Continuing...

Blogging has always been something I've been considering. I've enjoyed putting out my thoughts and dreams for the world to see....although then it was Xanga and it was highschool...neverless, I think I'm going to give the blogging idea the old college try.

I haven't quite decided the proper delivery I'm aiming for, or the audience I'm seeking, but I'm convinced that will develop over time. For now, just a bit about me.

I'm a 20-something living on my own in the beautiful city of St. Louis. I'm a recent college grad. I have a career, not just a job, for which I'm incredibly thankful. I'm an engineer, a former sorority girl, and I live in a gorgeous historical neighborhood. All in all, I feel my life is pretty..average.

But according to Facebook, it couldn't be further from. I'm not engaged, or married. And that's ok! I don't have a child. I'm not unemployed. And I don't party 5 nights a week in Vegas or LA. But really, who wants to be average anyway?

Moving to a new city has brought about a range of emotions I never expected. I'm listening to Airplanes - B.O.B. ft. Hayley Williams.  The core of the lyrics strike what I'm feeling. The hours sitting alone in my apartment have made me think, and analysis, the friendships and relationships I've left by the roadside over the years. I believe that sometimes friendships come to a natural ending, but I can't help but wonder if I've left them prematurely.  My constant search to find myself, see the world, experience everything life has to offer, has made me neglect people I've left behind.

Ever wonder if the people you remember....if you come to their mind too?
