Hello.

Writing things down calms me. Finding words to express myself gives me satisfaction. Hence the decision to start a blog.
My name is Ryann. Like the boy's name, pronounced like the boy's name. (NOT Ry-Anne, which is how it's called out in every single doctor's office, waiting room and restaurant.) Besides that fact, I  quite like my name, my parents gave it to me.
I'm short, like to think of myself as "witty" and have been described as a "fireball." I have the hair of Christine (from Phantom of the Opera) and Lorde (the musician). I have a passion for health...and hair care. California is my home. No, I do not live on the beach or in Hollywood.
Thrift Stores are my answer to everything. 90% of my wardrobe comes from those miracles. The other 10% is off the internet. I love scarves, oxfords and converse. Rings are my favorite. Vintage, new, cheap, pricey...my hands feel naked without rings.
I'm an artist and oil paint is my medium. People are my subjects.
I am on an Improv team, I perform Shakespeare in the park during the summer, and musicals in the fall. I recently joined an acapella group, sing like a rockstar in the car, and am a master at Zumba.
Basically, art is life.
I like to be independent and discover things for myself. When I was a little girl, and people would call me cute, I would assuredly point out "I am not cute, I'm smart." Although I don't mind as much today if people call me cute, I would still love to be appreciated for more than outward appearance.
There's more...but I'll let who ever is reading this digest all that information.
Never done this before, I'm about to click the innocent, little, orange "publish" button.
Hoping I won't regret this...
