The long story...
My name is Alana and I'm tiny, like really tiny...as in so small that my guy friends used to play catch with me. But hey, I've gotten used to it and have embraced my size- I bet you can't curl up and fall asleep in a chair!
I was born into a family of 3 girls, 2 parents and a loving dog in Pikesville, MD. I'm a product of a divorced family, and to be honest with you, it was probably one of the best things that ever happened to me. Sure, I was a confused little 5-year-old at the time, but just a few years later, I acquired a stepmom, a stepdad, two awesome stepbrothers, and eventually an adorable half sister who is now a good 3 5 inches taller than me.
I originally started this blog because a coworker at my first real internship told me that if I wanted to be a journalist, I needed to both write and read blogs. Though I originally thought she was crazy, I've grown to love my blog. I've never been good at keeping a journal, I've somehow remained consistent in my blog posts. This blog has sort of evolved into a place where I can share funny stories, dating drama and my take on fashion.
