Day 1: a latte and ramblings

Let’s start with introductions: my name is Sydney and I am 22 years old. I am a student studying Industrial and CMF Design. It sounds reductive for someone to introduce themselves by just their work title, but it seems stereotypical to do so. Anyways, welcome to my page! I am starting the 100 Day Challenge, posting a snippet of my life every day until April 24th. This will not only be a physical challenge — the logistics of blogging for a busy person is always a feat — but a mental one as well. I have never done something quite like this before, so welcome to the journey that is Sydney blogging.

The seemingly endless content makes me nervous (and excited) about how this will make me grow over the next semester. More often than not, things in your life (big or small) that test you, are some of the most rewarding experiences. I have no intention of gaining followers; I’m practically writing into a black void of the internet. But I’m thinking of this project more as a digital journal rather than a social media hurdle. I have been terrible at classic journaling in the past, so I have a feeling this will be better suited to my lifestyle. Looking back on this in a few months will be quite the time capsule.

Best of luck to everyone who is starting a new thing today. Starting something is always the hardest part. Congrats…we just did it!
