So I'm in this hybrid class, see...

... and for this week's assignment, I'm supposed to come up with five questions for myself. And answer them, I'm assuming. Wouldn't make sense to ask five questions and just leave them sitting there, unanswered.

Huh.

Been a long week, can you tell?

So here goes:

1. Why did you choose to major in Communications?
- Funny you should ask. Originally I was debating between education and communication, and when it came time to register for classes as a freshman, I decided to go with education. Long story short, I didn't particularly enjoy my first education class, so I switched the next semester to comm. It's more broad, and there's lots I want to do. Plus my mom was a DJ for a Christian radio station before I was born, and I always thought that was cool. When I was little, I was always calling and winning prizes on-air, mostly because I loved hearing myself on the radio. Self-absorbed? I was like, EIGHT... (so yes)

2. Where are you right now?
- Without being too specific? Best place on earth. Home.

3. What makes it the best place on earth?
- #1. I'M here. (kidding)
#2. You can actually see the stars at night. My first night back in Dallas, and for at least a week after that, I would go outside hoping to stargaze, but I couldn't find a single star. Even on the clearest nights. It was highly disappointing.
#3. We have a few acres, and it's mostly wooded, so from the road you really can't see our house... I like the privacy, it's a nice relief from living around a bazillion college students (no offense)
#4. Our town has less than 2,000 people... you can't go into town (ha) without running into at least two or three people you know.

4. Have you ever ridden an elephant?
- Why yes I have, how strange that you would know that.

5. What is your favorite book and why?
- As far as fiction, it would have to be a tie between Flabbergasted and A Delirious Summer, both written by Ray Blackston. I love the style they're written in, very conversational. And hilarious. Unfortunately I loaned out the second one, and lost the first, so one of these days I'll have to hit up amazon.com and find 'em for a few bucks.
- As far as non-fiction, I can't remember the last non-fiction book I read past the second chapter. I just lose interest, I guess. Oh, wait, there was...........nope, nevermind. Didn't finish that one either.
