Hello to everyone who may happen upon this blog! My name is Sara and I am one of 2 awesome, nerdy and maybe slightly dorkish women that will be posting to this blog. My friend Juli and I have decided that we needed a place to vent, laugh, creep out and potentially scar people for life. No, really, we just want a place to collaborate our thoughts in one somewhat organized place and hope to bring... something.. to someone.. someday.
So a little about me. Right now I am 27 and staying in Dahlonega, Georgia. I was born in Worth, IL which technically allows me to say I grew up in Chicago. I moved to Fort Myers, Florida when I was 17 and have resided there since about 2 and a half weeks ago when my ex boyfriend + friend wanted to hang out with me for a while. I decided to give it a shot since my current relationship didn't seem to be headed towards anywhere on the "commitment" side, so I took my chances. Jacob (the man I am staying with) has been a huge part of my life for the past 5 years and has taken my heart with him everywhere he goes. He has me. And I have him. Again. Hopefully for good this time!
So that aside, I love arts and crafts and most importantly music. I won't say I am entirely a diverse person when it comes to music, nor would I say that I am really up-to-date and knowledgeable in the music scenes. But I love what I love in my personal music world and it is indeed what gets me by without going completely insane. Without the music that I hold close, I don't know where I'd be right now. I'm sure most of you can relate to that.
I work as a medical transcriptionist and am hired as an independent contractor. That basically means I do not get paid a lot but I can keep my own hours of my choice and take off whenever I want to as long as I let the company know ahead of time so they can fill my slots if possible. That leaves me feeling awesome and unpressured but slightly broke.
I also want to point out that while I may sound well-worded I typo a lot and most of it is on purpose for lack of better vocabulary or just the spur-of-the-moment will to want to make up a word that sounds like I know what I'm talking about.
So with all of that, that's me in a nutshell. I will be posting fashion and art things and lots of dark things, too. Video games, art, music, fashion, make-up and of course nail art because I'm a freak and I'm horrible at it but I'm completely obsessed anyhow with it. That's the basics of what my topics will be. This is meant to just be a whatever is on our mind blog.
Oh I should also mention that I had weight loss surgery. I had a vertical sleeve gastrectomy, which basically means they cut off 85% of my stomach and I am left with a "sleeve" shaped stomach. IT DOES NOT MEAN I HAVE SOMETHING ON MY STOMACH. This is not a foreign object or a band or anything like that. They literally took out 85% of my stomach from my body. So I will also post things about this. Currently I am closing in on 2 months post operation. August 27th will be my 2 month surgerversary. Yep. That's what we call it.
To be able to better recognize who is posting what, we will always sign our posts with our name. I shouldn't have to point that out but some may be wondering.
<3 Sara
