Something to Think About



So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one piece of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future.

IFB!

No, not BFB, the popular song by Victoria Justice, something different. IFB, which stands for Independent Fashion Bloggers is hot hot hot and I as a blogger will be keeping up with their tips and tricks for a while. The website consists of all types of help for fashion bloggers, and even for those who aren't specifically fashion like me, this site is STILL a ton of help! There are all types of networking tips, topic help, and not to mention it's a website crafted for fashion (did I mention it was hot hot hot?)! I highly reccomend that if you are a fashion blogger, or just a blogger, or even a lover of fashion, that you don't sleep on IFB. And hey, you might see me on there one day........... It's a stretch, but you just might. XOXO -S

I wanted to go to the best journalism school, despite snarky remarks from classmates insinuating that I wasn't good enough. And when I got in , honey, excited was an understatement. I started my first day of college in 2013. And now I'll be walking across a stage to get this expensinve diploma in a week. I can't say it's all been pleasant - because it hasn't. It's been a tough ride many days, some I wondered if this day would ever come. Some I felt so isolated and alone that I f...
