Welcome back, friends! There's a new look and feel around these parts thanks to an incredibly wonderful lazy weekend.
Question: Is it okay that I still haven't done an "About Me" page, but I've changed up the fonts, headers, social media links and all those things at least 5 times in the last few months?
I think my priorities are out of line, especially when Helene gives "get-your-life-together" tips all the time (here and here). I just don't know what to say that summarizes who I am, especially when that's what I'll be judged on by new readers who come over to play. Do you have any advice for this critical blogger problem?
Right now, my draft {sarcastically} looks something like this:
Hi, I'm Jessi!
I'm 26 years young and living a happy, healthy life in Portland, Oregon.
I'm so happy that you know I'm a blogger because now we have the awkward part out of the way that I have to try to explain when I meet people in real life. You have no idea what a relief this is. Especially that I know you're {probably} a blogger too and we basically just became instant best friends. All we have to do now is follow each other on bloglovin', instagram and twitter and we can start talking about buying plane tickets to meet each other in real life.
You'd probably like to know a little more about me before we go there, right?
Okay - so I've lived in Portland, Oregon my entire life and I work at Nike World Headquarters. I'm single and am the mother to a handsome betta fish named Tiger. I have a DSLR that I never use, my go-to karaoke song is Regulate (because I can rap, but can't sing) and my new favorite workout is a hip-hop dance class. I use and abuse snapchat. #Selfie is a song about me.
If we were real-life friends you'd know that I can be inappropriately silly and unapologetically awkward. These two things are also reasons why you won't see a vlog on this page, unless somebody were to pay me. Moneyand alcohol will always make me do something I said I never would.
I guess since we're getting personal you'll want to see a photo of me too?
Here's my latest selfie. If you follow me on social media, you'll see many more just like this!
I look forward to meeting you soon!
Love you long time,
Jessi
Was that as awkward for you as it was for me?
When you first found me did you hunt high and low to find out who I was? Or did you just start reading and liked the girl behind JumpingJE without knowing her single, dogless, workaholic, sweataholic status?
Thanks for your feedback!
