To anyone who may ever find themselves reading this,
My name is Tabitha Lynn Clugston-Koblasz, though most just call me "Tabby." Being as this is my first ever blog post, it will be directed for the sole purpose of telling those of you who wish to know, a little about myself. Please bear with me, as said, this is my first post, and while I have recently gained quite a "healthy sense of self" (thank you Professor Randy Pausch for this lovely phrase), as well as a love for speech, I do not enjoy, nor am I particularly good at, having to tell people about myself. Note: any names have been changed. I may be opening my life to the world, but it’s still my life, and like any normal human being, I like my privacy, as do they.
I suppose the easiest way to start this would be to answer the two most basic questions about self:
Who: See above for the only way in which I know how to answer this question.
What: Still a work in progress, so in the mean time, I'll leave this for you to decide. Please be kind.
At this point in life, I am a senior in high school, headed off to Florida State University next year for college. I am editor-in-chief of the school's yearbook staff (along with my long-standing best-friend “Miss. Fiesty”), as well as one of the captains for both the debate (I’m always ready for a good debate), and girls’ Varsity Soccer teams (despite my girly demeanor, I’m very competitive, and very physical.) I have been in yearbook and debate for four years now, and have been playing soccer for five (I recently found out I have a reputation among the referees as the “infamous slide-tackler.”) I’m currently “training” for a marathon. As you can imagine, this all takes up the majority of my time, -except for the marathon training, somehow that has not been very time consuming.
The next part major part of my life is devoted to “Sunshine Puppy,” another long-time friend, who has recently (a month and a half ago) has become Boyfriend. Boyfriend and I are a really cute couple, and he holds a big part of my life right now, and while our affairs rarely end without mishap, we ALWAYS have a good time together, and we never let a moment pass.
About the tangent: the relationship with Boyfriend is kind of a new thing for me, I don’t usually get hung up in my romantic relations. I have ended every previous one, and none have lasted long. I tell you this, because it is demonstrates one of my biggest traits: I take most things, especially any and all relationships(including friendships etc. in this) very seriously. I’m not an overly serious person, I like to keep things fun, and just a little bit quirky, but I am very devout.
That’s kind of how I live my life: fully. I have a big family, many friends, and a lot to do. You’ll learn more about me as I post. I'm very much considering making this a habit.
