Welcome!!

Welcome to my new blog!!

I love blogging.  You could say it's one of my greatest passions, writing blogs.  I'm still searching for that one topic that I'll just love write about.  Currently, I have two that I update: Suz's Brain Mush, which is about the everyday happenings in my life, and Since You Asked..., which is my opinion on mainly pop culture-related topics, but I talk about anything else I want to as well.

One of the things I've been hoping to do, since I'm currently at home all day, is to redo my room.  And since I have a low (as in, barely any) budget and I love being able to say I made something, I decided that means that my redo should be done mostly by me.  I want to make or do everything I can myself instead of going out and paying more to buy a piece done by someone else.  I do plan to move (I'm at my mom's for now), so nothing I'm making will be permanent -- it'll all be stuff I can take apart or move easily.

Of course, I'm new at this DIY stuff, so I'm sure I'll fail miserably at a few things, and fuck up fantastically at others.  Some I'll have to scrap and some will be awesome.  Also, I will probably be doing things I can find online, or maybe from ideas on Pinterest or other pictures I've seen, at least at first, until I'm comfortable coming up with my own.

I will do my best to link to other blogs or sites when I can, and I'll also try and find the original source for any pictures I use.  I'll put up a lost later of projects I hope to tackle this summer, as well as maybe a description of my room.

Of course, I'll also be trying to organize my life, so I may include things that help you organize on here, even if they aren't strictly DIYs.  At least, not the way people think of DIY.  I think that as long as you're doing it -- making it, writing it, cooking it, organizing it, sorting it, or painting it -- it's a DIY.  So you may see all of those here.  Cookies are good when you do them yourself too, you know!!

So I do hope you enjoy my attempts at prettying and organizing my life!!
