About.

My name is Danasia. I’m a fun loving girl from the East Coast. I have an amazing boyfriend named David, and a beautiful puppy named Terror Jane.

I vowed that when I turned 25, it would be the year I’d truly start living life to the fullest. I vowed to learn something new as often as possible, and to find the beauty in everything. What better way to stay accountable to that than writing a blog about it?

In addition to blogging, I’ll be posting videos, articles and images that are at times somber and evocative, other times beautiful and hopeful.

Pictures on this blog are my own personal images, unless otherwise stated at the end of the post. If you want to use an image, just ask, I promise I will not bite:)

Also, if I have used one of your images and didn’t cite you properly, please let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

  5. Hi Danasia!
    I love your vow, and your tag line ‘searching for the beauty in everything’, I believe it is the best way to find beauty. I’ll be happy to see the beauty you find 🙂
    The Buddhist’s believe is to smile, it will bring positive thinking with it…
    You’ve got an awesome smile

  13. You’re so young, only 25. I’m 35 (let’s keep that a secret) :+) but I remember feeling old at 25. As I said in my blog response to one of your posts, when you get closer to 40 you’ll gain even more confidence and put things into perspective, and the things that bothered you in your 20’s will seem like nothing.

    • Of course! I can’t wait to read more of your posts! We rescued her and when we picked her up, they told us her name was Terror. Well although she doesn’t look it in the photo she’s 75 pounds and a force to be reckoned with. When we started introducing her as Terror people would get freaked out, so we decided to soften the blow by calling her Terror Jane… at this point she mostly just answers to Jane. It’s like she knows her original name was a fail. lol.

      • Aaaww that is really sweet of you. You are so nice! I think you look a lot like her! Beauty is not only the outside but also the inside. And as I can read in your blog. You got it all!
        I’m a newbie in the fashion. I always wanted my own company. With the idea in my head for over 3 years, I was a little scared to make something out of it. But last year july 2011 I just went and did it. I just did…with no plans, no money, no idea of how to handle all of this. But it just turning out good for now. You know what they say: “Life is full of chances and opportunities, but befor you can acomplish it you must dare to take risks” And so I did. I know that nobody could make your dreams come true beside yourself. You just need to take the risk, what do you have to lose 😉

  20. I hope you don’t mind my peeking into your life (hehe! as per blog posts, I mean) from time to time:-) I especially like the idea of finding beauty in everything…something I definitely could use. Am in Kenya (just FYI) and…good stuff! – am certain I could pick a thing or two… Thanks. Wish you the best too: that you may find mostly…beautiful things…

  25. You have a lovely blog! Thank you for reading and commenting on my blog. I am 23 and I don’t think my 20s started out or is going quite the way I wanted it to but reading your blog has given me new hope :D. Now I feel confident to reinvent myself, or at least some aspects of my life. My mission is now to be “born” at 24! Lol. I’m looking forward to reading more from you. Keep up the good work.

  36. Thank you for liking my post about image placement in WordPress. I enjoyed visiting your blog. I can really relate to your post about slacking on the blog posts. I find it difficult to take a moment to write a post when I am busy doing many other things at the same time.

  41. Hi Danasia (such a unique name, I love it). Just wanted to drop a comment and say wow, this blog is beautiful, and I like where you’re going with your vow. I hope your 25th year is everything you wish it to be :).

    P.S. I am LOVING your look. I’d probably cry in a corner if I had all my hair chopped off…I’m a long-hair-loving gal myself lol, but you are looking fantastic!
