My Umpteenth Attempt to Blog...

So here I go again. Why do I keep trying to blog? Because I feel I have a lot to say, and good...no great things to say. This time, I'm not writing for an audience. I'm just writing. I'm always googling topics and reading other people's blogs, and I appreciate the info they share. So I feel it's only right...I put as much info out into cyberspace as I take, and as the name of my blog says...You may or may not relate. First thing first, I'm not paying any attention to grammar. I'm just "free-writing." Why? Because if I think about it too much, this blog won't go up. 

So a little about me.


   I moved to NY about 5 months ago. Why do people leave the South and move to New York? To pursue modeling and acting of course! Yep! That's what I want to do. For the longest I was afraid to say that because people kinda roll their eyes, and look at you like you're crazy. 

They be like, "you can't do that, that's impossible" *deep voice*

 Well...I'll be that. Yesterday, I thought I was so far away from my dream. I was looking at all the things I'm not doing right. How I don't know anyone, I haven't submitted any photos to modeling agencies, I haven't taken any pics for modeling agencies, I couldn't keep up with the blog I first created...etc, etc...Then a light bulb went off ...

What about all the things I've done right? 



"Hello! I moved to NY! That's a huge! giant! step!"

                                              "Oh yea...I totally forgot about that."

"I'm taking acting classes!"

                                               "hmm...that is right..."

"I have a job in NYC...it's real cool, real laid back, nice location...and um yea...I'm blogging now, at work!"

                                                "True...I definitely couldn't have done this at my old job." 

So the moral or point of the story is to say focus on your strengths. Build yourself up, don't tear yourself down. And look, by me focusing on my strengths, it gave me the energy to blog again. Will I blog again tomorrow. Who knows? Probably not cause it's the weekend. I'm not gonna put pressure on myself to keep this up. I'm just really proud of myself for getting this out. 

Now, I may or may not proofread...I'm just being honest.
