an interview with
Alyssa
from
solely alyssa Name: Alyssa Age: 13 Hobbies: photography, crafts, blythe, drawing and doodling. Describe yourself: Quirky. Curious. Silly. Creative. ßut personally I think everyone is creative! It’s just whether or not a person takes time to learn and teach their selves how they can output it into a hobby. Why do you blog? I blog because it teaches me things. And the opportunities to meet people who share the same interests. It’s amazing how much you can learn by blogging and how many people you meet! (wonderful people, that is)

What do you blog about? everything? It’s a little corner to track life, hobbies, feelings, and what you have learned. If you go back to a very first post on a photography blog you can most likely see how you have improved over time! What do you want to be when you grow up? A photographer, web designer+graphics, video game developer, anything along those lines. I like them because it leaves room to explore and learn more about something you love. It’s incorporating a hobby into your job! What are some of your deepest passions? Photography has definitely got to be first! Pictures are the best things you could possibly ever have and because you can take a bit of everything with you and save it forever. I am starting to indulge myself in the hobby of blythe! It’s really spectacular because they combine a ton of hobbies into one little… taco? Haha. She just really sums up everything. (knitting, sewing, crochet, design, blogging, and so much more!)

What would you like your readers to do/feel/be when they are reading your posts/blog? Well, I want readers to enjoy it, be inspired, and me be inspired too! Keep the inspiration train going! “Creativity is contagious. Pass it on.”-Albert Einstein. My favorite part is definitely discovering blogs that readers have. It’s pretty much a little circle of people you know (online or real life) and you all have your own ideas to offer and tips and tricks for the common interests you might share. What/who are you inspired by? Why? In what way? Bloggers. All of them. Especially the ones who challenge theirselves and post what’s in their mind and do what they want to do because their blog is their space to.. show off. I love how everyone has their own little thing to show . Their own signature, or specialty. It makes each blog unique. What is your dream or, your dream life? Oh.. I want to live on a dairy farm, and raise alpacas for their wool stuff (fleece?). I will work in my house during the day as a web and graphic designer, with photography as a hobby and doing weddings for friends, etc. Yeah, it sounds a little wacky but it seems cool and something to keep busy! (and lots of fun) Thank you Alyssa! Don’t forget to visit her blog at solelyalyssa.blogspot.com
