First Challenge

by Randi

It’s time for the first official challenge of:

Here is the challenge:

On Project Runway, contestants were asked to create an outfit that showed who they are as designers. Bloggers, your challenge is equally simple - give us a post about why you do what you do. Why do you blog? Why do you blog about your particular subject? What sets your blog apart? How did you get started? These are just some of the questions you may choose to answer in your post, but the actual content is totally up to you!

Let me first start with why I blog. I began blogging a few years ago when an old family friend actually explained what a blog was. See, I live in a very rural part of Vermont. It may shock you, dear readers, but the area I live in doesn’t even have a Starbucks, much less a Target or Walmart! I realized that the blog was the perfect place to get my words and feelings out. Have you ever had a song stick in your head, and you felt as though you would burst unless you started humming or singing it? That’s the way writing is for me. I can get things out much easier on paper (or on a computer) than I can vocally.

I loved reading blogs. Personal blogs are a way to become the fly on the wall in someone else’s life. It was through reading blogs that I learned that 451 Press needed a writer for the new Brad Pitt blog they wanted to launch. I’ve always loved Brad and Angie and thought that the position was absolutely perfect!

Brad worked his way up through the Hollywood grapevine to become one of the greatest American male actors. He’s now furthering his career by having his own production company. Angie has struggled a bit in her life. She used chemicals to help get her through the difficult times and has had notable issues with relationships. She turned herself around, however, when she adopted Maddox, and has now become an icon for all Hollywood working mothers. Both Brad and Angie have firm beliefs and don’t settle for just talking about their beliefs - they actually do something. So why do I love Brad and Angie? How can I not?!

That marks the end of the first challenge! If I win, I get a beautiful, environmentally friendly bracelet from the Ecoist as well as (and probably more importantly) IMMUNITY! Head on over to Reality on Bravo in order to vote for the person that you think did the best on the competition, and you can win a bracelet as well!

Here is the list of the other contestants, and I wish to offer my heartfelt best wishes to all of them!
