The first post is always the hardest...

Well, I suppose since I have no idea what to write on my first blog I should at least introduce myself.  So here goes nothin...hi, I'm Shawnna.  The first picture I uploaded had to be a "skinny & pretty" picture so you would get a good first impression of me so maybe you would like me at least until you found out the truth in the next few sentences haha.  In reality...I'm not skinny, perfectly pretty, or perfect in any way.  I think that's what made me decide to start this blog in the first place.  I've never read a blog in my life until this morning in the middle of a very large rut of boredom.  The only problem is that when I went to read this supposedly "wonderful, inspiring blog" I was sadly disappointed.  It was just like every magazine article I had ever read...a success story that was glamorized and produced little flutters in your heart at how successful this person was.  My problem with the whole blog is that it's just not real.  Honestly, I know very few success stories.  The people I am around go to work everyday and come home, eat, sleep, repeat.  They aren't professional bakers, highly sought out photographers, or individuals that people want to seek out to learn their secrets of life.  In my personal opinion, the type of people I know are much more interesting than the type of person who went through a struggle and overcame it...I can't relate to them yet because I haven't done what they have yet.  I can, however, relate to someone who is STILL going on that journey to get to their goals and doesn't have an interesting tale of conquering to brag about to everyone.  Instead of rambling on about what I don't want to read about I should probably just get to the point and let you know what this blog is going to be about....me, everyday.  It's NOT going to be glammed up, it's GOING to contain some foul language and bitching, and I think people who are like me will enjoy it!  It's not a recipe go-to, it's not a fitness guide, and it's not advice on how to live a happy life....with any success it's a little bit of everything.  All this is, is my journey toward my goals whether they be related to school, my career, my love life, my weight, my talents, or just the goal of making it through a certain day without going homicidal on everyone in my immediate surroundings.  Finally getting to the end of this post...enjoy, throw in your two cents and daily bitching every once in awhile, and read my damn blog so I don't feel like I'm broadcasting to no one ;-)
