First blog- A little background just to get started

So here it is. My very first blog. That's kind of interesting since I graduated college with a communication and journalism degree and all I did was write. I guess the thought of sharing what's going on in this crazy head of mine with the public was a little daunting.

But at this point in my life- I need it. I need to be more expressive and not bottle feelings up inside. And plus, I kinda miss writing!

I'm 23 years old, born and raised in bummtown, SC. I was brought up as only child with two older parents who, even though the thought of it makes me wince, spoiled me. I graduated high school and attended Coastal Carolina University where I was the editor of the school's newspaper. All my life, I "modeled" and I have established myself more as a swimsuit model these passed years. And no, that doesn't mean anything. Just means I've taken a lot of photos and got some pretty cool trips out of the deal, and also had copious amounts of less than worthly people trying to hit on me. It's fun sometimes.

After graduation, I got a full time job working in sales at an Anheuser-Busch dsitributer. It wasn't what I wanted to do, and Myrtle Beach was not the place I wanted to be anymore. Combine that with a nasty break up, and one Tuesday morning I snapped. I looked up apartments in Charlotte, and that Saturday I signed a lease. Monday morning I told my boss my rash decision. Everyone thought I was nuts. They all said, "You can't just quit a job," and I said, "Yes. I can. I just did. And I had to do it for me."

In a very basic nutshell, that sums up how I got to Charlotte. And yes, I'm still looking for the right job. Not a job, but the right job. Not only am I new and jobless in the city as I call it, I'm also, you guessed it, single for the first time in my life. Six months ago I would of laughed if someone told me this would be my current situation. Six months ago I was also very unhappy with the life I was living. I wanted more. Since that decision, my life has taken a complete 360. I'm happy about it but sad at the same time. And I believe this is why I wanted to start a blog on this very night.

I feel like this was a fair enough introduction. Tomorrow I will talk about what's really bothering me this days- relationships. Actually, most of my blogs will probably be on that subject. Feedback is welcome and appreciated : )

Thanks and have a great night!
