    I can be a pretty loud person at times. These times are usually focused on music, general disdain or being scared. However, I get credited alot with being a fairly quiet person from a lot of people who work with/know me.

    I talk when I talk, otherwise… I’m caught up in my own mind, a TV or writing something down.

    The bad part is, I don’t speak up enough at the appropriate times. It’s pretty detrimental at work and most recently, in my personal life.

    And for lack of a better way of saying it, here is me listing and bragging about every single task I’m involved with and/or good things I see in myself.

    Let the historical record show that I still think this is pretty ridiculous.

    1. I work at a TV station.
    2. I started my own website.
    3. I just started helping out local bands by working at a booking agency.
    4. I pay for my own health insurance on time every month.
    5. I have no credit card debt.
    6. I work out almost every single day.
    7. I BEAT CANCER AT 22.
    8. I started/write for my work’s Twitter every day.
    9. I talk to my parents every day and am proud to say that I try not to cause them heartache.
    10. I have voted in every municipal, county, state and national election since the day I turned 18.
    11. I’ve written songs that I can optimistically feel people like.
    12. I’ve never totalled a vehicle.
    13. My job during high school and part of college was taking care of my grandmother every day.
    14. I feel like my teachers actually think I’m smart sometimes.
    15. I’ve never stolen anyone’s boyfriend. (Just sayin’… it’s gotta count for something)
    16. I’m in my twenties and still no babies. (Yes, you can cross your fingers too!)
    17. I’m comfortable with my own judgement and cautiousness.
    18. I’ve never committed a felony.
    19. I’m on great terms with my mayor and try to do all I can in my small town.
    20. I’ve lost almost 10 lbs in a month.

    This is my boastful list.

    I don’t need to say it out loud because it’s internally understood.

    Happy New Year everyone.

    Never committed a felony? Or just never been caught?

    Great list, though. By my count, only two of them are true of me. I’ll let you guess which two.

    Excellent list, Whitney. Those accomplishments are definitely something to be proud of (ESPECIALLY number 7!!) God bless you, girl.
