If you blog anonymously, are you happy doing this? If you aren't anonymous do you wish you started out anonymously, so that you could be anonymous now?    Actually I do blog with my middle name, simply because 1. it's french 2. it was my great grandmother's middle name 3. I like it because it feels original and different.    

2. Describe an incident that shows your inner stubborn side: 
no particular incident comes to mind but I do have a habit of sticking to what I said, even if it's wrong. 3. What do you see when you really look at yourself in the mirror? 
Um I don't really know.  Most times I see someone who appears complete, but is really searching for something else. Deep I know.
4. What is your favorite summer cold drink?
Water and melted cold popsicles 
5. When you take time for yourself, what do you do? 
Lots of things read, do puzzles, take pictures etc.
6. Is there something you still want to accomplish in your life? 
Lotsa, lotsa things
7. When you attended school, were you the class clown, the overachiever, the shy person, or always ditching?  
Honestly I don't remember, I think I was more just there. Of course I didn't start homeschool until half way through 2nd grade.
8. If you close your eyes and want to visualize a very poignant moment in your life, what would you see?     
My mind is rather addled right now from the daylight savings time so I have absolutely no clue9. Is it easy for you to share your true self in your blog, or are you more comfortable writing posts about other people and events? 
I'm okay with sharing my faults and others mistakes here. I just have to remind myslef this blog is a documentary for me...not anyone else. I choose to let others view it simply because others see things from another perspective and that's always helpful in my journey
10. If you had the choice to sit down and read a book, or talk on the phone, which would you choose and why?  
Haha hard choice... depends on the book or person I'm talking to.  I enjoy having conversations with people I don't get to see often, but I do love getting lost in a good book!

 So it's been quiet here, mainly 'cause I am attempting to forget 10 years worth of English grammar for the sake of two years of Spanish. Fun I know, envy me if you wish (not). Besides that I've been preparing for Confirmation, which is this Sunday btw. In the beginning.. *pause for dramatic effect* there was..... light!, okay joking, there was light, but I'm not going back that far. At the start of my confirmation prep I was reluctant to have anything to do with anyone. Looking back over the months I realize that if I hadn't gone for confirmation I wouldn't have met the amazing friends and people I now know.
Other decisions still loom in my future. I feel the pressure to make a career choice, but if and when I do I want it to be mine and not something I just do to appease someone. Oddly enough I think the medical profession is appealing, especially the doctorate part of it. even thought I hate science of any kind with a passion.  So much more I have to say that I can't fit into one little box. Guess I'll have to update more often.
Sweet dreams,
Claretta
