ode to follower #8: Megan

Well... what can I say about my friend, and new blog follower, megan? I could talk about our 'pretend' attraction to one another that has been a running joke for the past 5 years. As I heard said on "that 70's show", we are one bottle of wine away from making out. Haha. No, somehow I don't think that will ever end up happening, despite how much it has been discussed. I don't think I could be a lesbian in reality... I dunno. I still think you are beautiful Megan, but I love boys (in particular my boy) too much :) What am I apologising for? She isn't gay either hehe. Anyway. Let me tell you a little bit about Megan. The following may or may not be factual information... and she may or may not be wearing a top in this photo:



Megan Rainbow Baggins was born in a remote village in the Australian outback. Her parents were on a whirlwind tour of the country before child #2 came along - effectively hampering their travel plans for a while - when Megan's mother went into early labour. After they were all well enough to travel, they returned back to Victoria and settled in to raise their new daughter properly. Megan's father worked as a male nurse, which came in handy during the outback birth of his baby girl, and he often worked long hours away from home. When he came home from night shift he would serenade his baby with songs he invented about the Periodic Table and cell division and a step by step sing-song about how to properly administer an epidural. Perhaps some of this rubbed off as little Meg's first word was indeed 'radioactivity'.

As years went by, and by the time she entered High School, it was clear to those around her that Megan was in fact a genius. A genius disguised as a fun-loving beach babe. Megan excelled in her studies, and was often labelled a "nerd" by her peers who were obviously jealous of her abilities in the classroom. This didn't bother her too much, for she had very thick skin. It's a medical thing...

Anyway, Megan was one of those mystery girls at school. Very pretty and popular, but then also cast asunder for being so smart, and having 'nerdy' interests. An avid Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings fanatic, Megan could be seen at all the conventions and meetings swishing her cape around with a maniacal grin across her face as she stroked 'her precious'... and by that I mean the replica "one ring" she had purchased. Megan excelled particularly in Chemistry at school, and chose to continue studying this at University. 6 Years on, Megan can be found still stroking her precious, still watching LOST, still studying Chemistry, but with the additional awesome fact that she is almost DR. MEGAN RAINBOW BAGGINS. When she isn't taking part in the above activities, she can be found lecturing University students only a few years younger than herself, and inventing new stuff in relation to Diabetes. If only my memory was amazing enough to explain how clever this girl is, and shed the appropriate amount of light on her achievements. HEY EVERYONE, COME SEE HOW GOOD MEGAN IS!

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

PS. She was wearing a top in the photo... but I cropped it to be a smarty pants! Also she is a genius and invents stuff and makes me feel inadequate as a human functioning in society. *cry*
