Who Am I?

Who am I?
This question takes me back, mostly to middle school, when during the first week of school we all had to go through the name game. You know, where everyone sits in a circle and takes turns saying their name and something interesting about themselves. Let me tell you this; I was horrible at that game. I was always the kid who would say so very proudly “My name is Katy!” but then, when reminded of course, I would have to say a random fact about me. I always drew a blank when this came. What is interesting about me? Of course afterwards, I would always find something better to say than what I did. Once I got nervous and said, with my face bright red, “Well, my favorite fruit is bananas.” Bananas? Who says that?! But now, I am thankful this is a blog, so I can think about my answers.
I am a relatively quiet person. When you first meet me, you may think I am awkward and shy, but once you get to know me you will find I am full of stupid jokes and laughter. I mean, I’m still awkward and shy, but at least not as much. I have a job that can sometimes be the worst part of my day, and other times can be one of my favorites. My coworkers are what keep me there, sometimes grumpy, usually smiling, and always entertaining. You can usually find me either at school, work, or with friends. If not, I am at home finding random things to do such as playing with my guitar, writing, or just laying in my backyard enjoying the weather.
My friends are the most important people in my life, they challenge me and accept me and are always here for me, just as I will always be there for them. I love to swim and play soccer, but I don’t like to watch sports, or really, much TV at all. I can’t lie though; it has become hard to resist watching an episode of How I Met Your Mother or New Girl instead of concentrating on my homework. My favorite colors are purple and sea foam green. I don’t have a favorite animal (I love them all), but I must say lately I have been favoring turtles. I always try my best to find the good things in life, and right now I am proud to say that there are so many that I am grateful for.
I am a lot of things. I live in a fairly well populated city, but am always wishing I could live in a small town. I am barefoot, almost always. I am my love for chocolate milk and noodles. Not at the same time of course, that would be disgusting. I am indecisive. I am different. I am me. (478)
