in this town. With all its small minded residents that only think of the simple things in life. Farming, having enough education to get by, alcohol, and rarely did you see Class A drugs, but they came around.

I despised growing up here, but when I look back, I’m glad I grew up in a small town environment. It didn’t hold me back from the pleasure of doing things I chose to do like it had to so many others I know. But the only difference between me and them is the choices we made. But really, I had your standard childhood/teenage years. Binge drinking with friends on the weekend, going to the cinema, meeting boys (which i never had the pleasure of dating anyone seriously until I was 18), and things of that nature.

I was always indecisive on where I wanted to go with life and what I wanted to do. Though, everyone goes through this for the most part. I liked designing and being creative, and still have a love for photography. But I had to be real about it and realize this was more of a hobby rather than something I really wanted to pursue. One fact of life really, do NOT listen to your high school counselors.

My love life was always a downward spiral of inevitable heartbreak. Living in such a small town you have very limited options. Though, the two boys that I have fallen in love with were from my small town area. All the boys that lived far away, it always fell through and I was always left with nothing, whether it was my decision or not. Typically not mine. But, the boy I’m with currently, we’ve been together 5years now. And I’m really just going with the flow and always have been. Though, I feel like we’re good for each other, another part of me just thinks i’m settling and there could be someone else out there for me even more perfect…. but thats another story entirely.

I’ve always wanted to get away. So I moved from a small town to a somewhat bigger city when I was 19 with my Dad. I lived with him for about a year attending Baker College in Flint. (Such a shit idea should of went straight to University.) But knew I had more to offer and gain from attending a university. I applied to both Michigan State University and Eastern Michigan University and being accepted to both, I decided on the smaller of the two, Eastern Michigan. Which I then moved down to Ypsilanti, and here I still reside, finishing up my Bachelors in Psychology with a specialization in Marriage and Family, as well as Minoring in Sociology along the same pathway of Marriage and Family. I hope to be a Marriage and Family Therapist once my schooling is finished. I do want to attend Graduate School at some point, but I will need a two year hiatus I think, but we’ll see…

Friends are always coming and going. With moving I lost a lot of the friends I grew up with, but gained a lot of new ones along the way. My closest friends just so happen to all live in different countries, different states, or hours away. But because I’m so accustomed to this distance, as well as they are, we haven’t drifted apart and see each other as often as possible with vacations. I love it, having a free place for lodging, seeing a new place, and being able to spend time with my friend. So many great traveling stories I must say. I have traveled to England on 3 separate occasions and have another trip in the works for May/June 2011, will be fantastic. I also have an upcoming trip to Montreal in 2 days, which will be amazing to see such an urban Canadian city, as well as finally visit my friend Jayme that lives there. She’s visited so many times, so finally I get to see her and how her life style is.


But yeah I”m not sure what else to say about myself. I’m indecisive still. But if I have a goal, I will fucking accomplish it, no matter what. So I suppose you could say I’m a very driven individual depending on the goal at hand. I can become unmotivated very easily though, but thats usually pertaining to work I have no desire to do. I’m not as emotional as your typical girl and can get over things quite quickly, but that could just be my skill in memory suppression, who knows.

I guess, that is a suitable introduction.
