First post…first post…If only I had any idea how to start these things. I just spent far too long trying to come up with a creative title and lost everything I wanted to write about!
Click on “Who Am I?” for an introduction.
Why this website?
I started this website because I have always felt that I was a very scattered person. I can never seem to fit everything I do into one box. I’ve changed my Instagram theme at least six times because I just couldn’t stick with one thing I wanted to post about. While my Instagram dilemma is admittedly not a real problem, it was still a frustrating experience to feel like I needed six different accounts to display all of the different things about me that I focus on and put my heart into. I love to do crafts, I love to cook, I love to travel, I love to sing, I love to take pictures, I have a passion for animals, I love to read, I love to write, and many many many more things. Even though I have only just begun to learn how to cook, I haven’t done much traveling, I’m pretty bad a singing, I don’t have a good camera, I don’t have pets of my own, I’m two shelves behind on my reading list, and I haven’t written something creative in months, I still want to feel like I have one place to put my thoughts and my pictures and my creations. I want this to be my wonky box that I can finally put everything into.
My brother would much prefer it if I phrased it as “gradually uploading my consciousness to the internet for the eventuality that humans will figure out how to put me inside a robot body to live forever.”
10 Quirks About Me
- My favorite tea is Red Rose and I take it the English way with milk and sugar. I much prefer tea to coffee.
- I both snore and drool while I sleep (it’s a fun time). I’ve woken myself up with my own snoring before. I only drool when I sleep on my left side.
- In my life I’ve wanted to be a veterinarian, a coroner, a cryptographer for the military, a surgeon, an anesthesiologist, a physician, a high level college math professor, a pharmacist, a professional artist, an app developer, and a database administrator in that order.
- I am double jointed in both of my shoulders and elbows, though I am the only one of my siblings that does not have double jointed thumbs.
- The second and third toes on both of my feet are webbed.
- I’ve had several prophetic dreams in my life.
- I hid two ball pythons and a fat tailed gecko under my bed for over a year without anyone ever knowing.
- I decided about a year ago to stop removing my body hair and I will never go back.
- I was placed in a special advanced math program starting when I was 11 and continuing through high school. I was offered to skip 8th grade and go right to high school, which my parents declined.
- I am ambidextrous. I favor my left hand for tasks requiring control while I favor my right hand for tasks requiring strength.
Goals for this website
As I get this website up and running I hope to add a few more things and evolve it further into its own place that I would enjoy visiting. I want to document the road trip I plan to take with my significant other, David, who also plans to start a blog in the form of a YouTube channel. When that has concluded, we plan to start a fully self sufficient homestead wherever we find is most beautiful in the country and I plan to document how we set it up and the many other things involved in that challenge. I also want to set up a pages for photography, creative writing, and ASMR videos that I hope to pick back up on.
Things to sell
I plan on creating TONS of items along the way which I will be selling here. The rough list includes:
- paintings (originals and prints)
- drawings (originals and prints)
- stickers
- knitting or crochet patterns I design
- cross stitch or embroidery originals
- custom items in all categories
I plan on also adding the option for a monthly paid subscription to get goodies I have yet to decide on. Some ideas I have include:
- monthly sticker pack (depending on how expensive this is)
- access to one to two vlog posts each month
- discounts on custom items
- exclusive painting or drawing originals/prints
- access to additional exclusive ASMR videos
- video tutorials/paint along videos/monthly video hangouts
