The Silk Notebook — An Introduction.
Welcome to the Silk Notebook, I can’t believe you’re here! Whether you’re someone who has known me since middle school and was curious, or if you’ve just found my page, welcome nonetheless. This is your new safe space to be yourself or make yourself feel better from some of my own life choices.
I suppose I should start by introducing myself to ensure you are in the right place. My name is Courtney, and I’m 21, living in San Diego, CA. I need the beach like oxygen, and I am obsessed with fashion, dancing of all kinds, playing guitar, watching rom-coms, and working on my wellness. I also have big dreams of traveling the world and making a true, positive impact no matter what I do, big or small. If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.
I’ve wanted to start a blog as long as I can remember, as I am still riding an ego-high I got from high school English class (which apparently gives me the credentials). As I’ve gotten older, I realized the things I think, believe in, and love may align with lots of you, allowing me to create a community to support one another as we navigate our 20s. Or teens. Or 50s. Whatever stage of life you’re in, you’re more than welcome here.
This blog will cover many items, such as current fashion trends and beauty favorites, to the best big sister advice I can give based on my experiences. I hope you find this blog funny, heartbreaking, and inspiring all in one.
I have also made a promise to myself that I will only re-read and make edits twice to each post to ensure you are receiving my most authentic self, instead of a filtered version who wants to make everything sounds perfect.
If you’d like to join this lovely community (FREE of charge, just for you), I hope you’ll keep coming back to read & share. You can reach me anytime at courtneyyallisonn@yahoo.com.
I couldn’t be more excited to share this space with you and grow in our lives together. We’re going to be best friends, I can feel it already.
