Pizza for Breakfast

Sitting outside, seventy degrees, Saturday, no work, and eating pizza: seems like a good morning to start a blog! (Not that I really have a choice!) I'll be honest, I never wanted to start a blog. I always thought of blogs as a sort of online diary, and why would I want to make that available to everyone?! But I guess every person gets to decide what kind of information he of she will share. As of now, I just plan on using this for class. But who knows, maybe I'll love it and become a blogger! (Doubtful) This site made it pretty simple to set up a blog. The instructions were very easy to follow. I actually felt like I was setting up a new Myspace profile! There were so many options with all the fonts and font colors! I really didn't know how to decide. So I chose not to think to hard about it. I recommend just choosing your favorite colors, that way everyone will learn a little bit about you just by the design you choose. When I saw the word 'widget' I didn't have a clue what that meant! But if you click on it you get very helpful descriptions of all the options for widgets. I placed my picture on my profile as a widget. It was very easy to just upload it from my computer. Maybe someone could tell me how to post other links on my page?

So enough about creating a blog, I'm sure you really just wanted to learn more about me! :)
My name is Amanda! Some call me Mondo, Mander, and two special boys call me Auntaman!
Well I come from a really awesome town where Wal-Mart is somewhere to go on a Friday night. Exciting, right? No, not at all. I spend as much of my time as possible in other towns. I like doing all the normal stuff, going to movies, bowling, hanging out with friends, and go skydiving. I don't really have much free time these days. I work at my parents' pizza place, Gramboli's Pizza, and coach a high school competitive dance team. This past year I went for one of my goals, to be a Colts Cheerleader. I made it through four out of five rounds. I'm pretty happy with that as my first try! I will be trying out again next year! Speaking of the Colts, I'm a season ticket holder. I absolutely love going to Colts games! (Goodbye, Lock-Out!) I come from a huge family and I love it! My sisters, brother, and cousins are my best friends. I don't count on my friends for much of anything. They've all let me down too many times. I have an amazing boyfriend, Ryan, who I'm going to marry one day. :) I just transferred to IUPUI this past spring. I was at IU Bloomington, but missed my family too much. I really enjoy being at IUPUI now!
Well, lucky for me I get to spend my Saturday with my nephews, Brysen, he's six, and Mason, just a month old!

  2. Hey I'm Mallory. I come from a town where Wal-Mart is fun to go too as well on a Friday. How weird. Also I love my nephew too! He's also t11 months old and adorable. I'd rather hang out with him than almost anyone else a bunch of the time!

  5. Thanks Amanda. Your blog looks great. There are some great blogs that are used for education (can you find any?) so, like Facebook these things can be used for a variety of purposes.
