Hello! Welcome to my blog & please stay a while :)
Where to start…
I am Melissa. I am 23 years old, 24 this July & I live in Cleveland, Ohio. In true post grad fashion, I am living at home and desperately searching for a job and a place of my own. But there's more to me than that...
I am a girl who above all loves my friends; I am a shopaholic, lover of books, music and food; I have a love for baking and am a wannabe goddess in the kitchen (someday I hope to drop that wannabe); I am a musical star in the car & shower; I am a coffee addict; I am a lover of sports & all things Cleveland; I love to travel, take pictures of EVERYTHING, and reminisce; I love being crafty; I am a wannabe fashionista with a lot to learn; I am a chronic F.R.I.E.N.D.S & movie quoter (WARNING: you WILL see this happen in my posts); I L.O.V.E. wine; I truly believe that Iove is all you need & that the little things in life are the ones worth living for; I am free spirit & a cat lover, and also a bit random; My interests are wide and ranging….
OH and I love to talk...especially about anything mentioned on this page!
I am an Ohio University alumni (Go Bobcats!!) & I am teacher- or will be when some school decides to hire me! I am licensed to teach pre-kindergarten to fifth grade. I have always wanted to be a teacher and love being in the classroom. Teaching is definitely a passion of mine, however I have infinitely many interests and picking just one thing to do with my one life seems silly.
Whenever I talk about my hopes and dreams I feel like Aldys from Never Been Kissed…maybe you all haven’t seen this flick, or don’t remember the quote… Let me refresh:
"I want to be a professor of medieval literature. I want to be a weekend flautist. I want to be a potter. I want to be a painter. I want to be an architect, and I want to go to northwestern."
-Leelee Sobieski as Aldys Martin
I feel ya girlfriend! This quote is so me…
I want to be a photographer, writer, fashion designer, interior decorator, artist, Cleveland Browns cheerleader {not kidding…and we don’t even have cheerleaders… dream big, girl! Yes, I just referred to myself as "girl"} & incidentally, I also want to be the Browns offensive coordinator {because I so could do a better job}, movie casting director for my favorite books {so no more of them get ruined for me once they hit the big screen, ahem Twilight}, I wanna be a ballerina, a chef, a wife & mother… seriously the list could go on & on…
I feel that this information is useful to know when you’re reading my blog because it helps explain the randomness. These are a few of the many things that inspire me! When I started my blog I wasn’t sure what to focus the content on. I decided that I couldn’t just pick one thing and hence my random blog was born :) How realistic are my dreams? Who knows... but join me as I explore the possibilities, even if it is just for personal amusement!
XoXo
