It begins

Greetings friends. It has been a long time since I last posted something online and for that I apologize. I can't promise that I will update this everyday but I will try my hardest. I also can't promise that my blog entries will be mind-blowingly interesting and life changing. I'm a simple writer. Don't expect any crazy Shakespeare material here.

I admire good writing and I am inspired by bloggers who write about the truth. I do not want to post any entries that will distort your perception of who I am. It is easy to photoshop everything and hide behind a pretentious picture of yourself. We want to be perceived as someone who meets today's standards, but the truth is that people can tell when you are being "fake". And we all know that being "fake" is deceitful and downright boring. Imperfections are interesting and should be praised.

"Vanitybook", (ie: facebook) as I like to call it, pretty much sums up what I'm talking about. It's a tool that we all use to make everyone think that our lives are going as planned.

"Welcome to Facebook, the place where relationships are perfect, liars believe their own bullshit & the world shows off they are living a great life".

I don't want to fall into this trap so I am going to give you a head start. Here are a few things that you will need to know about me before reading this blog.

I am gay.

I'm sure most of you already knew that, but for those who didn't... SURPRISE :)

I have a secret obsession with Seinfeld.

Why? Cause Jews have a great sense of humour. Seriously! I love Yinglish and their schmancy comedy.

I am completely and utterly dependent on my parents.

I think I'm going to stay in school for the rest of my life! Could my underachieving generation be the reason why our parents have to keep putting delays on their retirement plans? Hmmmmm. More on that in another blog.

I'm not religious but...

I sometimes ask favors from the man upstairs around exam time.

I'm not a Ginger.

I have pictures to prove it! It's actually brown with a couple white hairs. Stupid nursing and all the stress that comes with it. Grrrrr.

I am currently in a relationship.

Yes, the rumors are true. I am dating a boy. His name is Hoang (he's Vietnamese) and we've been together for almost a year! Wow, I can't believe it's been that long. Where are the pictures, you ask? I will post some soon. Promise.

I can't stand passive aggression.

We are what we hate, I guess. I'm trying!

Everyone thinks I'm in Nursing for the money.

Partly true, but I really do care about people. Honestly!
