Meet Megan

If you really knew Megan, you would know that she always talks in third person. You would know that she has crazy-awesome-beautiful red hair and pale skins that rivals a glow-in-the-dark color. She’s originally from Boston, Massachusetts (GO BRUINS!) but’s that’s not her only place of residence. Her dad was in the Navy for over twenty-five years, this meant she moved around a lot but also never stayed for long. Because her dad was a Master Chief Petty Officer, (he was a badass) she got to travel around a lot and that cultivated her adventurous side and love of new experiences. Her mom was an English teacher and she passed on her bibliophile-ness (that’s why she knows words like bibliophile). Because of this she randomly throws out quotes from novels, much to the chagrin of those around her. In third grade she watched Alice in Wonderland and that was pretty much life-changing and has been completely obsessed ever since. She wants nothing more than to find a white rabbit with a waistcoat. (Don’t laugh Harry Potter nerds! I’m sure you stayed up on your 13^th birthday waiting for your letter.) She started drawing the characters from the movie and realized that she kind of liked drawing, and that’s how her fascination with art started, now she stalks/lives in art museums. She has a sister that is a year older than her, but they are complete opposites, aren’t all sisters? In high school she became a vegetarian and did the whole indie-hipster thing for a while. Some things have worn off, but others have stayed. For example, she does shower regularly. Now she attends the University of Minnesota because it was somewhere she’s never been and very far away from pretty much everything else. She’s deadly with a nerf gun, and often attacks unsuspecting travellers done her hallway. She has a crop of crazy friends that all very important because they are the few people that understand her incoherent ramblings or spastic outburst. Her favorite place in the world is the Cape Cod beach. Bored yet? Good.

That was a nice little overview, I kind of feel like Holden from Cather in the Rye after that. I don’t have anything profound to say about my life thus far, I’m kind of just along for the ride. I would lie to think that I’m not a scripted character in a grand narrative, but this class constantly changes my opinion of just about everything, but I still have hope that I’m not a culture-bot. Anyways, I sit in the back left corner facing the board in Cultural Studies, come say hi.
