What's public and what's private?


It can be quite difficult to decide what is appropriate to be shared and when it is appropriate to share it. Maybe my focus is already changing to random thought. Today, I thought, what if I'm completely overweight, but have no idea? What if people really look at me like, hmm, she shouldn't be eating that baklava from Tutt Cafe in Brooklyn Heights (which is usually amazing except for on the rare occasion that the gentleman that usually makes it is away, which I suspect he was two weeks ago). So, I really thought, man, what if I am? How much room am I taking up in this chair? More than I should, I suspect. I mean, I wear the skinny jeans, but I fill those bitches out, especially in the hips. But, then it occurred to me. My sister recently purchased me a pair of jeans (of which I still owe her some cash) that are the exact same jeans I stole from my roommate. Same exact style, wash, and, most importantly, size. When this occurred to me, I felt relieved. She's like,  in good shape and super beautiful. Note, these words 'super beautiful' are not mine, but the words of several men whom have met her. I mean, just 'cause we wear the same jeans (see photo) doesn't mean I look super beauitful in them, but I certainly try, rather I go for that seventies mom look. Sometimes good, sometimes horribly awful, just like this blog.
By the way, should you like the jeans, they are by Earnest Sewn, the Whiley.

Now I know what to write about.


I don't know why it didn't come to me sooner. Alright, yes I do. The answer was under my nose, and I have a strong tendency to avoid easy answers, even if they are indeed the best answers. I'm 24 years old and a little, well, I'm me (see outdated photo). I've cleaned Motel 8 hotel rooms, lived in a small 'sustainable' community on the top of a plateau in Washington, been to Fashion School, experienced Manhattan and Brooklyn, been to Europe, lived with roommates, quit my job without a replacement, partied well into the morning and driven across the country, rather, half way across, rather half way around or is it a quarter? Needless to say, I've done some stuff, but I have a lot more to do and I'm still figuring out what fits and what doesn't. So, this is my focus. This is what I have to say. Maybe you're figuring out where you fit, maybe you already know, maybe this will just be a bit of amusement in between writing reports at the office, we'll see. I'll keep you posted on what I'm doing, why, and where I hope to go. Medium Style will be a bit of self affirmation for me, and maybe a little inspiration for you.
*note: I almost never edit these posts, just in case they ever seem scrambled or confusing, its simply because this is the process I have chosen to use for this blog. No editing, almost, ever.

getting organized.

first things first. i'm going to start cleaning this blog up. goal #1: start using caps and proper punctuation. goal #2. always use the same font. i've decided on the Trebuchet font. Here I will start with proper punctuation.
