the pressure of the first blog.

I've been avoiding writing my very first blog just because there is soo much pressure to get it perfect. So I figured I'll just dive into it as if this is my 29th post. What's funny is, I've had several blog-worthy topics which is what made me create one to begin with. And since then, several more blog-worthy topics come up and the only thing standing between me and creating those juicy topics is this stress and anxiety of creating the best first post.

So, here it goes .. my name is Angela. I just turned 23 years old. I recently graduated from The University of Texas at San Antonio with a degree in Criminal Justice studies. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to land the amazing job you're promised after doing everything the right way by going to school every year of your life -- but until then I have had the perfect little college job that's still taking care of me today.

I've had a little blog before but with work and school at the time, I managed to neglect it -- so here I am trying to salvage my inner-Carrie Bradshaw. [Why not, with all this free time nowadays?] I still haven't figured out why I want a blog. There are soo many beautiful passionate blogs about weight-loss journeys, fashion, and life changing movements to where I almost feel a little silly trying to make this blog happen, but while I don't have an amazing story to tell, making it through every single day of my life that's full of ups, downs, and a whole lot more -- well that's a hell of journey if you ask me. I would also like to add I am pretty passionate and amazing, too. [Sometimes.] My attempt at this blog will just be me trying my best to document all my coming-to-jesus moments and all those moments where I stop and ask myself, "Is this real life?" 

Does all this suffice up to have my own blog? I mean.. everyone comes to me dying to know what's going on in my always dramatic life or when they need advice for theirs? Why not write this all down, and when they pop into my life to get the 411 -- I send them this link? Plus, I'm full of wise cracks so there's gotta be some appeal to my little blog. Did I mention I've been obsessed with Sex and the City since I was in the 7th grade? Doesn't that say something? 

Stay tuned, I'll win you over -- I always do.
