Whoa look it's a blog.

Hello, everybody!  So we're about one week into 2012 and I thought what better way to discuss my resolution-y-thingies than my new blog!  That's original, isn't it?  (No, it's really not.)

So basically I only have two resolution-y-thingies and they are as follows:
  1. Read 50 books this year
  2. Post 50 vlogs this year
That simple.  Although judging by how often I post videos and how much I have been reading this past week, maybe not so much...But hey, at least I have an alibi for the reading bit.  Fault in Our Stars comes out in like four days.  Who's pumped?

I was considering making "stop procrastinating" or at least "procrastinate less" one of my resolutions.  I almost did, too.  Only I didn't, because frankly I knew I would most definitely NOT keep that one.  Me and procrastination go together like peanut butter and jelly.  Oreos and milk.  Ron and Hermione.  You get where I'm going with this.

While we're on the subject, here's a random yet humorous procrastination story: in the eighth grade, I had a paper on volcanoes or something stupid and complex that I put off until about 8:30 the night before it was due, of course.  So I spend about a good three to four hours working on the paper (and simultaneously chatting with people on Gmail) and just BS the crap out of that paper.  I get it back about a month later or so.  The grade?  100%.  BOOYAH.

Okay, I think you've heard enough from me today.  But if you haven't, check out my vlog at youtube.com/maddyrunswithlions and my new Tumblr at maddyrunswithlions.tumblr.com.  I know--REALLY original with the usernames.  At least there's only one to memorize for the both of us.
