Jenny's First Blog

OH HAI GUYS.
I’ve had a couple of drinks, meeting Cara’s friends and eating a slightly ridiculous amount of food, so I can’t promise that this post will be full of witty insights and observant social commentary like Mhairi’s one was. However, I can talk about myself; I’ve got a relatively important interview on Thursday, so I guess I should get some practice while I can.
My name is Jenny. I’m seventeen years old, 5”5 (and a half) and have a pretty stellar BMI. I do not look (that much) like Katy Perry and my artwork isn’t (that) awesome – but I certainly do try. My favourite colour is blue, my party of choice is Lib Dem, I’ll order a rum and coke nearly every time and my favourite thing to eat is paprika flavoured crisps. I listen to music an awful lot: I can probably take you from Chet Baker to The Mountain Goats to Die Antwoord in less than ten moves. We don’t have a token black guy as much as a token underager, which is a position I’ve been filling for quite a long time. We’re not nearly as multicultural as that – not that we don’t want to be. I’ve got the ass and soul of a black girl though, so let’s play pretend... It’s the internet right?
Another thing I tend to do is make lists a lot. There are public lists and there are private lists and there are lists of my favourite quotes from The Princess Bride. It’s kind of my thing – you should probably expect to see a lot over the days and months and maybe, god knows, years.
Writing this on the fly at Lottie’s flat isn’t going to herald the best results, but what can you do? I’ll make up for it with hi-larious stories and puns – you’ll enjoy it, pinky promise. Now I’m going to go make myself pretty and get drunk. Can’t wait to read the rest of your posts, guys; I’m genuinely excited about this blogging business.
