If only I could be this articulate in real life

Hi, my name is Kendall and I like candlelight dinners and long walks on the beach.

Just kidding, not really.

I’m not a very outgoing person. I’m what most people would call shy. In a way, I’m just too lazy to put myself out there and talk to people, but I guess a bit of it is shyness too.
However, I do actually have a personality and the ability to talk. I always find it funny when I say something and people state, “You actually can talk!” Yes. Of course I can. If I couldn’t, I’m pretty sure that teachers wouldn’t call on me as they would know that I was speech impaired. Often times, it’s not that I don’t have something to say though. There’s that mechanism that most of us have (or should have) where we think about what we say before we speak. I guess I just have an overactive speech-analysis mechanism. I’ll think about what I have to say, and then decide that it doesn’t really contribute much to the conversation, and thus decide not to speak up.

But I suppose to do the basic “about me” stuff, I also have to tell the boring stuff as well.

I’m a high school student, writing this blog for a language arts class. I have a mother, father, brother, and one dog. I enjoy reading and music. I play the trombone, but I mostly just like to listen to music. When I grow up, I want to do something dealing with health sciences.

So that’s the less exciting information. The more exciting stuff will (hopefully) be able to be seen in my posts, in my opinions, and in the way I speak. So welcome to one year of what goes through my head.
