The Beginning of a NEW era

Well...this is new to me. My first time blogging. That's only if you don't count Myspace blogs.

Kinda weird.

I really don't know what to write but... I do know why I want to blog.

I'm in my fourth year at Eastern Kentucky University and I have a minor in journalism. What is a better way to get practice then to blog. LOL. I know lame.

It is 2:49 and it's finals week. I really should be going to sleep but I think I would rather be doing this.

I love reading blogs. I have a whole folder under my favorites dedicated to random blogs that I come across and interest me so I save them so I can see any updates.

I decided on the blog name, S.I.S.T.A, because I'm the president of a student organization on campus called S.I.S.T.A (Sisters in Spirit Through Achievement) and the purpose for the organization is to empower the women on campus and surrounding communities through student programs, community service, motivational speakers and provide these young women with the tools that are necessary to be successful while in college. I also research what sista stands for. UrbanDictionary.com says "a woman who carries herself with pride", "a black woman who carries herself with high respect", and "a fellow female who has been through similar situations to what you have been through thus empowering her to truly empathize, support and encourage you on your journey as you do the same for her. She gets it. There is no need to strain & explain to a true sistah."
I want my blog to be a testimate to any young woman who is trying to better her life. Regardless in what way that is.

I'm better sure I will write longer and better post in the future...but since my roommate is complaining that I'm typing to loud I think its time to shut down.
