| It's me! At Capilano Suspension Bridge Park last summer. |
I suppose I should start by telling you a bit about myself...my name is Shayla and as of this post, I'm in my late twenties. I have many interests and hobbies, but some of the more prevalent ones lately include:
- motorcycling
- Warhammer (if you don't know what this is, check out this website)
- baking
- cooking (especially Mexican)
- makeup artistry (beauty makeup and special effects)
- television
- target shooting
- traveling
- exercise/health

I've had a lot of great life experiences that have made me who I am. I'm university educated, have lived abroad (I spent a year in Mexico in high school between grades 11 and 12) and am fiercely independent. I enjoy challenging myself and learning new things, especially languages - in addition to English, I speak French and Spanish, and a wee bit of Italian.
I currently live in one of the larger cities in Alberta, and will be moving to a smaller suburb at the end of April. Most people think it's kind of an odd move, but I'm moving in with my boyfriend, so it's a good thing in that respect, and makes sense for me/us at this point. Besides the obvious, I'm hoping that once I'm settled and not bouncing back and forth between his place and mine, I'll be able to focus more on my hobbies (notably the exercise/health part of things). Which is where the blogging thing comes into play...
So that's the long and short of it. Hopefully, it tickles your fancy, and you'll stick around to hear about some of my adventures!
I'm excited to read more about your different hobbies!
ReplyDeleteMainly my excitement lies with seeing your makeup artistry. I've always found it interesting seeing the before and after pictures and the transformation process.
I'm also excited to read about any amazing cooking recipes that hopefully you'll post. I don't have much experience with Mexican cooking but it's something that I'd love to try!
I'm excited that you're excited!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure how into the makeup artistry stuff I'll get since a lot of my blogging previously was centered entirely around that. I'd like to do more with body painting, special effects, and that type of thing...but might still post about my day-to-day stuff as well.
Recipes could be fun, that's for sure! A lot of my stuff I find on the web, so it'll probably be more "link to the recipe" than posting directly...my enjoyment is in the photos I take and the actual creation process!
Yes! That's actually the part that would interest me most! Special effects are really neat to see because they can look so realistic. I can imagine how much time and effort it would take though.
DeleteI enjoy the process and the pictures the most too! I find that's more than half the fun (eating's the other half)!
