Hey guys and welcome to a brand new blog post! I am just sitting at home (duh) and decided to write a few thoughts over into this space! One thing I absolutely love about blogging is the fact that you can literally write whatever you want whenever you want. It's the one space where you can be your MOST self without any judgment and say what you really feel! I broke into the blogging scene around 2014 and things look A LOT different now but I still hold some of those same characteristics about how I write dearly! Do I always write perfectly? Of course not! Am I hyper-aware of proper grammar? Of course, I am! However, I love to use this space to be my truest self because quite frankly there's nothing I can do about this crazy Louisiana southern accent that I have a and I am VERY proud of it! # LouisisanaSwag

There are soooo many different mediums to express ourselves on that sometimes it may feel a bit overwhelming but I find that if you stick to the ones that you truly love then you will see the most benefit from that platform! For instance, I will almost always have something new on my blog no matter what social media is banging or what's going on in the world! I still find happiness in my own social media because I am doing me by any means necessary! I don't make content for other people, but I make it for myself and if people love it, then that's fine, and if they don't then it's still fine! I'm still going to do exactly what makes me happy only because life is waaaay to short to do anything else! I think a lot of that mantra stems from the fact that I majored in Dance in college and we were always taught to be more honest to the craft instead of what the audience wants! When people come to watch a body of work from a choreographer, I have no IDEA what they might like nor do I have the intention to figure it out! I find that making work under that type of pressure ruins the fun and would ultimately make me feel less inclined to make work in the first place! I guess I am saying all of that just to say this: DO WHAT YOU WANT AND HOW YOU WANT AND YOU WON'T FEEL AN OUNCE OF REGRET A DAY OF YOUR LIFE!

Since life is gonna look a little different for all of us after this, I would suggest doing more of what makes you happy and less of what others make think of you or (it). I know it may be easier said than done BUT I am standing firm on what I love and what I believe in because I don't want to waste another day on things that don't matter! Honestly, I don't even know where all of this came from but just know that ya girl has been in deep thought since I have been confined to the house and this just happens to be one of them! Ha! I think that's the joy of being able to ramble around on a blog, sometimes you just don't know what you're gonna say at the moment until you're done writing! Anyways, what have you guys been thinking about since being in the house? Got any new hobbies? Watching something on Netflix? Let me know in the comments down below! Welp, that's all I gotta say for now! See you guys around!

Always Living and Forever Learning,
