the end of the beginning.

The masthead from my second-ever blog once read: The beginning of the end. Maybe I was feeling Smashing Pumpkins-y or something, but it feels apt to begin something new with something old. To juxtapose, if you will.

As this is my first blog post, typical blog prototype says that this is the appropriate time to insert mission statement here. Bah. I'm more inclined to just start in (no introductions, no nothin') but perhaps what I'll do first is MY version of a mission statement -- the half-assed kind, my fave -- which I should in no way be held to.

1. I will try not to write a Carrie Bradshaw-esque blog. Meaning, I will try not to: dish about my bf (I have one, yes. You don't need to know all about him), wonder about the San Francisco dating scene, ask for proof of whether there are any good men left on this earth. Yes, maybe this will come up, but I will try to refrain. But if I do: cut me some slack, people. I am still a girl.

2. As an offshoot of the first statement, I will not be giving advice. I can barely handle my own life, let alone yours.

3. May begin posting my amateur-ish photos. Am hoping to improve my photography/DP skills. We'll see. Be kind.

4. Umm. Okay. I'll add on as necessary. I told you this would be half-assed.

Halfway There. My newfangled blog of sorts. Yeah. Welcome.
