A couple of days ago I found myself wondering what I should do with myself since I'm currently not going to school. See, I would be going to school, but the whole financial thing got in the way and left me empty and unsure of myself. Not that I've ever really been sure of myself in the first place. But here I am, not too far from where I began, wondering if I'll ever go much further.

But since this is going to be my first post, this should be a general introduction to me, who I am, and what I'm about. Except, I'm not sure about that. If you look on your right side of the screen, you'll see that I put a little blurb about how this blog is supposed to be right-brain versus left-brain, and that's where we encounter a problem. There's just too much going on at once.

For those who aren't already aware, there is this theory that the "right-brain" is your creative side, while the "left-brain" is your logical side. Most people are one or the other, maybe a majority of one and some of the other. But me, I'm nearly split down the middle. I went through high school doing math faster in my head than with my calculator while still being able to draw a portrait. I'm not saying I'm this wonderful artist, but I would give it a fair chance to say I've got a little bit of talent. But anyway, these two halves of my brain are in a constant collision, all of the time. I've never really learned how to suppress either side so that one side can become dominant, so it just does what brains do and it works. Kind of like the CPU on a computer. Except a dual-core. And with feelings, etc. You get the idea.

About me. I'm actually been learned in the technological field, mostly in electronics. When I was younger, say around 11 or 12, I decided that the best way to make a life for myself was to pick a trade I was relatively good at and just go for it, and that's how I ended up where I am today. If it wasn't for that move, I'm fairly certain I would be a major in creative writing in some local community college. Which is fine, don't get me wrong, but it's difficult to make a living off of liberal and fine arts. I've actually been writing since I was a little girl, but I'll save the cute little memoirs for a later post.

What I mean to get at is that I'm an artistic nerd with a love for tech who's just trying to find her place in the world, one step at a time, who's hoping that maybe, just maybe, someone out there in the big world would like to hop along for the ride.
