I've begun this first blog post in three years at least 5 times now and I keep erasing it and running for the metaphorical door.
This place is almost exactly the way it was when I left it. Honestly, that kinda freaks me out. If I had stayed would I be almost exactly the same after three years too? I've definitely grown a lot and I can't say that being away from here didn't have something to do with that growth. Reading these old journal entries makes me realize how much of a little child I was. I thought I was all grown up. I was so naive.

Am I old enough, strong enough to come back and not get sucked into the vortex? I don't want to go back to believing that I'm something I'm not. I'm just Alex.

Alexsandria Vaughan. I live in downtown LA. I'm a florist with big plans for travel and dreams of living in a converted shipping container with a greenhouse/art studio. I am not a minor celebrity, by any standards, and neither are any of the girls here.

With that said, I would like to formally invite you all to read my nonSG blog here: These Things
This is where you'll really be able to find out what's going on with me, which I must say, is about to get rather exciting!

In four months I'm about to embark on a journey of a lifetime. My boyfriend/best friend and I are going to travel Central and South America for one year. For the most part we'll be in very rural areas, doing a work trade thing on organic farms. Our first farm is in Belize and we'll be farming Cacao and living in a little cabin in the rainforest. I won't have too much access to internet so when I update it will most likely be over at my nonSG blog, so make sure you bookmark it.


Here's a pretty horrible photo of me in bad lighting after eating a giant burrito. It's not particularly flattering, but it's recent!


so, yeah... hey guys!
