introductions and explanations
12:21
So.. I've decided to start a new blog! Blogging is something I have little experience with. I used to have a livejournal account, I have a tumblr account and I have tried to keep a few other blogs and failed (they each only have two posts on, oops!). But this time, I am starting a vlog AND a blog both at the same time. There are a few reasons for this that I will go into later but first I shall introduce myself.
My name is Kaylee. Most people call me Kay. I am currently studying Politics and Sociology at undergraduate level. I live in London with my girlfriend of (almost) five years. I love a lot of things. I am a massive TV geek, I watch a ridiculous amount of tv shows. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family. I know this all sounds pretty standard. If you want to find out more about me, please check out my youtube account where I will be vlogging (hopefully full time but I have this horrible habit of giving up/failing).
The reasons I have decided now is the time to blog AND vlog are simple. It is both a personal and professional choice. I am 25 and I need to start thinking about my future. I will be finishing university in two years and I really would like to do a postgraduate masters in something creative. I have been involved with video editing since the age of 14 when I used to make 'music videos' with clips of The OC. This is something I still enjoy doing, although the tv shows featured in these videos have changed since my teenage years and I make them less frequently. I want to build up a professional portfolio but with a personal twist - this is where the vlogging comes in. I also love writing and I want a place where I can document these personal and professional endeavors, hence this blog.
There is also another reason. I struggle with social anxiety amongst other things. Over the past few years, things have been less than steady. I feel that having an environment where I can express myself and these feelings will maybe allow me to take a step forward. It isn't something that I am certain will work but I hope it will. And even if it doesn't help my anxiety symptoms, hopefully it will act as a distraction from it.
I don't know what I am going to be writing about; expect a little bit of everything. Primarily this is a personal blog where I may well write about political issues from time to time. Other times it may be a rant about a tv show. Like I said, I like a lot of different things :)
Anyway, I hope this blog finds some people and some followers. I would love some interaction and feedback on some my work and also the chance to make friends.
