Umm, how’s it goin’? *headnod*
I’m not quite sure how to start off the first blog without it sounding like the “about” page.
How about an icebreaker? Embarrassing stories anyone?
This one’s a bit stupid and I still feel terrible, but here goes.
Once upon a time, I was hanging out at home by myself. I was playing the guitar when the doorbell rang. I was slightly confused since I wasn’t expecting anyone. I went downstairs to answer it anyways. I opened the door and there was
The
Sketchiest
Guy
I’ve
Ever
Seen
…
Ever.
Once I opened the door, he asked me where my mom was. I immediately had this flashback to when I answered the door for another stranger who had asked me where my mom was. I told my mom about her later that day and she said, “Rachel, if anyone asks where I am, don’t say anything.” After recalling this life-lesson, I slammed the door on Sketchy Guy.
He wouldn’t leave the driveway though.
I began to freak out. What would you have done if some sketchy guy didn’t leave your property??
I blasted a heavy metal song on the speaker to see if it would scare him. The song is by System of a Down.

Call me stupid, ridiculous, silly, foolish, or whatever word that floats your boat.
However, it didn’t work.
heh
I called my dad, who told me to push the red panic button, which would call the guards over.
Finally, one of the guards came and I tried my best in broken Chinese to tell the guard to “Remove that man!!!” I think it came out as, “I don’t know that guy…”
In the end, my dad had one of his co-workers, who lives nearby, come over and help translate. The man was escorted off the premises (hehehe I’ve always wanted to say that) and I was left with ‘Vicinity of Obscenity’ blasting on the speaker.
Turns out Mr. Sketchy Guy was the gardner.
Oh woe is me…
On that note, I’ll leave you with a song that I’m currently obsessed with. It’s by Joy Williams.

I probably need permission to post those songs. Copyright infringement not intended! Hopefully, that helps.
I’ll be posting a song that I’m obsessed with, every blog post, given the benefit of the doubt that my blog won’t be taken down for copyright infringement.
Any embarrassing stories that you want to share?
