About Me

Hi there, I'm Lauren. 
I'm so happy that you're stopping by! 

I am a Maryland girl born and raised, even though I am dreaming of someday living on the west coast. California is where I hope to end up at some point in my life (fingers crossed!).

I can't complain about my hometown though since it is right in the middle of our three most beautiful cities. Thirty minutes from Annapolis, Baltimore and Washington DC, you can't beat that! 

For the time being I am currently living in Salisbury, MD where I am attending Salisbury University. I am a Graphic design/photography major and Marketing minor, who dabbles in all aspects of art. 

  

I am lucky enough to be apart of two major organizations on my campus. 

I joined the sorority Zeta Tau Alpha in the spring of 2012 and was elected the fraternity Sigma Tau Gammas White Rose in the spring of 2013. Being apart of these two fantastic groups of people and our Greek community have changed my life, for the better, in more ways than I can explain. 

I'm still trying to find my way in this world and what my passions truly are. I have no idea what I want to do with my life. All I know is that whatever my big girl job turns out to be I hope it involves my love for art and traveling. 

Some of my Favorite Things.

I absolutely love to travel even though I haven't been to many places. The dream is to someday travel all over with my man by my side and see everything this world has to offer. This past summer I traveled to Italy and it was my first time out of the states. Now I am completely hooked!

I have a strong passion for photography. I mainly like to photograph nature and landscapes. So of course, Instagram is my main go to social media.
If i could get a major in arts and crafts I would. I always seem to get lost in whatever project I'm working on. Being in a sorority definitely helps my crafting addiction!

I like to think that I'm organized because I make lists about everything but lets be honest I am far from it.
I am a netflix-a-holic and watch too many television shows for my own good. 

I have an obsession with mermaids, the sea, anything beachy and anything teal. 
I'm a summer baby so naturally summertime is my favorite time of the year. If I could i would spend everyday with my toes dug into some sand, soaking in the sunshine. 

My love for animals is unreal. Kitty's, zebras and peacocks are my faves, but if I could I would adopt and save them all!

The Loves of my Life.

Even though I don't show my love and how much I care as often as I should (I'm too hung up on being independent at the moment) my mom is my rock. She has given up a lot for me and has always been there through my ups and downs no matter what. She is truly the strongest woman I've ever met. I could never thank her enough for all she has done.
I am so lucky to have my boyfriend Karl in my life right now. It has almost been a year and wow did time fly by! I don't know what I would do without him. He is honestly my best friend and the best support system I've ever had. I know I can go to him with whatever is on my mind. He is always inspiring me to become a better me and is always encouraging me to follow my dreams. I thought I knew what love was before, but I can tell you now that was nothing compared to the way I feel about him.

The other man in my life is a spastic kitten named Mogli (yes from the jungle book), but we call him Mo for short. He has a mind of his own and is so wild. You can usually find him running around the house catching bugs or attacking someones feet. He means the world to me and I will never regret the day my boyfriend and I saved this little critter.

 

The Purpose Behind the Blog. 

Here you will find anything that grabs my attention whether it is my attempt to cook a meal, creating a cute little project I find on Pinterest, or simply sharing what's on my mind and what had inspired me that day. 
It's a mash-up of whatever adventure my life stumbles into. I want to share as much as I can with you.
The reason I blog is because I am learning to be brave with my life and I'm hoping this blog will help me do just that. I'm taking it day by day and seeing what journey unfolds along the way. 
I hope I can inspire you and lift your spirits every time you visit my page.
