Introduction

Hola, mi nombre es Gena (mind you I speak no spanish, an unfortunate truth... although my father may not agree... however I did just arrive back from Mexico).

Figured an introduction would serve as well as anything. Don't really know if friends, stalkers, business colleagues (of the unemployed??)... future business colleagues (that's it), or no one will be reading this. I only suppose someone will and you may want to get to know me, just as I'm trying to re-connect with my "writing style". (I like parentheses, quotations, and those little "...", in fact I'm a fan of all punctuation.) I attempt to write just as I think.

Why did I start blogging? Well I suppose, although amateur, this is not my first (thanks to Xanga, myspace, and facebook). I guess I like the idea of an online journal that's quasi private but not really (kinda risky or better yet "risqué"). I think best when I write so there's that benefit. Also it almost seems like something you could put on a resume... with all the importance placed on written skills (I'm a huge believer in communication, but an even bigger believer in the face to face, but I'd like to show I'm multi-talented... hope that works out for me). On the note of "resumé", don't judge me or my grammar... we were all young once and I plan on staying that way (aaaand I studied art, the running joke is that I'm very creative with the way I use my punctuation, but I guess that comment also makes me redundant). Why else? Well truly I wish I would have kept better track/ written documentation of my life. I'm a very visual person so I've got plenty of snapshots to recall from, but I don't think you can beat your own words. Oh! and mostly, it's really hilarious to read your own written spew like four years later. Come 2015 I'll be ROTFLing.
