Thing 2: Creating My Blog and Avatar

I am not a very creative person.  Therefore, my blog name is my first initial and my last name.  Boring, right?  I really need to work on my creativity so I can create fun lessons for my students.

The blog was not hard for me to create.  The website had step-by-step instructions and it only took about five minutes.  As long as I have directions, I can get the job done pretty easily.  I wanted a profile that reflected my interests, so I chose a background with: BOOKS!!  I have been called a nerd my whole for loving to read so much, but I definitely don't let it bother me.  I want to be an elementary school librarian and hopefully instill in them the same love of learning and reading that I have had from a young age.  Both my mom and my grandma are librarians, so I guess it is in my blood!

My avatar is a pretty good representation of my personality.  She is simple, but still pretty.  I feel that is the way I present myself to the world.  I am not someone who always has to wear makeup or dress up to impress people.  I feel that if people cannot accept me for my natural self, then they don't deserve to be in my life.  My avatar looks pretty similar to myself.  I have brown hair and green eyes, and her hairstyle is remarkably similar to my own. She is wearing a pink shirt because pink is my favorite color.  I wear jeans practically every day, so I dressed her in jeans as well.  I wanted people who read my blog to see me for who I am, not just a made-up character.
