So, first, a bit about me. I'm Jennifer. Currently, I'm a 19 year old college student in Kentucky. I am majoring in Journalism and minoring in Electronic Media and Broadcasting. My love for my family and country music are two things that I cannot describe. Nail polish is one of my obsessions, but this blog is more about my life than my obsessions.
I may not have a very blog worthy life. This is more about me being able to express myself, not what people think. I think that is always one of my biggest fears, even if I do tend to portray myself as being someone who does not let other people negatively influence what I think of myself. It does not impact me like it used to, but negative words will always hurt.
My blog name is inspired by two of my favorite Martina McBride songs, "She's A Butterfly" and "From The Ashes". When I met Martina McBride, I just gave her a hug after we exchanged hi's. I had no words at that moment. Martina's music has always been there, whether it is inspiring me, cheering me up, or just allowing me to dance around like a goofball. I have loved her music since my age was a single digit (okay, 9, BUT STILL). She is an amazing person, and she is SO sweet!
Right now, my family is considering a lot of change. I need to focus on the present instead of the future, but it is really challenging to do so. I'm slipping. In school, in my social life, in my sanity... Basically, I need an outlet. I hold everything in, and that can get pretty scary. Stress can be a very physical thing, and anger can be out of proportion.
But as we saw with the brief description of meeting Martina McBride, my life has positive moments too. My life seems to work in a way that for a few months, things go really well, and then for a few months, they do not go very well. And right now, I am experiencing the latter.
So here will be my journey through this roller coaster ride, as I dance among the flames and gain my wings <3
