5 Tips on How to Start A Blog

One question I get a lot is "How do I start a blog?" My 5 tips for how to start a blog 1. Just start First and foremost - you just need to start.

600 Blog Posts!

Diary Day: When Instagram Isn’t Much Fun Anymore

Maybe the title of this post is a little dramatic, but I'm going to be 100% honest... Instagram just isn't all that fun for me anymore. I remember when I first downloaded the app and (accidentally) posted the same photo 3 times. My sisters laughed at me because I thought it was just an app you'd use to put different filters on photos! I didn't realize that you could follow people and see everything they posted. This was back in 2011 or 2012, when Instagram was brand new to the scene and only …
