Blog Fun

I never imagined what my little blog could turn into! It's been such a fun and creative outlet for me! Not only that, it has provided me with multiple opportunities to meet and make new friends who I instantly have something in common with. 

Here's a collection of snapshots that I've gathered of blogging events and friends I've made all through blogging! I've posted the most current at the top and will continue to add pictures as more blog events happen and even more friends are made! Here's to blogging! 

“Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, ‘What! You too? I thought I was the only one.’”
― C.S. Lewis

This is my very first time meeting up with a fellow Blogger from Los Angeles! I've never done any internet dating, but I'm guessing it felt a little similar as this did! Ashlina and I have been hanging out and going to Blogger and design events ever since! Thanks Twitter!
