Alyssa's past due intro

Hi, my name is Alyssa and I am 18 years old. This is my first year at WCC, my second quarter. I went to Ferndale High School and have been in the Ferndale School district since 3rd grade but I technically live in Bellingham. I’ve lived here my whole life (but in two different parts of Bellingham) and have pretty much made up my mind that I’m moving out of this area after I’m done with school. I don’t know where I’m going though. I am pursuing a degree in Medical Assisting so I am trying to tackle all of my prerequisites so that I can start that in the fall. I’m taking English 100 with Anna Wolff, along with Math 97, and Bus Computing 101.
I do a lot of texting, it’s my main form of communication with some friends. I would rather text someone then call them and talk to them directly, don’t ask me why, I don’t know. I am also on Myspace and Facebook, and use them equally. I don’t have a blog but I keep and journal type thing on my computer that I write in a lot.
My favorite type of writing is creative writing, poems and short stories. I used to write creatively a lot, but as of late I’ve kind of let life get in the way. I don’t make the time to sit down and just write, not like I used to. But I’m working on it. So, basically I try to write whenever I find myself sitting at the computer with nothing to do. It seems like there is always some sort of story going on in my head, making me an avid day-dreamer, so when I write I usually write those stories down. I also use my creative writing when I update my status things on Myspace; I tend to say random things that end up sounding a little on the poetic side. The purpose of writing creatively is to help sort out my thoughts and emotions, especially in times when said sorting is much needed. I’ve noticed that since my creative juices seem to be in hiding the past couple of months, that I really miss writing. I’m not sure how to describe it but even though I have the desire to write down my stories and such, I don’t really feel like doing so. It’s ridiculous really.
