Hello World!

Very appropriately this post will be called "hello world," if only because it is my first real post; since it will not really be read by that many people, or maybe even none for that fact, but then, it will be on the "internets" so it could be read by the whole world, but i do doubt it ever will. I should stop rambling but this blog is about me and i ramble, so i guess i will continue.

I decided to start/continue this blog in the shower yesterday while thinking of all the things i had learned that day. I thought it would be a great place to put these things down, for myself to look back on, and maybe even for others to read if theyre interested. so i will try to post something like this each day, because i think we learn something every day. hopefully this will also be interspersed with things i find interesting and fascinating goings-on in my life.

first, a few things about me:
I'm Liza (pronounced "Lee-za"), a lot of people call me Squirt. im a senior in college, basically majoring in Ultimate Frisbee. i like to act silly and i dont like to use correct capitalization or apostrophes when its not absolutely necessary, if you havent noticed yet (but i do actually like grammar and punctuation; its weird, i know.) And now, jumping right into it:

WILT (What I Learned Today):

1. Bookkeeping is way more difficult than it seems
2. you should ALWAYS reconcile your bank statement and credit card every month without fail.
3. you CAN catch a bus you just missed at the next stop if you run fast and are lucky, but if you do, another bus on the same line will show up right behind your bus in a matter of seconds, making your whole run pointless (well, at least you got some excersize.)
   
4. I can run 400's faster than i think i can & i should try to run them as fast as possible
5. trader joes is a dangerous (for your wallet) place to kill time
6. i like this list of what other people think you should be doing regularly in your life, including the wear sunblock speech
7. (for the millionth time) dont dance around on the dump (its an Ultimate term for the person receiving the resetting (sometimes backwards) pass), its ok to go upfield and let the thrower hit the other dump
8. the awe-inspiring lesson i thought of yesterday that started it all: its not about me, its about the team, pay attention to the team and dont get engrossed in yourself (i have a feeling i will be "learning" this very often)
   

having a list of what i learned, kind of automatically leads to a list of, what other than...

GOALS of the day:

1. floss in the mornings since im so bad about doing it at night
2. keep track of how much im spending and saving each month
3. wear sunblock when i'm out in the sun!
4. buy nice face sunblock
5. say something to the team after every few points
   

ok, Bye World! TTYL!
