New vision, new dreams.

Here I am. January 3rd 2013.

Hello and welcome, here it is a new year and like most of us out there it is resolution time. I am 3 days late, but what the heck it pays to be fashionably late.

So to start this blog (By the way I started this blog April 2010 with high hopes and here we are almost 3 years later) Regardless, I started this blog and after a 32 month hiatus or "writers block" I'm back.

So Resolution one: like most of us out there is to lose weight. ie: work out, eat better - so on and so forth.

Resolution B (I'm not really that idiotic, but it makes me laugh when they do it in crappy comedies): More Social sites under my belt.

To elaborate. I have been an internet fiend since I first logged onto the internet. It started out with games on Cartoon Network and countless hours on NeoPets. It then moved onto the teen stages - hours and hours on MSN Messenger, Forums, Chat rooms, Nexopia, Myspace... You see what I am getting at. I find I was caught in a rut just aimlessly looking at Facebook, mind numbing stuff. "10000000 likes and I'll eat a gopher wearing a glass eye", "Share if you love grandma, "like" if you want grandma to die in flames" and the ever so popular images surfing around of dis-formed and/or abused animals and children. I really only have Facebook for event purposes and to keep in touch/stalk a couple of people. I have almost 500 Facebook friends, yet I see/talk/hangout with/say hello to on the street to about 20 of these people. - So keeping with this social media resolution I have deleted around 40 randoms I either went to highschool with or random drunk encountered at one point or another.

So to continue with this rant, I want to occupy my internet time with more useful things. A few months ago I really got back into a twitter binge so that is one step. I recently signed up for a Pintrest account and have pinned a few items. I am (Hopefully) going to Blog twice -if not more- a week and I would like to start vlogging on YouTube. Another reason social media has become one of my resolutions is that once upon a time when I was about 16 I had a live journal. I recently found it and read every single post i had entered. Boy, was I depressed. Dear younger self; no bills, no rent, no job, high school, piece of cake cry baby. So I kind of want to leave a more positive digital footprint of myself.

WHO AM I?

So my name is Emma, 25 going on 26, I currently live in Vancouver, BC with my boyfriend and our cat.

WHAT AM I HERE FOR?

This blog - I am hoping will just be a modge-podge of anything and everything. I am really into the Rockabilly/pin-up/vintage vibe right now, so I'm sure that will come into play. Maybe some event/food reviews. Maybe some recipes, maybe some Outfit of the Days, maybe some pictures of my cat in clothing - the possibilities are endless.

So I know I am not starting this with a bagillizon followers? Fans? fellow blagonis? (I'm not sure what you want to be called) so if you are like me and you stumble across this blog and find yourself reading backwards to this MY FIRST POST feel free to comment and let me know what you want.

As I get my social thumbprint out there more I will share links with you.. Might even share that old live journal.

So here is my Twitter for now - follow my owlings! @emma_meow


toodles.
