A Girl With the Whole World on #TheBlindList

Sharing my story is not an easy task because I do not like serving my lack of general knowledge on the silver platter for even my closest friends; however, this contest, #TheBlindList , triggered my desire to just spill the beans. Believing that the readers would be understanding and open-minded, I have finally gathered my wits to share my geographically-challenged side here.

It was a dark and stormy night.

Okay not night, but late evening.
