Blogging: My Third Job

I quite possibly could be the worst blogger on the planet - I broke every cardinal rule of blogging. First, I created a blog (about a month ago) enticing you to read about the goings-on in my life which, to your knowledge, are still non-existent. I have completely ignored this project (all the more reason why I shouldn't have children).

Secondly, the only people who currently follow my blog are my best friends who I talk to bascially everyday. So, what's the point in blogging about what I just emailed them about? I suppose I could attach photos for them as a supplement to our conversation? That would be a real cliffhanger.

So here's my attempt at expanding my list of followers. Tune in if you're interested, but I won't twist your arm.

I promise that I'll be better at blogging, in fact, I will post tonight the juicy details of my newest life happening (...sit back down, it's not what you think!). Here's what it is: I got a job! So now, instead of eating, praying and advertising, I eat, pray that I have enough time for sleep, advertise and eat (again) en route to my second job.

Things can only get better for this blog - its neglection is over!

the best journey is one without a road

As an imaginative child, I told my parents I wanted to be an astronaut. The next day, I wanted to be the first female president of the United States. And the next day I wanted to be an oceanographer. My dreams were shortly crushed when I discovered my fear of heights, my birth country restrictions and my dislike of scuba gear.

Ten years later, what am I doing? Well, I just graduated and I advertise. The adventures associated with this blog perfectly parallel the adventures in my new stage of life: my career. So I ask you to stick with me as I learn the intricacies of blogging coupled with the learning curve of the agency world.

I eat, pray and advertise and this is my personal journey to my next stop. I have no idea where I'll end up, but I suppose that's the best kind of trip.
