An Introduction

I'm Bridget and I'll just start out by saying that my favorite pastimes are painting the town red, capturing birds, and eating human flesh. No, I'm totally kidding. I just couldn't think of an interesting way to start and I figured that you people would be sick of reading the generic "I'm ______ and I was born in Madison, Wisconsin, blah blah blah blah."

Well now that I have you're attention, I'll just start out by saying I'm Bridget and I was born in Madison, Wisconsin. I have lived in Wisconsin all of my life. My childhood was nothing special, quite boring actually. I moved to McFarland from Sun Prairie in 7th grade and that's when I suffered through those awkward middle school years. It wasn't until high school where I finally started realizing my interests and the kind of person I wanted to be.

So here I am. I enjoy many things including: music, theater, art, movies, Hi-C from McDonald's, and fleece blankets. I am the happiest during the sixth, seventh, and eighth month of the year. It's not just because of the no school thing, I think it has more to do with the sun and the vitamin D. I have self diagnosed myself with OCD, ADD, and acid reflex disease. I consider myself a perfectionist, but at the same time a procrastinator. I like to be involved in a lot of activities, so as a result I have terrible time management skills.

The one thing that I'm most passionate about would probably have to be musical theater. The whole thought of pretending to be someone else and bursting into song and dance randomly is pure magic to me. It's like Halloween, but less scary and more fun (also less candy). I believe that music is such a powerful form of expression, and that is why I am much more attracted to musicals rather than just dramatic plays or movies.
I saw three Broadway shows this summer and I was completely amazed and in love the entire time.

I'm super excited to go to college next year! I plan on either attending Indiana University or Viterbo University. I hope to pursue my passion of musical theater whether it is onstage or backstage. Contrary to high schoolers popular belief, college is not all fun and games. I'm taking AP Comp to help me prepare for college courses. I'm not off to a very good start considering the date of this blog post, but I'm going to make it my goal to get all of my other work in on time and break my procrastination habit.
