21 Before 21: Write

Last night, I met up with Holly to catch up on things. We went to B's, one of my favorite coffee and cake places. The ambiance there is simply outstanding. We had a great time smoking, drinking coffee (well, I had tea) and talking about what's been happening.

The funny thing is, while drinking coffee and talking about my everlasting unhappiness and constipation, I ended up telling her about this amazing online magazine idea I've had for awhile. I started talking about how I always wanted to sort of replicate Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop but more for the younger (cheaper) crowd here in the city. I've been thinking about this for awhile now and when I told Holly, she was surprisingly supportive.

We don't usually get along when it comes to writing. I prefer writing about lighter more personal things about my emotions and Holly's more into the whole fashion, literature and experience categories. Honestly, I'm not a fashionista so I'm not a big fan of talking about dressing up or what make-up to use. I like my clothes comfy and classic (thus, my addiction to RRL). What I do love to do is eat! I absolutely love to eat whenever and wherever I can. My dream job? To be the host of Man vs. Food!

That is why, last night, Holly and I decided to create our online magazine. I believe we're (including two people we believe to be great as a contributor) the perfect mix of crazy, wild, lazy, calm and adventurous.

The concept is simple, three categories that everyone (every girl if you think about it) loves. I don't want to jinx it so I won't spill the details here yet. What I will tell you though is that because of this project, I was able to cross out write from my list. Yesterday was all about writing!

I started writing the drafts when I got home last night and will probably finish everything by tonight. I'm also thinking of writing.

What's fun about this project is that it is the real thing. Not just something to do on our spare time, but an honest to goodness real online lifestyle magazine that will hopefully reach people out there to try some of the things we highly recommend.

Can't wait for the first issue!

Someone Anxious.
