Why This Blog Exists

This is my fourth attempt at a blog.

And I put it off, I swear. I declared that I had no time, that I wasn’t a good enough writer, but most importantly that I didn’t know what to write about. But then Carly of The College Prepster, one of my favorite bloggers ever, posted a list of 50 Ideas for Blog Posts and I couldn’t say no.

Without further ado… hi, my name is Hannah, and I look like this.

#50 on Carly’s list says to tell the story of why you started your blog and I figured this would be the perfect introduction post. I’m a high school senior and recently I started a daily series on my Instagram (@hannah_withacamera) called #theseniorchronicles and I’m currently 60 days in. I’m actually super impressed with myself that I’ve kept it up for this long. This blog is partly for myself, to look back on, and partly because I look up to bloggers like Carly and every other one that I have an email subscription to (I think I’m at 40+ and the number grows daily).

This blog is hopefully going to be a great creative outlet for me, both in writing and in photography, and I aim to post at least one article each week. I want this blog not to be a hassle that I feel like I have to post on, but something that I look forward to writing, something that sparks a constant interest in me to stay creative and keep making inspiring things, both for me and for others.

Wish me luck.
