Greetings world!
Wow, this feels really good. I haven't blogged in ages.
Ah-hem.
Welcome to the {blogger} Love, Megan Marie.
I've been blogging
here for the past year or two. I took the plunge into Wordpress but realized that most of my favorite (and popular) bloggers use Blogger. Customizable templates are easy to come by. (I used this
website for my current template.)
I decided to come back to this website and I'm excited for it. I'm sorry to my few readers who have followed me from place to place, but here I shall stay. This domain is MINE!
I'm such a dedicated blog reader, (I check Google Reader on my phone several times daily) that it's about time I became a dedicated blog keeper. I feel like I need to have an outlet for my thoughts and a catalyst for my creativity. I'm so busy with choir and the musical at school, that now I'd like to work on some other creative outlets.
Another big reason for my desire to blog is my family.
I've been feeling so guilty today about how poorly I've been keeping in touch with them .This blog is for them.
Mike, Moka, Kate, Matt, kiddo's- forgive me? I miss you all dearly and I hope that I can use this blog to get closer to you. I also would love to make new friends so whoever is out there or discovers this little blog, would you give me a shout?*
I suppose I should continue this introductory post with some info on me, Megan Marie!
I am seventeen years old.
I grew up in South Jordan, Utah.
I moved to Calgary, Alberta, Canada when I was 12.
{Yes, I can be described as an All-American Canadian.}
I live with my parents at home, and I'm a junior in high school.
My family lives all over the place (much to my dismay).
Melissa and Randy and Annaleen live here in Calgary. Melissy is a merry maid, wife and stepmom and Randy is an all Canadian hockey loving steelworker.
Matt and Kate live in Provo, Utah. Matt is rockin' Pre Med at BYU and Kate runs the smashing
Cinnamon Ink.
Mike, Moka, and my loves Makayla, Perry, Bentley, and Stella live back home in Utah. Mike knows how to sell things and Moka is a bombin' mom and a hardcore
triathlete!
"Ah! It's the fam!"
{In case you missed it with my references to Utah and my brother in Provo and my luscious layers of modesty, I am a member of the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, aka I'm a
Mormon. }
I spend my time in the car. Actually I adore musical theater and anything drama related, which is evident by my jam packed schedule. I also love to sing, and am in the concert and jr. jazz choirs at school. With my time that is not spent on homework or extracurriculars, I love spending time with my friends, (I have a great crew), reading, listening to records, crafting, beading, fashion, watching TV and movies, journalling, travelling, facebooking or blogging, antiquing and shopping.
I also have a love affair with my cruiser
Lola who happens to be in hibernation. (IT KILLS ME to have the sidewalks full of ice and snow.)
This has been quite the post. I hope you stick around because I realize now, I have lots to say.
Love,
Megan Marie

P.S. as evident by the title, I also go by Mega Nallen. It's best when said like, MEGA NALLEN. It makes me feel loved.
