The first weeks of college are all about every adult, student, adviser or even sometimes strangers asking you about your life--what you're going to do with it, how you're going to do it, and every Debbie Downer's favorite-what if you don't succeed doing it? I've only been in school three weeks (I'm attending the uuber hip but slightly under the radar Columbia College Chicago) and I've contemplated my answers to these questions multiple times. All I know is everything that I want to do is also everything that I need to do, in order for me to make my life in the longrun-worthwhile. Saying "I want to be a journalist" does not do my real list of goals justice. I want to do it all. I'm concentrating in Television Broadcast, but I don't want to be just a talking puppet reading a teleprompter. I want to grill public figures, politicians, celebrities-Soledad O'Brien style. I wanna pour my heart out in order to help hurting hearts or confused souls--like "Carrie Bradshaw". I want the entire world, as if they were part of my family, my best friend or a lover--to trust me, and I want my words, whether spoken, written, or dictated, to connect everyone to the other. By more than just a click of a button. By more than just a friend request can do. And I don't think there has anyone who has done that just yet.
Don't be fooled by my super slick introduction of myself. The title of my blog says it all. I am a hot mess! And I wake up that way everyday, it never changes. I'm classy, funky, erratic, eclectic, sweet, spicy, SASSY, humble and yet--a homebody. (Not to mention bipolar, Britney Spears obsessed, overly ambitious, an escapist...you name it). From now on it's my goal to update daily, and put effort into this blog. It's time to brand myself--show the world who I am. Whether I'm talking about food, my boyfriend, the perfect cupcake recipe, creepy construction workers, celebrities, or just daily erratic musings--every word you'll read is ME.
I hope you like her.








I will read your blog daily. And, boo to the people that doubt you will not succeed. Wait until they get to know you!
