So Here Goes
Well, this is my first shot at blogging, thanks to Kate's Ink Yep, I'm the notorious Music Therapy buddy Carrie. Besides that, I'm an ametuer writer/song writer, and a Special education graduate student. I will post my own top ten list of important songs, when I get to it, but for the moment I thought I'd at least start this thing out and give it a test run. Just so whoever is out there reading can know something about me (if you don't already, here's ten things you might like to know (or not) about me:
- I have played flute for around 13 years.
- I am an aspiring author; I have several books on the back burner that I have been writing since the 11th grade.
- I role play frequently at The Escape Pod
- I lived 17 years of my life in Bartlett, TN (a suburb of Memphis) til I was transplanted to Jacksonville, FL
- I have my bachelor's degree in Music Therapy from the Florida State University.
- I have a passion to work with children with special needs, particularly those who have physical handicaps.
- I was born with a cleft palate.
- I have a mild neuromuscular disorder which causes weakness in my arms and legs. There is no specific diagnosis to this day, even almost 20 years after the original diagnosis. I have no known genetics to this problem.
- I am an avid Star Wars fan (like most of you don't already know this!). I also like X-men, Spiderman, and Smallville (if I could ever watch the new episodes on Wednesday nights, that WOULD be nice).
- I also love coffee and hot tea...and, of course, Hershey's chocalate and almond bars.

Hey, good to see you here! The world is a happier place, heh.
And here are 10 other things you may (or may not) want to know about Carrie:
1. Her idea of "driving" is rolling backwards out of my driveway, across the street, and squarely into my neighbor's yard (leaving huge tread marks of goodness).
2. She has eaten dry spaghetti noodles covered in chocolate sauce. It tastes, looks and smells as horrible as it sounds.
3. Girl can daaaance. Just ask my brother-in-law, who was her dancing partner at my wedding.
4. "I-I-I want you to know I hate you ... So good to know I got an enemy like you!" (If your name is Becky, she may or may not sing this song to you.)
5. If you're at the arcade and running a little low on cash, just ask Carrie for "Another coin, pleeeease."
6. I didn't go to my senior prom, but Carrie (who didn't even go to my school) flew to Memphis to go to said prom. If I recall, it was at the zoo.
7. Carrie enjoys massive cups of coffee, especially when she can listen to the acoustic stylings of a guy named Zero Ohm.
8. "Yesterday, I think you sang this song yesterday. Can't you learn another song today? I'm getting tired of 'Yesterday.'"
9. Her feet are *not* the size of walnuts. Oh, wait. Yes they are. ;-)
10. If she's really mad, Carrie will throw shoes at you. No, she doesn't care if you're wearing glasses. I know a guy who can attest to this.
