Explanations

I haven't left yet but I wanted to get this up and running before I head off. It may take some getting used to so I want to get comfortable with this...blogging thing...

So, if you're like my brother, you think the name of my blog is hilarious. I mean seriously, he laughs everytime! So I thought I'd give it a little explaination. The 'Hole' is (obviously) Jackson Hole, the location of my Bible College. Yakking, as defined by dictionary.com means"to talk especially uninterruptedly; gab; chatter" or incessant idle talk". Or, my favorite, "to talk at length about trivial subjects" (Merriam-Webster) Synonyms include confabulate, prattle, yammer, babble, run on etc. For those who know me (I'm guessing most of you do or else why would you be reading this random blog), these words pretty much describe me. In other words...I like to talk.

When I heard from my school that we are PROHIBITED Facebook (apparently it's a distraction. who would have guessed????) I had to find another way to tell everyone what is going on in my life. I mean, this is a big change and there is going to be so many new things to talk about. As I told some friends, "I HAVE to talk". So what better way than on a blog where I can "prattle" all I want, uninterrupted about anything and everything. And the best part...you can just exit if you get sick of my yammerings and I won't even know or be offended!

But I hope you find this a little more interesting than all that and that you will continue to visit. I will do my best to only write the most fascinating things, to keep the blog updated and to avoid spelling mistakes.

Until next time!
