The Obligatory "Why I'm doing this" Post

I never realized I was a fickle person until I applied for my new apartment. After mice and leaks in my first home-away-from-my-parents-home, I decided it was time for an upgrade. So when I handed in the cheque to secure the new Chez Mandy, naturally the first place I went was Pinterest! And boy, did they have all the ideas under the sun. Time moves quickly in the realm of Pinterest, and all of a sudden, you realize it's 4 a.m. on a Tuesday morning.

As I scrolled through my e-vision board, however, I saw all the makeup techniques that I had been feverishly pinning just a few weeks before, and I remembered that makeup had been my obsession for months until the idea of DIY'ing a new apartment surpassed the joy makeup once brought me!

And before that, it was nails. 

And before that, it was stand up comedy.

So, I decided to write a stupid blog to show someone what I spend my time doing, should the cops ever ask. And, until I get bored, that thing I'm spending my time doing is DIY baby! Come along for the ride as I learn the do's and are-you-kiddings-?! of movin' on up.
