Hi, I'm V and I am 31 years old.
I just wanted to get that out of the way because if I didn't say it, I bet you would guess I was under 14 by what I'm about to post. The truth is, I just know who I am, what I like, and often use language that a child would to describe myself when I write awkward things like "introduction posts."
I am a weird, empathetic, fat, silly, anxious, loud, foodie who is plant-based & gluten-free. I watch too much YouTube and have too many favourite animals (tigers, bats, chameleons, rats, goats, cats, and frogs). I like partly cloudy days, warm pizza, dancing all night, camping under the stars, and making people feel comfortable with me (just as much as I like making people think, might I add).
Me, at my v best
When I am having a conversation with someone, I have been told time and time again that they feel I am right there with them and that's something I really strive for. I am friendly when I'm out and about in the world and because of that strangers give me a lot of compliments, start many deep conversations with me, and even give me money sometimes (no, really). I feel things too deeply so being open can be bad sometimes, but I just want people to know that they matter. I want people to have someone look them in the eye and really hear them, you know? Okay, I'm expanding on that too much.
I am an adult student attending a local community college and I am loving marketing, travel writing, ethics, and culture. My course load has taught me that I value diversity and inclusivity. My goals once I graduate are to work for a nonprofit that aligns with my values and to be in a position I can stretch my creative "wings" in.
I reference pop culture (lately it has been Vines - RIP Vine) an obscene amount and long for a group of like-minded people who would get those references.
I am all for equity, effectiveness, and efficiency... though you wouldn't know that by this post.
It's just hard to talk about yourself, you know? Especially in a linear, one-dimensional way because it's just not how humans are.
So, here I am. This is me.
I have no set plan or goal for this blog. I will resteem more often than anything else as I have a lot of family-in-law and a husband (

Take care of yourself and then, if you have the time and the energy, take care of someone else a little bit too!
