Introduction

I figured it is only proper to introduce myself and tell you what this blog is going to be about. I want to start off by saying that this is my first blog - I have never blogged before or even spent much time on anyone else's blog. Although things may be rough in the beginning, I am sure I will get the hang of it soon enough.  

So, you may be wondering, why did you start this blog? That brings me to my introduction. I am 23 and just about to graduate university. I have one more course to take this summer and then I graduate in the fall! After being in university for six years, I am thrilled to be almost done. But, up until this point, I never considered all the free time I would have once I finished university. I finished my courses for this term on Monday, and although I work full-time in the health care field during the week, when I come home, I now have free time. I quickly realized I need some new hobbies, fast. So after a frantic google search, it suggested that I start a blog and I figured I might as well give it a shot. 

Other interesting (or not so interesting) facts about myself:

1) I live with my boyfriend in Halifax, NS. We are high school sweethearts and have been together now for seven years.

2) I have two brothers and a sister, three nephews and a niece.

3) My interests include hiking, camping, photography, cooking, reading etc.

4) The past year I have worked full-time as well as went to school full-time. The past four months I have taught as a university instructor. How I accomplished this I will save for another post.

5) I used to go to the National Ballet School of Canada when I was younger. 

That is enough about me for now. If you want to know more, you will have to keep reading my posts J. 

So finally, what am I going to talk about in my blog? Well, that is a good question. Since I am transitioning from the student world to the adult world, I thought I would share some of my experiences; I am sure many others are going through some of the same things. I will also be reviewing books, recipes, restaurants, vacations etc. Recently we went on a weekend getaway and did not have the most positive experience, and when I tried to leave a review, I found that there was no place to leave it. Now that I have my own blog, I can share my experiences, and hopefully save people a few negative experiences.

That is all for now!
