Hiya, Everyone!

Hey guys! My name is Megan & I'm from the Chicago area. I'm just a typical 20 something girl that's trying to find her way in life. This is my first blog, so please bear with me as I try to figure this scene out. I've been meaning to start a blog for years now, but didn't have the nerve to actually do it. I had an online diary years ago, but it was nothing like this. Also, my only experience with html was when I tinkered around with Myspace back in the day. Ha, Myspace.

Anyway, I'm thinking that this will just be a lifestyle blog of sorts. Some place where I can just talk about my varied interests & what's going on with my life. I'm not sure how interesting this will end up being, but I'd like a place where I can just be myself.

I'm a huge sports fan. Fanatical football fan. I'm the biggest Notre Dame fan you will ever meet & I've watched every play of every game of theirs since I was 10 years old. Yes, I do have to put up with a lot of flack because of that. The Patriots & Texans are my NFL teams. As far as the Bears go, I left them with Thomas Jones.

I took this pic at the 2010 ND Blue & Gold game. Look at me, trying to be artistic.

I also love the typical girly stuff like fashion, makeup & hair. I love getting dressed up & putting together outfits. I'm hoping to do daily outfit posts... well, maybe not daily. I dabble in some crafting from time to time too & I'm excited to start posting some tutorials. I've turned into a big bargain shopper these past few years & I love finding deals. I'm one of those girls that can happily spend hours in T.J. Maxx digging through all the goods to find a hidden treasure.

I got these Hunter Wellies on deep discount at 6pm.com. LOVE 6pm for shoes.

Fitness is a major part of life. I workout 5-7 times a week. It is my best stress reliever. I am not one of those girls that is afraid of weights. I love weights! I also really like being outdoors & just exploring. Whether that means nature walks, hikes through forest preserves or canoeing.


This was on one of my canoeing trips. Look at all that nature.

I hate writing first posts because I never know what to say, but I hope you'll find this place interesting. Someone, anyone, haha.
