What?
I love the word indescribable for many reasons. One of these many reasons is that when the word indescribable is used, it immediately becomes untrue. How, you might ask? Well, if nothing more, simply describing something as indescribable then makes it... (here’s the kicker!) describable. In fact, it has just been described! The word indescribable is it’s own worst enemy in that way, I think.
Like our dear friend indescribable, I also can be my own worst enemy at times. For instance, I have put far too much thought and energy into this simple introduction (which, if you were wondering, has absolutely no requirements or guidelines other than mere existence) when really, I could have easily knocked out a mediocre but acceptable introduction days ago!I’m also my own worst enemy in that I am lactose intolerant but I still really love ice cream.
Having high standards for myself is simultaneously a blessing and a curse; my work is of a higher quality and caliber (or so I’ve been told) because I commit myself to it, but it also causes me far more stress than it likely should because I’d rather turn in nothing than something I feel is not my best work, or at least an acceptable, though slightly less satisfactory imposter posing as my best. (Prayerfully, my grades will reflect the high quality rather than the high stress—we will see!) With that being said, I intend only to bestow my best work upon anyone who reads my writings here, or anywhere.
So welcome to the inner workings of the mess that is Lyz’s Brain, we hope you enjoy your stay.

Hello Lyz, my name is Noelle Bruce, and I'm from Las Vegas. Poetry is a great love of mine. In fact, I write my own often and I like to believe I am pretty good at it. Unfortunately, I am not as good at writing papers or anything academic really. I love that you did not do a simple introduction. Unlike my introduction, yours lets the reader into your mind a bit more. It is a great quality to only put out your best work, but I understand how it can be stressful. I look forward to being in class with you!
