1: hello, nice to meet you
Jul. 9th, 2011 03:05 pmFirst posts are always awkward. It's like meeting someone new. You don't know anything about them and you have no idea if you should be yourself or do that thing you do when you have a question and you're too resistant to ask the Sales Associate standing there, looking at you struggle.
I'll do the latter.
My name is Everet. Of course, it's not my real name. I don't know why I'm being anonymous even though on my profile I have basically given most people the means to find me if they have the spare time to play detective (read my entries, go to UBC, stalk a random 19 + Chinese girl who rides a bike along the river and has a pet fish named after a food). Did that sound like one of those randomly misplaced ads for "Sexy Singles"? I am single, in case you were wondering.
If you did decide to play Nancy Drew, you would know I have a family! 2 parents and 2 younger sisters, to be exact. Like all siblings, they drive me crazy especially the middle one, Chelle, who is a Gemini and boy, does she ever act like one. The other, Ally, is ten years younger than me and I sincerely feel sorry for her. Her two older sisters are both too old to play house or dolls with her and she's always bored and constantly disappointed because no one plays with her. I try my best but like any human being, I'm faulty.
It's summer but it doesn't feel like it. I mean, it just rained all morning yesterday, or was it two days ago? Point is, it rains in the summer and I can wear jeans and still feel comfortable enough. And don't get me started on Vancouver's half-ass weather. It's as if it decides to wake up like a cranky old mother, raging grey and rain and then by afternoon, it gets tired from being difficult and instead, shines hot wind onto the land. I say, make up your mind and save me from carrying a raincoat in the sunny afternoon when I only needed it in the morning.
I think I covered most things people hear about when first meeting a new person. You hear about their name, where they study, what their job is (I work as a Sales Associate, duh), their family and of course, don't forget, the weather!
