Hannimal: The Inaugural Post

Throughout my lifetime I have been known by many names, most of which were involuntarily discovered by my behavior as observed by my three older siblings.

1. Hans - (adv.) Though infrequently referenced, this nickname was originally contrived to be my alter ego, pictured below. 1998

2. The Pink Hanther - (n.) in reference to my favorite pairs of pink sweats (two identical sets were frequently sported). 1999

3. TV-Han - (melody) Lyrics are as follows: "TV-Han, TV-Han, Hannah watches TV every chance that she can." Though the music was composed in my early youth when I spent ample time watching Scooby Doo and Little House on the Prairie, the original concept was formulated much, much earlier on my 2nd Christmas. 1992

4. Mannah - (adj.) This character was formulated at church one Sunday when my brother drew a picture of what I would look like as a man. Later, it was brought to life in a moment of brilliant spontaneity before our Desolation river trip in 2009.

5. The Hannimal - (vb.) The one that stuck. References my love for adventure.

6. Most of the time, I'm just Hannah. Age 23, recent college graduate.
