And So, A New Blog Is Born

Hey Hey, its Kayy :)

How is everyone?  I hope you're all well, I'm not entirely sure how to start my first post, but I guess I can tell you about the blog, a little About Me is in the sidebar to the right :)

EDIT: I just saw there is NOT an about me at the sidebar, but I'm working on it :)

So, this here is my blog, inspired by an absolutely wonderful magazine that goes by the name, Artful Blogging. I saw it for sale on a magazine rack at a local shop, Benjamin Franklin Crafts. I was picking up some wet media paper, since I want to experiment with painting and mixed media and such, which is going pretty OK, but that's another post, ha ha.

I've started SO many blogs before, but always felt it would never work out because I don't always have something to blog about, or I just get lazy, but that will change.

So, by the time I reach page 36 of this magazine, I've read about the peoples blogs, and what stood out to me most was the Creative Everyday Challenge by Leah Kolidas.

Let me rant off on a different but related subject for a second here. I don't like starting in the middle of a sequence, which I think is pretty common. I don't want to read a book in a series if I haven't read what's before it first, even if the previous stories aren't needed to get the book, which is pretty expected of most people. I don't like joining a game when its already started, or a new game in round 3, I don't like watching a series of a show, leaving it for a while, and picking it back up, no, I'd rather restart ( this goes for things like anime, T.V. series are different.) So, now that really long rant is over, I'll get back into how it relates to this, this, what is this? an article? a post? I'm not too great with terms.

Anyways, so what I'm saying is I'd feel awkward joining in this challenge now that's half-way through the year, because I'm usually that strict about it, whatever it is.

BUT!

ON this very special page, number 36 of Artful Blogging, the issue of May/June/July 2009,  in the section where Leah answers Q's, has made me want to start a blog, about discovering art and art journaling and her Creative Everyday Challenge. I know it's now 2011, but I hope I may still be able to join the Creative Everyday Challenge, I'm actually going to go visit this site at the moment... be right back (by the way, I don't text talk to much, but I do like to use smileys [: )

and...  its still there! This makes me so very happy, I know what I'm doing after I publish this :D

And about how I was having a hard time keeping blogs before, I think ill be able to now. I'll be finishing school this week and will have lots more time to do it this summer, and more time to create and such. I may make a puppy corner of the blog for the raising of my puppy that i will be getting in about 2 weeks. (not that the page or whatnot will be specifically called Puppy Corner, although it might, I'm not even sure I can make pages in this blog, I've yet to figure out everything about Blogger) 

EDIT: I just checked out categories and pages and whatnot, I will not be having a page for the whole puppy thing, if anyone knows how to sort posts into like categories, thatd be nice :)

So, that's about all I have to say about this blog at the moment, I'm sure there will be another post or something about it, but maybe not. It all depends on if I remember something I wanted to add (which I might just edit, but I might make a new post too, ya never know) I think i might have an upcoming post about ideas on what to add to the blog, suggestions would actually be loved so very much, I believe I have an email me thing at the top or right of the blog, but if not, my email is soandsosblog@hotmail.com 

EDIT: No, there is no email me thing, but there is a bar under my header that lets you submit your email on notifications of posts I guess, I donut know how it all works yet.

I also have posts coming up about drawings and such and yadda yadda, you'll just have to read them :)
