Double greetings!

Hello, lovelies! I'm the other new intern, Ari. I haven't written anything this summer aside from book reviews and letters to my friend in Hungary, so this intro blog entry has to be the most difficult task before getting back into the swing of things. "People want to know about you, Arianna!" Chris A. said to me. Challenge accepted.

A little bit about me: I play blues guitar, solve Rubik's Cubes, and read endlessly. I'm a nervous driver, and a reluctant internet junkie. I grew up in the Bay Area, but I studied creative writing at UC Santa Cruz, among the deer, the beaches, and the redwoods.

You guys. This is literally my first day. My first day. Someone must have set their phasers to stun, because that's how I awoke this morning. Wanting to dress to impress, I put some fresh Band-Aids on my knees where I skinned them this past weekend. Walking into OLL, I knew I was going to love it. If you haven't seen it, it's a long office with clean white walls, decorated with posters from past NaNoWriMo and Script Frenzy events. The office chairs are pretty comfy, and supportive when I sit cross-legged and go into blog lady mode. I feel like a kid at a new school, except in this case my new school is classy as you-know-what. 

I eagerly await November with the rest of you!
