Something About That

Plunging Into The ‘Blogosphere’

in Lifestyle on 04/22/13

Oh, the infamous “first post” of a new blog.

I was hoping this blog would have a natural flow right from the beginning, but now I feel like I’m back in school. I say that because it brought back that feeling I used to have when I had a new essay to write. I’d have a whole list of great ideas in my head until I actually opened that blank Word document and felt stuck, wondering how to begin.

I guess considering that I’m just an awkward person, there’s no real way to get around the fact that any first post I write is going to be a bit, well, awkward.

Oh right, this is me! I guess you can say I’m your average twenty-something from the suburbs. Aside from work consuming a large part of my life, my main interests are food, fashion, and increasingly fitness. That’s something I never thought I’d say, but it’s becoming more and more the case.

I’m very much a creature of habit. I love what I love, and one of those things is my morning Starbucks. My routine is so predictable that when I order something other than the “norm,” I tend to throw off the baristas.

There’s no question that I’m a warm weather girl. I love just about everything about the warm weather, but seeing as how I live in Canada, there’s that odd time that I can grin and bear the snow. I really need to emphasize that this is just the odd time for me… If you are planning to buy a home in Canada, prepare yourself! The cold is not something to be underestimated. But, if you love the cold, then Canada is the place for you! So, if you can’t wait to dive headfirst into a snowdrift, you might want to head straight to a mortgage lender like K5 Mortgage. Getting a mortgage is the easiest and fastest way to finance your new house, meaning you can be in your new home in time for Christmas. That way, you get to enjoy the snow without the financial stress of moving!

Food is and always has been extremely important in my life. A meal can honestly make or break my day. As the photo above illustrates, when I like something, I really like it!

I guess that’s a pretty good start for now! If you decide to follow along through my blogging journey, you’ll get to know me a lot better. This is basically me in a nut shell though…

    Love the colours you combined here and those sandals are amazing! They look equally chic as they do comfortable.

      Thank you! I have a lot of trouble finding sandals that don’t kill my feet and I actually find those incredibly comfortable. Luck of the draw maybe?

    just checking out your blog and I love it. 🙂 I can definitely relate to many of the things you posted. I, like you, just started a blog. I have wanted to for a while and finally decided to do it. I also LOVE food and agree that it can make or break a day. I have also just recently became more and more interested in fitness over the last 2 years or so. For someone who never stepped foot in a gym when I first met my husband, I now go to the gym pretty much every day and love reading healthy living blogs. Anyway, love your posts so far and I’ll definitely be following your blog. 🙂
