First Minute
Tuesday - THE BEGINNING
   Ever since I was a young child I've always felt that I have something to say about everything.Except, as a child I was somber and spent a lot of time to myself.I was quite the anti-social.I held everything in, occasionally jotting thoughts down in a diary or a loose-leaf notebook.As I grew older I realized it was very unhealthy to keep everything bottled up and I started letting my thoughts seep out.Some negative, mostly positive;I definitely got some [unwanted] attention for speaking my mind.

  Years have gone by since I started spreading my 'gospel' and I've only recently kind of grown comfortable with publicly speaking & writing.Many say I have a gift-others say it's a talent and most say that I should have pursued a career in the field.Which I was!In high school my plan was to attend Columbia University as a Journalism or English Major and take Fashion classes [because that's my other passion].Eventually I would work as a Fashion Journalist, design clothing, work with designers somehow & then eventually down the line become a Fashion Magazine Editor.

  Long story short, I didn't end up taking that route and now I'm back to round one.Starting over, starting fresh.Except,this time around I'm not so shy [I'm quite the social butterfly]and I'm ready to unleash the real me.



  This is only the beginning.I'm going to make mistakes.I'm going to laugh at myself.I'm going to absorb everything.I'm going to learn how to be the best me that I can be.

  The point of this blog? It is so I can chronicle my life|journey and also free my mind of billions of thoughts & ideas.I find blogs [especially personals] very fascinating and I know that I'm not the only one.Take in mind that I am nowhere near rich & famous,I don't have fancy clothes & I haven't traveled in ages.But I will be making a name for myself out there soon and I'd love to look back & see where I began,where I've been & how far I have gone.It's like a diary\scrapbook;I can always go back to it when I want a good laugh, I feel nostalgic\reminiscent or I'm just plain bored.

  I don't expect to gain thousands of followers nor do I intend on getting famous off of this blog.There's always going to be someone out there that you can relate to or vice versa.I just want to speak my mind & maybe strike up some inspiration inside of someone-or atleast a good laugh.-12|08|09
