let's get to know each otherrr

nowadays it seems like everyone has a blog, whether it be about fashion, keeping people informed while they're abroad, music preferences or just blogs to write random factoids about their day-to-day doings.

i guess i've tried to keep blogs in the past, but i've always ended up forgetting to blog or just dropping them. but lately, i've been so bored since there really isn't anything to do this summer. all i've been doing lately is online shopping and looking at clothes and shoes hahaha... which as totalllyyy not been good for my bank account.. and when i'm not shopping, i'm on hypem listening to the newist hipster tunes. oh the joy.

but anyhoo, i figured i should start a blog where i can share my favorites that i've found. that way i can remember the things i like and have them recorded instead of just buying everything i see hahahahaa. then i can also put some of my favorite new songs out there too.

and honestly, there is nothing i enjoy more than talking about myself and things i like. so here is my own little soapbox! :)
