my first time

the information age has taken it's toll. is anyone else overwhelmed? i am, so i'm starting a blog. this is a small piece of the pie compared to the powerhouses like hypebeast, the huffington post, tmz, and perez hilton, but some sort of creative outlet is desired, and who knows maybe i'll have a million hits someday.

i found myself reading blogs like thehundereds.com, hypebeast.com, hypem.com, and thesartorialist.com, which are all centered around fashion, music, film, urban culture, and food. i recently moved back to small town chico ca and found myself missing the aforementioned "culture" that one would find in a larger, urban area; and blogs based in these cities were my connection. and if you havent gathered this already, chico is not exactly a cultural metropolis. but we do have one saving grace, which is the college. but in the same vain, chico state also attracts all the undesirable aspects of larger cities. i.e. douche bags from bay area suburbs ans hunnington beach.

so this is an attempt to bring a little bit of what i loved in cities like los angeles, san fransisco, and the VERY little i liked about san diego to our little town of chico. there are a few that get it right and know of the wonderful aspects of life outside this bubble. im not claiming to be an authority on art, music, fashion, food, or nightlife, but i know what i like- and being from chico and having experienced life outside it-why not try. besides, its 1:15 am, and im tired of doing history homework.
