WELCOME TO MY BLOG. 

I’m THRILLED. You should be too.

Doesn’t “blog” sounds totally early 2000s though? Oh, the nostalgia. Back then I was coding my MySpace page (pink, glitter, & “Dragula” by Rob Zombie was the vibe), spending copious amounts of time bouncing between late night chats on AIM chat and bootlegging thousands of songs from Limewire. Needless to say, I am NO stranger to the small screen. Ah, the memories!

Along with those obsessions, I had some others. Like reading anything I could get my hands on, especially women’s lifestyle magazines. I would literally sit in my room for 10 hours a day on the weekends, poring through these magazines, teaching myself stuff like how to properly braid my hair and care for my skin.

And when I was done with the reading part, I would take a pair of scissors to every single magazine and cut out everything and anything that was inspiring to me. From middle school until the time I left home to move into my first college apartment, my bedroom walls were collaged from floor to ceiling with sassy quotes, pictures of the California coast, luxury homes and gorgeous women dressed in fabulous clothes.

Looking back, this was a giant vision board for my future and I had no idea at the time. 

Anyways. I LOVE reading. I love writing. I love learning. I love creating. And I LOVE to share. So this just seemed like the next logical move for me. I’ve spent many, many years hustling my way to get myself on the right path to the life I truly wanted to live and I’m FINALLY at the point where I’m comfy enough to be able to take on another project, AKA my beautiful brand new baby blog.

Because I’m also the type of woman where once I do something… I REALLY DO something, ya know? Balls to the wall. Go big or go home. Sh*t or get off the pot.

You get it. 

And yes, I could very well be making these posts into YouTube videos for “easier digestion,” or so the “experts” say. But truth be told, writing is my way. The Youtube vids will keep coming. The XXX vids will keep coming. But I love to write and therefore, write I shall.

Plus, reading is a lost art. I would likely be naked living in the treetops scrounging around for twigs and berries had I not discovered books and hence the power of education and learning and being able to teach oneself literally anything. 

So I’ll keep this short and sweet. WELCOME to my brand new slice of cyber paradise. I’ve got LOTS and LOTS of juicy stuff up my sleeves for you, so GET EXCITED.

We’re gonna get real, we’re gonna get raw & we’re gonna get weird. 

Now I’m gonna go have a snack. Popcorn with nutritional yeast is calling my name and I am HERE for it. Catch ya on the flip side, bb’s. 

ps: if this is your first time discovering me, you can learn more about who I am & what my deal is here.
