A Word from This Blog's Sponsor

Hello, I'm Chantal, or as I'm often known online: Noxin. And oh wow.... blogging looks like some pretty SRS BSNS, right about now. Well, not really, but still, I've never tried my hand at it. Surely, it'll be a fun venture into the unknown, right? Like Colonel Percy Fawcett's expedition into the Brazilian jungle (check it out-- he was real, plus the joke's funnier that way).

Anyway, the point of this blog, is for me to relinquish my tight hold on appearing boring. That is, this is the blog where I get to post as many links and pics of adorable, pink, very girly things that I find. I can fangirl myself to death in this blog without a worry, whereas I cannot in the second blog I created.

Ah, 'a second blog?', you ask? Yes, I have two, and seeing as this one is the more playful, less serious of the two, the other is of course, the more serious and 'professional' out of the pair. I've separated them as for whatever reason, society seems to think that a person cannot have two separate sides: you cannot be incredibly and intellectually attuned with linguistics, literature, and politics and enjoy, saaaayy, those adorable little USB drives that look like hot dogs.... or wearing huge, fleece pajamas that look like adorable little Pokemon.

I beg to differ, but all the same, have created two blogs-- one where I can 'girl out' without need to be taken seriously, and another where I sort of do need to be taken seriously, and as such cannot, under any circumstances have an overtly 'feminine' side. (When's the last time you saw Arianna Huffington showing off her shoe collection?) So yeah- a literal dichotomy in terms of blogs.

In either case, I'll be posting in whichever blog I'm moved to post in that day, what with the duality all being part of the same person and personality and all. So now, I officially declare this blog open!!! And from here on in, it'll be all fun, a lot of fashion, a bit of makeup, a pinch of product reviews, and hopefully, you'll find me to be occasionally cute. ;]
