There once was a woman who led a forlorn, uncertain life...but then it occurred to her, as she leafed through the many current tales of the past...that people might welcome the novelty of a journal written by an ordinary woman. And thus, the college student was inspired to write a blog, not from peer pressure, not from her love of the internet, but from a quote from an introspective journal circa 954-968 C.E.
This blog will hopefully be host to a myriad of different thoughts, ideas, and most importantly, pictures. I absolutely adore photography, so be on the lookout as I try and combine my love of all things Heian (794-1185 C.E.) with my photography skills. It's sure to be interesting!
