EEEEEEEKK!

So here it goes.. 

my first post! 

Let's be HONEST here folks, I am extremely nervous to start blogging. I have never done anything like this before but as I read more and more blogs I am falling in love with the blogging community. I would like to thank my friend Katherine for introducing me to and helping me begin to understand the wonderful world that I am hoping to become very involved in. I am going to consider this a lifestyle blog. Which will include my adventures I am going to begin to take in order to find some more of myself away from softball and to embrace the world around me. 

To clue everyone in on the "softball world" that I consider myself sucked into for the last 12 years of my life, it gives you minimal time to do ANYTHING else. Since the time I was nine, I was dedicating all of my free time to athletics hoping to achieve my dream of playing in college. While I was fortunate enough to grow up in New York, right near NYC ((having the ability at my finger tips to experience some of the most intriguing sights in the country)) I did not have much time to run with this opportunity. I don't have other hobbies or for that matter even know my other interests. Now that softball is coming to end for me, I hope to take the most important lessons, the great memories, and the love that it gave me and carry it into the new experiences I am going to have- beginning to learn as much as I can along the way.
