Day 1 - Introduce Yourself

Well I'm Raeann and I think this part of the challenge is a bit pointless since the only people who read this blog know me better than anyone else.

But hey, I was born on July 17th 1991 and have lived in Somerset all my life. I plan on staying here for most of the rest of it, because I like small towns and dislike traffic.

I'm awkward almost all of the time. I worry that I might of said something wrong after most conversations and have to ask Cody to make sure I didn't say something stupid. I do like socializing, but really only with certain people so that helps cut down on the awkward.

The only thing I miss from high school is talking to a few people. In no way do I miss getting up at 5 in the morning, sitting at a desk forever or writing a portfolio. Except I also miss Raptor, just minus all the bitching that happened there.

I'm fat and am working on that slowly. I've discovered it's much harder to lose weight when your happy and in a relationship. When I was single it was so much easier to lose weight, but this could also be because my house never has food and Codys is full of food. Plus his dad is the best cook in the world. Anyways, at times I don't like how I look, but sometimes I do and other times I just don't care because Cody makes me feel like I'm the loveliest person ever. I still am aware that I need to lose weight, but it doesn't feel like it's the most important thing now.

On that note, I have the nicest and most patient boyfriend ever. Seriously. We may not have money to go out all the time, but we've found tons of other ways to have fun. I would much rather feed ducks and go walking than sit in a chair for an hour and a half anyways. Not that I don't love movies, I do and our friendship basically revolved around movies. I don't think I'm too young to "settle down" and I definitely don't want to go out and experiment, I'm happy with him. I'm just glad I've found someone who can be around me all day and still want to see me the next day. Thanks for being awesome, Cody.

I would love to be a professional photographer or really have any sort of job that involves taking pictures, but I highly doubt that will happen. I'm poor and the really good cameras are $600 or more, plus the photography field is highly competitive. I hope at least something comes out of it since I've been practicing for about 5 years. I am going to look into how you become a newspaper photographer and maybe see if one of the local newspapers intern or something.

I recently decided what kind of tattoo I want and where. It's a couples tattoo, so I hope Cody will still be on board for this when we decide to get it.

Also, I really like Harry Potter and The White Stripes!
