about me
Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote
- "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education like, such as South Africa, and, the Iraq, everywhere like such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children." --Caitlin Upton, Miss South Carolina Teen 2007

Who do you idolize?
Rob is very understanding about my crushes. He’s even quick to point out when he thinks I have a crush on someone. It goes both ways, I guess. I always like to figure out which girls he thinks are attractive. Recently, he told me I had a crush on a friend of mine that I a met a couple of years ago. I was a little surprised at first because I didn’t think I had a crush on him. His reasoning was that I spoke about this friend of mine with a lot of enthusiasm. The more I think about it though, the more I think he’s wrong. It’s not that this particular guy isn’t attractive. It’s that my attraction to him is different than an ordinary crush.
When I was trying to think of a way to explain this to Rob, the best analogy I could come up with was that this guy was a celebrity and that I was his number one fan. It’s slightly less superficial than that since I actually know him, but it’s the same kind of feeling I guess. I get stupid around him, not in the giggly I-have-a-crush-on-you sorta way, but more in the Oh-my-God-I-can’t-believe-you’re-talking-to-ME kinda way, if that makes any sense at all. Imagine meeting your idol or a person for whom you have a lot of respect. Again, it’s a little different since I know him. Unlike a person who admires a celebrity idol from afar, I find myself seeking my friend’s approval.
So I guess the short answer is, no, I don’t have a crush on this guy. I can’t even say I know him well enough to think of him as a regular person. And since I act so star-struck and silly around him, there’s little chance of getting to know him as a real person anytime soon. That’s not to say it’s not possible. I’ve had one other friend who has been upgraded (or downgraded?) from idol to crush. So, it could happen.

about this blog
It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
