Roses are far and away my favourite flower.
But I chose my user name because my mother often called me Rosebud when I was little (at least on the rare occasions when I was being a good girl ) and using it brings back some warm memories.

To start a journal, go to the My Journal/Bootcamp section (either scroll down on the main page or go to "forum jump" at the bottom of this page and scroll down). They are in alphabetical order according to username, so you'll want "T to Z." If you click on tamarian's announcement about the forum rules, you'll see another announcement below it by Doreen which gives more info about journalling.

Cheers!
