Good day! I am never really good at these ‘introduction’
type posts, so I figure I’ll just introduce myself in drabbles:
- My name’s Laura, but I typically go by Elle Zee online.
It’s a nickname that stems from a crazy too-much-sugar fueled graduation night
water bottle. Yes, a water bottle.
- On occasion, I may blog too many posts on the following
subjects (of which I love dearly): The Killers, healthy eating, and The Vancouver
Canucks. Of course, I will blog about more than these things.
- Sometimes people don’t understand why I yell at a
television screen when hockey is on. I’m sorry I’m not sorry.
- I am currently in school to become a librarian. The
library is my second home, my second nature. I am that person who is way too
excited about cataloguing. However, I do not know everything about every book
ever.
- Recently (within the last year) I have lost a total of 67
pounds. Yay! It’s been a long and tough journey, one that
I’ll be on for the rest of my life. I think realizing that I have my whole
life to live is what got me focused: eat healthy, exercise when I can, watch
what I eat but don’t restrict myself so much.
- Jogging has become the essential start to my day and I
love exercising for a bit in the evening to de-stress.
- I am very close to opening my very first Etsy! I will be
selling illustrated greeting cards, and then maybe prints later on. Art has
always been a passion of mine, and I am excited to share it with the world. I
hope that my art can brighten a room, a day, or even a moment.
- Sometimes I start too many projects at once.
- Growing up, my dad always took me hiking or fishing and I
have held a love for nature throughout my life. I will always prefer to be
outside than inside and whenever I have a creative lull I will go on outside
for an adventure; this always helps and I come back full of ideas/doodles.
- Last, but not least: Welcome! I’ll be back on Monday with
an outfit post. Currently, my style is slowly evolving (thanks to the weight
loss, dressing up is a bit more fun). However, I still am pretty stubborn
style-wise and will typically just throw on jeans + t-shirt + cardigan.
Hopefully I’ll add more pieces to my wardrobe as the months go on.
Have a most fabulous day! : )
Elle!
