My very first blog.

I suppose I should just introduce my self a little first. I'm Donna. I'm attending school for the administrative assistant program and am blogging for the first time due to assignments we must do for written communication. So be patient with all the boring stuff I may put on here for the first time. I grew up in Germany and lived there most of my life.
My mother is German and my father is American, he served the U.S. Army for 23 years. We moved around a lot but we always extended in Germany for longer periods of time to please my Mother. So I lived in Germany most of my childhood. I have two older brothers. One still lives in Germany and the other one lives in Mo. I have not been back to Germany in thirteen years now, and I miss seeing something different, but mostly my friends and family.
I like to swim, bowl, play pool, table fussball, travel, but most of all I just like to have a lot of fun. I like to play tricks on people as long as they are harmless. I love to laugh and enjoy life!! I will sometimes just sit on a park bench to watch everything! The people and how they walk, look, dress, but most of all just watch what they are thinking or feeling. I love to admire the nice warm sunny days, with the glare of the sun reflecting from the river or water (where ever I may be by) I usually end up meeting all kinds of interesting people as I'm sitting on the park bench. Usually some out-of-towner looking for stuff to do, like where to eat or hear a band at night. I usually seem to be the one they choose to ask questions to. I wonder if it's cause I always have eye-contact with people or if it's just cause I look friendly enough. Usually I think it's cause I noticed they seem confused or lost and I offer help to them. I do it cause I am a friendly person but most of all because I know what it is like to be in a foreign town and not know anyone or anything. You would be surprised how many people I have done that for that were so pleased and thanked me more than enough times. I love just seeing people smile and feeling more welcomed. I think life is too short to be miserable, grumpy or even just plain or mean. Hope you enjoyed.
