Welcome to my blog!
WOW! I’m really doing this. I can’t believe I’m actually going to try blogging, I mean I can but it’s kind of a trip. I’m trying this new thing where I think about doing something and just go for it, especially when it’s relatively easy to do. I doubt I could do the same when it comes to thinking about going to Dubai but this only required a laptop and the internet.
Whatever happens, happens. Whether this is something that turns into a success or business or is my own personal online diary, I just want to stop psyching myself out things out of fear that no one will like it or that I’m not good at it.
I haven’t told anyone in my life that I’m starting this. One day in my little notebook I wrote start a blog and this is me acting on it. I guess the best place to start this is by introducing myself.
My name is Lauren, I’m 36 years old, I live in Chicago, I work in Tech, and I’m single.
Some things I love:
- Books
- Coffee
- Travel
- Food
- Gaming
- Tech
- Anime
I’ve been wanting to start being more creative since traveling to Europe last year (April – May 2024). Then later in the year (Oct 2024) I received my mental health diagnosis. We will call it a working diagnosis because I have some doubts while it does explain a lot. I do want to talk more about that in a future post.
I’m trying to figure out this content creation thing as well. Here’s what I’m thinking (please let me know if this sounds crazy)….. I’m going to create a blog post (that will be my long form writing. My blog post will also be my long form video, I’ll just speak it out and cross-post on any sites that allow long form. From there, I will make a shortened/medium form written and video post. This will be cross-posted to everything. From there short form which are like teasers and will link to longer form stuff…..idk we’ll figure it out.
Anyway I’ve run out of steam, I probably should have done this on a day off when I wasn’t mentally exhausted already lol. I hope you have enjoyed getting to know me so far. I look forward to sharing more about myself and chronicalling my journey for anyone that wants to read about any part of my life. Oh yeah, I have no niche so I’m just going to write about everything. There may be posts about travel, there may be posts about books, etc etc. It does worry me when you think about growth but honestly I just want to be myself and I kind of lack the focus required to niche down. So I hope you find something you enjoy about my blog whether you like my vibe or occasionally touching on a topic you are interested in.
Let’s Chat Soon!
Lauren AKA Lolo
