About the Blogger

So I'm Abbie, which you may have grasped from the last post, and you already know I'm going to college and that I like to write.  I'm sure though, since you'll be hearing from me, you want to know what to expect to hear.  So here's what I hope will be a good summary of me and the blog.

About Me:

• I'll be attending SCAD starting next month, see previous for acronym explanation.  So yes, I'm a wacky art student, but maybe not as wacky as some.  As of now, I'm planning to study animation, but people change their majors and I could also see myself studying visual effects.
• I'm not huge into the Japanese anime scene (many art students are), so you won't have to worry about that stuff appearing all over my blog.  But I am into American animation, particularly superhero or action animated shows and animated box-office movies.
• I like all types of animals, except insects and arachnids, and know a lot of scientific stuff about all kinds of topics (particularly animals).  My non-internet friends call me a walking encyclopedia (really, if you ever meet them you can ask, they'll confirm it) because I know so much and have a tendency to spout scientific information without noticing.
• I love horses in particular, and if everything works out I might be on the equestrian team at SCAD.  I also read, write (duh), make art (duh), exercise, listen to awesome music and daydream.  I think daydreaming and other forms of zoning out come with artistic people as a general rule.
• I'm a Christian, but I realize not everyone is, and this isn't a Christianity-focused blog, so don't worry about it.  However you can be assured that I won't use strong language and that I'll keep this blog mostly PG, I'd like my readers to do the same.

About the Blog:

• This is a blog about me and my college experiences at an art college, which in certain aspects will be different than other people and other types of colleges.
• Once school starts I plan on doing weekly updates, because this blog was conceived under the assumption that my family members can look here to keep track of me and my health and safety.
• If the weekly updates don't work or are too long, I'll break them up differently.  They should include pictures of my life, my art, my friends, my interests and anything else I choose to include.
• I plan to have a monthly poll and if I get enough followers that people want a different poll more often, I can change it.  If you guys have other ideas for interacting with my readers, please voice them, I want to include you guys.

So that's what you should expect to expect.  I'll start my first weekly post next weekend since that's when I plan on doing weekly updates anyway.  That'll give you guys a good idea of what a weekly post will look like.
