Me...but better...

You know when your mommy told you could be anything you wanted to be when you grew up? Well apparently I am...everything I want to be that is. Googling my name provides me with not only my own (lame) life but also the lives of many other Kelly-Lynne's that exist (or have existed) out there in cyberspace. First off I am a photographer working for what looks to be National Geographic, and apparently I am also a philanthropist from the looks of things. I have a degree from University of North Carolina, I can run the 60 meter dash (despite the fact I hate running...all very admirable Googlegangers I should say. The third is a link to some assignment for my "History in the Atlantic" class at UMBC. The fourth thing on the list is a link to my first article for Washtenaw Community College...pretty rough really.
Most of the things on the first page seem to be me: my honor roll from high school, pictures of me from my field hockey team, and various publications I have written for. I would say most of the links that contain my name are me...although some are completely embarrasing. My boyfriend recently found my old blurty.com account from when I was 15 and read all about my crush on my ex boyfriend...very awkward actually. He seemed to enjoy himself immensely by asking me about different things I said and reading back my stupid childish rantings.
As far as being unique or being anonymous, the things on my list for my name are really not that bad they are mainly things I wouldn't mind the entire world knowing about...like the fact I was a pretty cool student in high school or about different things I have written. What does scare me though is my old blurty being on there...that is means for blackmail.

Wow you really are famous. 60 meter dash, ey? that is awesome. At least the things that you did find of yourself were from your accomplishments at high school. I'm not even sure what blurty.com is, but it sounds amazing. That is funny that you can look back on that stuff.
