My Capricious&Arbitrary Notions

My attempt as a blogging newcomer to share my daily adventitious thoughts and fortuitous experiences with the world. I've come to the realization that I have too many aspirations and ideas for this blog to restrict it to any one subject. Instead, it is a glimpse into the life of an eccentric, steadfast, & ardent human, simply trying to make it in the world.

I completed the Myers-Briggs personality test yesterday for a class assignment. Initially I thought that it was pointless, and honestly, I wasn't intrigued one bit by it. After completing it and further reviewing its descriptions, I was delightfully surprised at the amount of knowledge I gained from thoroughly completing this assignment. It truly makes you understand and appreciate your personal characteristics.

If you’ve never heard of Wild Cub then you must check them out! I had the pleasure of meeting a few of them in Nashville after they opened for Ellie Goulding, and they're an awesome group of guys with an awesome sound!

My sweet grandmother painted this Lion for me to enter in the UNA PRSSA chapter' silent auction which will take place at the end of September. All proceeds will go to our chapter, as well as our trip to Philadelphia for the national PRSSA conference in October.

For my first blog, I've decided to share one of my favorite quotes, by one of my most inspirational icons, Winston Churchill. Almost every day we are presented with struggles that question our efforts to remain strongwilled and to strive for excellence. I enjoy this quote so much, because I feel as if in one sentence it places the good and the bad into perspective for me.
