Go easy on me-- it's my first blog. Firstly, I picked the title "la vie en turquoise" for a few reasons. I sat around trying to think of something cool edgy so people will think my blog is awesome even though my actual blogs are not. I wanted to name it "la vie en rose" which, if you haven't heard the saying, translates to "the life in pink." It basically means that you are optimistic about life because you are "seeing the world in pink." I thought this was a neat title since blogs take something simple about the day, analyze it, and comment on it with cute, witty sayings. So you are seeing life optimistically. But pink is not my favorite color so I wouldn't want to view the world as pink. Blue and green, however, are my favorites, leaving turquoise the best option. So, we have: "la vie en turquoise." I think it gives a classic saying a funky, modern spin. On to the blog... Sitting outside the union today, my friend Morgan told me I'd be a good blogger. I think this first post will prove her wrong and I love being right so here goes. I decided to start my blogs off with what I do best: procrastination. I partake in this activity just about everyday. I am actually procrastinating right now, because by creating and writing this blog, I am putting off a sketch I need to get done, which has been assigned for over a week and is due tomorrow. In fact, I'm procrastinating procrastination. Because I've been watching TV for the past 20 minutes avoiding writing this first awkward, introductory blog. It's truly something I do best, and I think it is an experience every college student should have. Fortunately, I've had years of practice. Well, I gotta go! Sorry for the brevity, but I'm meeting a friend for dinner at 6 and I've now left myself 25 minutes to take a shower and get ready. Ironic, I know. C'est ma vie en turquoise!
