welcome!

"A year from now you will wish you have started today." - Karen Lamb

I am one of those twenty-somethings who are frantically searching for their place in the world. For the longest time now, I have planned to start a style blog. However, I've been so cautious not to create something that has been done before. In almost everything I do, I try to ask myself what has never been done? Unfortunately,  in an effort to be original, this has led to more inaction than I would have liked to. I'm not interested in posting pictures of myself, nor do I plan to post my shopping purchases. That is far from what I intend to do on this blog.

Part of my 2011 to-do list is to start a streamlined blog, something that would showcase my interests and my thoughts. I don't think I love fashion. Love is too strong a word. I cringe everytime I hear someone say "fashion" and "passion" in one sentence. The closest thing I can imagine is being inspired, and THIS does not only include fashion. I am inspired by film, tv shows, books, food, words, and travel. I've forced myself to want only one thing. But it seems like all these things pre-occupy my mind equally and simultaneously.

I am well aware of how saturated the internet has become. Among all the gazillion things I follow online, a few have stood out amongst all of them and inspired me to just go for it: Jeana Sohn, Dead Fleurette, The Simply Luxurious Life, and Lulu and Your Mom. Over the next few days, I'll try to come up with one post a day. I'm thinking slowly but surely, hoping everything will come into place. The only thing I know for sure is I want to start something now.
