The first Musing... Some Housekeeping

Why hello there!
Since this is my first post, some explanations are due.
1. Why have I chosen to blog? 
2. What does the name of my blog mean?
3. Who am I?


So let's start off with... The last question-- because that's just how I roll (randomly/without aim/easily distracted-- ADD if you must).
First off, I'm a born-again Christian. That's the most important thing anyone could ever know about me. My relationship with the almighty, loving, redeeming Father isn't perfect, and neither am I. I'm just forgiven [which is straight up AWEsome!] 
I'm also a sophomore in college. One day, I hope to make a difference in people's lives... So yeah, I'm studying an allied health care field because I love the human body and its intricacies. What better way to make a difference than helping people take care of and/or fix the thing that we all carry around daily?


Question 2:
What does Spare Change mean?
Weeellll.... I have a (slight) obsession with spare change. Especially pennies. Why? Well, I love that whole "A penny saved is a penny earned" concept, and if I just find a whole bunch of pennies and save them, then how much neater is that? Don't get me wrong, I love those days when I find a nickel or dime (quarters are sweet too!) but pennies are more common.
But there are more reasons-- I like to rationalize things:

• Spare Change literally-- I'm fairly resistant to change of any kind. It makes me nervous and change can be hard to cope with and adjust to.
• Spare Change as the last few thoughts-- oftentimes, I lie in bed trying to go to sleep, but just can't because SO many things are running through my head. So why not get them out in an online journal?
• Spare Change in relation to God-- Go figure, I'll throw in the God card twice in one post, huh? Well, I don't want my life be lived so that God only gets the spare change instead of the big bucks. Even though I'm not perfect (just forgiven!) the Almighty deserves my utmost.
• As I was running one day, musing about what the name of this blog should be, I found a beautiful shining penny. Coincidence? I think it was just perfect timing!

Lastly... Question 1:
Why have I chosen to blog?
Over the past few months, I've started following a few blogs, most of them doctors, pre-meds, or med students. I also love the idea of journaling. This is a place for me to muse, and honestly it's SO much more convenient than keeping up with a paper journal.


Until the next post...
