Who am I?

"Who am I? Who am I?" *whispers* "You're Jean Valjean"...Wow, one sentence into a new blog and I'm already quoting Les Miserables...fair warning...at any given time, I could break into song, but I guess that begins to answer my question :)

I'm Melany (which I guess is sort of obvious by now ) I'm a sister, daughter, auntie, and friend. I love to do things such as singing, acting, and being dramatic. I've been in musical productions ever since I was 9 years old, and have been performing since I was 4. I also enjoy  reading (a recommendation list to be added later..), being with kids (almost all of which call me Nanny, to be explained...), and hanging out with my friends. I am home schooled, by choice, and I am a Christian. I believe the Bible is the whole truth, and nothing but the truth...and God is in absolute control, over absolutely everything.

I am 15 years old. I have 5 other siblings, two older sisters-Ashley and Shelby, an only brother-Joe, a little sister currently in Heaven-Gracie, and a baby sister-Faith. Between my two older sisters, I have 3 gaggles (my nickname for nieces and nephews...because the world does not have a general term for them, such as sisters and brothers have the word siblings, or moms and dads have the word parents...So given the lack of term, I made my own :)) named Tristan, Gemma, and Taryn. Most the children in my life call me Nanny, Nan, Nanners, Auntie Nan, or whatever other variation of the name they prefer, and here's the reason why: My  brother is 3 years younger than I, and as we grew up together, he couldn't pronounce "Melany", what came out, sounded like "Nanny" and it stuck...in fact it has ever since :)

My blog name, MelanyCat, does not hint to any love, or really interest at all to cats. They are actually an animal I dislike, I chose my name for a good reason. I was given the middle name Catherine, after a family member, and have used the name "MelanyCat" as many things for years...funny story actually , *cue flashback*... Yesterday afternoon as I was considering many different things as a name for this blog, I asked my brother what he could see it being if I did have one. After a multitude of silly answers (he's quite the dork) he said "MelanyCat", and I had considered it before, my only concern was, people thinking it was a closet love for cats. So I explained to him why I wasn't totally sure about that one, and he said "Wait, so you don't love cats?". My mom and I were in hysterics, that my exact concern, had even been true with my brother, someone I grew up with...so moral of the story being...I do not like cats, I like my middle name :)

Another thing you should know about me, is that I do not "date". I still fully intend to marry (Lord willing), I just go about it in another way. This will be much more lengthily described in one of my first few blogs. (Here's the link... Why I don't date)

Some other random facts about me would be; I don't like to match my socks, I love Batman, I hate seafood (with a passion), I work at Dairy Queen, my favorite color is purple (if you hadn't figured that out yet given my profile set up :)), I'm very indecisive (which makes my next random fact surprising), my favorite musical of all time is "The Phantom of the Opera", I have a minor case of OCD, and my newest interest concerning fandoms is "Doctor Who", though I am a die hard "Harry Potter" fan.

So in conclusion, here is a rough introduction to this new blog! :)
