Entry #3 Social Media Life

It is quite strange these days how social media works, with all the "likes" and selfies and "favorites".  After listening to this audio of "Status Update", there were some things that I definitely had a reaction to and others not so much.

I never really thought about how social media could factor everyday life.  A lot of people's lives factor around social media, without it a lot of people would not be nearly as connected to the everyday factors of real life.

For example, my best friend.  Without social media no one would really know how unique and how amazing my friendship with Tiana would be.  I like to make sure the world knows of my best friend of 12 years and how much I cherish it!

The only thing that really spoke to me was that, you do not absolutely HAVE to comment or like your closest friends pictures.  I think of it as, we all do it because we want to and we want to show our friends some love.  I do not have to like and share Tiana's photos, but I do choose to since she is my best friend and she deserves the love. 

Thanks for reading!!
Sincerely,
Megan :)

Entry #2 Girly Road Trip

Since as long I could remember I have always wanted to get away from the world for a weekend, just to have some fun with the girls!  About six months ago, my friends Sammi, Amanda and I decided to take that chance and go on a road trip to California!

The drive was nothing but fun and loud.  We were jamming out to old school hip hop songs and just singing the ENTIRE trip there, kind of surprised that we still had our voices after we arrived to our camp site.

We decided to stay at the campsite San Diego KOA.  We thought it would be interesting to try and camp out on our own.  The image below is what our camp site looked like.  The mornings were humid and pretty chilly but at night the weather was absolutely perfect.

During this trip we went to Coronado Beach and Mission Beach.  Coronado was relaxing and just had a blast hanging out in the California sun.  Mission Beach we were walking around, talked to some really cool people.  The stores were so cool and the area was just full of fun and excitement and positivity.  Did I mention my favorite part about this whole trip?  WE WENT TO THE ZOO!

The San Diego Zoo was amazing!  All kinds of school exhibits and of course one of my favorites is seeing the elephants!  Also got a picture with a giraffe, it toke a couple takes but close enough (Sammi, Me, and Amanda).  After going to the beaches and going to the zoo, it was a pretty great adventure, especially with my girls!  More adventures like this one will definitely be coming up soon.

Entry #1 Relam of Bloggers

A blog?  What is a blog?  Something I am not quite used to that's for sure!  A blog as people know is a website that's constantly updated with articles, stories and other neat stuff!  Quite a bit of people seemed to be really intrigued with them, I never really understood until recently. 




There are some blogs that do not really seem to get a good hold of my attention.  For example, The Belmont Club is a blog where it focuses on history and it will provide links that go with whatever the post's purpose is.  Personally, I am already not a huge history fan so I would lose interest fairly quickly.

There is another blog that I really do enjoy!  This blog is known as Decor8 and it is something that is really fun to look through!  This blog talks about new trendy stuff for houses, there are some pieces for helpful tips and business tips and more!  

A blog that really caught my eye was Post Secrets.  The image above is an example of what you are going to see throughout the whole website.  Basically you write a secret on one side of a post card and you can send it to the website, and no one will even know it is your secret.  I like the idea of being able to express your thoughts without putting a face to it, it keeps the reader more interested and full of curiosity. 




Blogs are quite interesting to read, I might read them more often! Happy Blogging!
