Jiminy Cricket is beaming with pride.

 Unconventional - Not based on or conforming to what is generally done or believed: "his unconventional approach to life
Sentence: My life may be unconventional to you; but to me it's perfect. 

I appreciate the abnormal in life. The weirdos, geeks, and the sassy; who come into our lives and make us a little more daring to be ourselves because they are truly who they are 100% of the time. They have achieved something that I feel like most of us want. They are comfortable with who they are.

I recently began training at an MMA gym, and when I began to tell my peers, a few were supportive, a few didn't know what it was, and the rest were just really appalled that I, Brynne future marriage and family therapist would ever want to do something so crazy and " unladylike". I was discouraged to say the least, that I didn't get the support I wanted.

But then something changed in me, these past few weeks, I have learned to accept my quirks just a little more, to forgive my mistakes, and to listen my own little Jiminy Cricket, that tells me my life is crazy weird, and that I should embrace it.

So this is me embracing my weird hobbies, my geeky book collection, and sass that has gotten me where I am today. A successful college student who trains MMA, has a 4.0 GPA, and is happier today because I am myself.

Bug bites on my toe amongst other things.

 Nuisance- Definition  A person, thing, or circumstance causing inconvenience or annoyance
Sentence: Bug bites, people, and the song Call Me Maybe, can be such a nuisance to my daily life.

 Sometimes people are like that bug bite on your big toe. You can't wait for it to leave, you don't know how it got there, and you wish it would stop hurting you. 

Do you ever want to recommend Dr. Phil to someone so badly because you know that even though you don't really like Dr. Phil, that he might just be able to say the things you want to say, but you can't say because you are trying REALLY hard not be such a jerk?

Yeah me neither.

On a side note I went on a hike today with my singles ward and it was actually really fun. I had some great conversations with some new people, got to take a few unattractive photos that I plan on posting all over the internet, and my face got a little color. I did get bit by something that made my elbow swell up crazy big, and hand tingle for a few hours, but thanks to some drugs, sleep, and the magical powers of puppies I feel so much better,

I don't really have anything important or fun to say, but today feels like Sunday, and now my whole week is going to be all confusing. Which means nothing to you; once again I'm just rambling.

Until we meet again
Brynne.
