What's in a name?

What's in a name? That which we call a blog by any other name would read as sweet.
No, I'm not writing about gentlemen's suit fashion.

So what exactly is being taken by the lapels? My Life!

This foxy woman right here, Miss Maya Angelou, spoke the words I live by.
It was one of those cases when you're rolling through life doing your own thing, and you happen upon that quote that just about wraps it up. 

" Life loves to be taken by the lapels and told, I'm with you kid. Let's go."

What does that mean? Don't wait for something to happen to you. Go make something happen!
That's how I get through each day, that's how I'll be surviving the next 3 years of college, and the rest of my life. I'm a big adventure person. I'm a go getter. 
It took starting this blog to even find Maya's other quote. I can think of no better way to live.

“I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch. You've got to go out and kick ass.”








Welcome Welcome

They told me not to try to sound like a blogger,
if I made it past finding a name and getting set up.

I guess to introduce myself, my name is Phoebe. Hey there!


I'm yet another college girl blogging her way to success, writing her own road map and all that jazz. I'm studying Advertising, any day now you'll be seeing my brilliant commercials playing between your sitcoms. I guess this blog will be another test for me. If I can sell my fascinating daily adventures, I can sell anything.
Right now, I'm working at an awesome boutique in my city, they keep voting it #1, so I guess they agree with me that it's the best! Not the best idea working in a clothing store while trying to save money for trips, but I make it work.  I'm currently trying to travel as often as possible. Granted I've only flown once, it was an incredible trip, and I'm itching for my next trip this summer! I want to see everything. Which means I'm also trying to manage money and time.
Hopefully keeping up with things on this blog will help me get where I'm going. Who knows, maybe someone important will see this someday and offer me my dream job. Or I'll say something brilliant that inspires someone else to follow their own wild and exciting undertakings. For now, I'm just glad to have readers like you!

Thanks for stopping by!
Adventure on!
