An Introduction...

Bonjour!

I guess, since this is our very first blog post, we need to sort of introduce ourselves... and our blog. Chances are you already know us, but I'd venture to say you don't know what atychiphobia is. We didn't either, but now we do (kinda like Bill Nye the Science Guy!) Um, yeah... Atychiphobia is the fear of failure. We kind of decided upon it for two reasons. One, we both are somewhat atychiphobic and two, we thought it was a damn cool word. So there you go.

Together, we are an interesting boyfriend-girlfriend type "couple" who have completely opposite opinions on everything. It's likely that this will just be a series of alternating e-arguments with each other, but I guess that's part of the fun. This is Ryan and really we aren't complete opposites.. I mean a little bit but yeahhh. So you'll easily be able to tell that we're different, seeings as she's uber formal and I'm well... not... but hell, opposites attract.

As individuals, we are Kimberley and Ryan.

I'm Kimberley, a twenty-year-old student at UNM. I have ridiculously high aspirations... a double major in biology and Spanish, a possible "double minor" in chemistry and psychology... all with hopes of getting into medical school in a few years. Plus, I want to learn at least five foreign languages... for fun. And yes, I actually find that fun. Anyways, once I'm a med student, I hope to specialize in pediatric oncology for some very specific reasons. I guess the main reason is that I don't want to see little kids suffer from something out of their control.

Enough with the "serious" stuff... Everything else there is to know about me is pretty boring. My favorite colours are green and purple, I like to play tennis, I stress about anything and everything you can imagine, I'm semi-phobic of spiders, crawly insects, flying insects, and public speaking, and on most days, I love life. It just gets masked by my super high stress levels a lot of the time. She also forgot to mention how much of a perfectionist she is; it's cool, but hard on such a slacker like me.. seeing as I can't spell.. speak.. or, well, do anything really. Should be entertaining for you guys though that's for sure.

I really have no specific reason for wanting to have a blog with Ryan except for the fact that it might be another good way to help me procrastinate on homework. And because I think he'll be nicer on a blog he shares with me ;) I guess it's time to find out...

So yeah, this is Ryan now. This will be our only "together" post, but since it's an intro it works out better this way. I'm also a student at UNM, older than Kimberley :), but she's totally more mature than I am. So the reason we started a blog was for shits and giggles, but it will enhance our "relationship" maybe.. or it'll completely destroy it. We'll see! I also plan on going to med school, although I won't be making it for years and years and years--if ever--but I'm gonna major in Psychology, possibly double major in Psych and Bio if I don't slack off too much. Then go to med school for Psychiatry, I love the crazies what can I say? My fav colors are blue and green, I love music, and Miss Kimberley was the one who introduced me to the pure joy of indie :) anddd oh I'm a huge bookworm.. really a bookanaconda or bookwhale--I'm not a fattie though. I tend to rant and rave and be racist and such.. but Kim won't let me do that here so it'll be really tame I hope.. well not on your standards, but on mine. Kimberley has learned to "deal with it"--not really but she tries--and I hope you will too.

Well that's our introduction and we'll be posting more hopefully.. though school sucks.. so maybe not soon. Be expecting a post from Ryan first :)
