Greetings

Okay so the initial post, I've been procrastination writing this for some reason. Probably just didn't want to sit down and write the first post as I don't have much to share currently.

I started this blog as I am going to try and follow the Bento Summer School, even though I "signed up" at the end of the second week I'm going to try and catch up. One of the first week's assignments was to create a Bento Journal and/or blog. I created a blog, because I like blogs; and I have an android phone (Evo 4g) that I'm obsessed with slightly and with a blog I can update from it and it's another excuse reason I need to have it with me always.^.~

So bento's is the purpose here. I've bought some bento goodies or stuffs as I've read on many amazing,  wonderful other bento blogs out there. I have pictures of what I've bought but I'll give a run down. I have 2 bento boxes, an onigiri mold, nori punch, and I feel like I'm forgetting something. Anyways I've bought all this, I've made some onigiri, but have not assembled a bento yet. I'm lucky enough to have a few Asian markets here in San Antonio, and one Japanese grocery that's awesome. Most of my purchases are from J-list though so far.

Which is my motivation for joining Summer school, I don't have kids so these are going to be made for myself or my awesome boyfriend. I plan to start on week 3's assignment as it came today, and if I have time or am ambitious enough will try to do the last two weeks also. ^.^ optimistic I am.

A little about me, I work as a brain trainer, which is a pretty cool job. I get to make people smarter, literally, like their IQ's increase and they actually become smarter and more able to learn. It's done through cognitive training (things like long term memory, short term memory, auditory processing, visualization, etc) I want to be a classroom teacher, I am certified for elementary and have my Master's degree in Education  (concentration Curriculum and Instruction), my Bachelor's degree is in Speech Communication with a minor in Business. I have an awesome man in my life as I mentioned before, he makes me happy. There's also a cat, and currently two lizards in to complete our household. We live in San Antonio, Texas too. So it's a unique but pretty big city, which is often easy to forget.
