let's see how this goes

i've been thinking about starting a blog for awhile now. there are a couple of blogs that i read. they make me want to write. but i never thought i had enough to say. it is getting closer to summer, which means my life is going to get busier and, hopefully, more exciting.

There are somethings that i should share since this is our first time together:

1. you have probably noticed that i am writing with no capitalization. one of the blogs i read does this. i am going to steal the idea and use it. it makes survival easier... and i like it A LOT. and it also helps with emphasizing things.
2. i really like to use the ellipsis. if you don't know what they are, it is the three periods (...) get used to seeing them...
3. the name of my blog is "stories of survival: the ramblings of a city girl living in small town." i grew up in a city of 55,000, went to college in a city of 90,000, spent 4 months in "the cities" (the minneapolis/st.paul area for those who aren't from the midwest). now, i live and work in a small town of 200 people. i'll let you use your brain cells to make the rest of that connection. here is a picture of it:

I think that is enough for tonight. there will be more introductions and getting to know eachother in the days to come.
