Hello World!

My name is Erica. I am a 20 year old college student at the University of Texas at Austin. Writing is something I've always loved and all through high school I was a hardcore xanga-er. Writing is a great outlet and a helpful mechanism to relax, think, rant, and reflect. Nothing like reading your old posts from when you were 14 and wishing you can smack yourself upside the head for thinking your life was over because your braces are all the wrong color or cringe at what (or who!) you use to be into. On the other hand, it's also nice to read your old blogs and realize how much you have grown and the intellectual depth you had at that age (didn't know I had it in me!)

So more about myself because I'm sure you are all dying to know. I created this blog after a comment about starting my own blog that was made on a facebook note I wrote. I loved my xanga and thought, "hey! starting another blog isn't such a bad idea". I am a 3rd year college student, majoring in Marketing, the Internal Membership VP of the largest professional organization on campus, and I'm awesome. I just had to throw that last part in there to fit the stereotype of the prototypical pompous business student.

Stick around, there is more Erica to come!
