My name is Angela Maleiny, (Maleiny is pronounced in Spanish sounds like Mulaney) I am a recent UCLA Graduate with a degree in Anthropology. I am Mexican-American or Chicana I'll take either one but never Hispanic. I'm a crafter, a writer, a scientist, and I'm hoping to broaden this list.
I'm not really sure what else to say about me so moving on:
Why this blog? Well, this is like my fourth blog I've tried to start and those blogs didn't spark an interest. So I took a moment to think WHY? My answer? The worlds that I made in those blogs were separate they all spoke about different things, so I felt restricted to speaking on just that content . Thats not how I work I dip into many different things and NOW I feel like those worlds should collide. And they will in this blog. So what does that mean? I will be closing all those other blogs and I will be adding all those previous posts here.It will be scary having all these worlds collide but thats what has happened in this age of technology and instead of running away from it I'm going to embrace it! It might be a disaster it might be a success but I won't know until I try.

I'm going to make a list of things I would advise others to do and do them myself!
We all believe we give awesome advice and it's true we do but it really gets us down when no one takes it. When I do give someone advice (my best by the way) I think to myself: "I'm giving you gold here! Man! Gold!" I'm just going to take my best advice and do it myself! Let's see where this takes me. Some of it will be real dense advice and other things will be sort of like bucket list advice. I'll make this list and cross it out when it's done the:n leave a comment something small. And of course if I think of something else I'll add it in. Well let's hop to it. The best advice I've ever gotten, from me:

- Here I am I did it made a blog! well it was in no way easy I did a lot for this this and am still working on content I have a lot to talk about but I feel like all of this great content just stays in my head.
