Let me Introduce Myself

You know, blogs get a bad rap. People think that blogs are things on the Internet where people complain all the time about how sucky his or her life is.

Well, I'm not here to complain about life. I'm here to rejoice it. I'm here to give the public if even only a glimpse of the American Teenager. Thoughts, ideas, etc.

First, I'll just give you a general idea of who I am.

I am Branden Andersen, a high school senior in North Carolina. I play lacrosse and football, excelling only in lacrosse. I hold a 3.5 GPA (4.03 weighted) and have been accepted to Washington State University, as well as University of Oregon. I am waiting to hear back from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Gonzaga University. 

I would like to major in communications (with emphasis in Journalism) and become a journalist some day. Yes, it is a dying occupation, but I love to write, and would like to do it some day to bring in the big bucks.

That was a joke. Journalists don't make a whole lot of money.

Like I said earlier, I love lacrosse. The season is coming up in a month or so, and I'm getting really excited about it. I play currently in a winter league, which isn't competitive but still retains some entertainment value. 

I love to write, I love to read, and I love to just be an average kid. School, sports, food, sleep, etc. You get the picture. 

So that is all I can think to write right now, but may post later. I hope to keep up with this blog, and keep you guys posted. 

Until later.

Good night, and good luck.

  1. Yay for journalism! It's NOT a dying occupation at all. It's growing at an alarming rate actually. What may be dying are some methods by which journalism is presented to the public. Journalism is moving into the new millennium and into the digital age :) Hang in there... I'm rootin' for ya :)
