Virgin Blogger

     Yes this is my first time blogging. Thanks to the help of my Aunt Laney and a free blog layout I can publicly enter into this new phase of my life. I see this as a new start and you will now be able to follow as this new chapter in my life unfolds. Will it end up being a standard system of updating my family or a place to let my pen (or keyboard) run, spill my life woes and joys? Currently I'm torn, so lets do both.

     After a series of events I find myself here in AZ anxious and nervous to start my new life and to leave an old one behind. I'm not only looking into the menacing eyes of a Master's Art History program but also leaving behind family, relationships, and mountains that I will miss dearly. What parts of "SLC Jess" should I hold onto and what others should I leave behind? Who will I be, what do I want to become, and what do I want to achieve? Fair questions, but one best left for a later blog. I do know one thing though, as my mom so wisely reminded me while hiking up Bells Canyon "To thine own self be true".

 With God's speed let this journey and blog page be christened
