Hi Steemers! I’m Maci. For my introduction... I wrote you a song :)

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

Hello Beautiful People of Steemit!

My name is Maci, my habitat is the mountains, and I am 21 years old. I graduated from college a little over a month ago. Since then, I took a trip to New Zealand, moved to a new city, broke up with my boyfriend, had multiple meltdowns about what the hell I am going to do with my life, and started yoga teacher training.

Here is a picture of MEEE!

Here are some pictures of why I've chosen the mountains as my habitat.

THREE THINGS THAT I'M ALL ABOUT:

  1. Obviously, I absolutely love the outdoors. If you are confused on that at all, see the above pictures.

  2. I love self-development and learning. I completed a Health Coaching Certification through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition last year and (as mention above) I am currently going through Yoga Teacher Training! I will definitely be posting content about food, health, and happiness in the future!!!

  3. Oooohhhhh and I loveeee making things! Making food, art, connections with people, awkward songs dedicated to the people of Steemit… I think the ability to create is incredible and the best part of being human.

And now, THE PREFACE TO THE SONG:

Lately, I’ve been purging the useless shit out of my life. This started with breaking off my long-distance relationship. It continued to weeding out activities that I hate doing (working at restaurants and nannying). I deciding that I wasn’t going to get a job unless it was fulfilling. So far, it's been a good call, as I probably shouldn’t be watching your children unless I care about doing so.

Its is amazing because as I have gotten rid of the useless shit, wonderfully useful things (ah em... Steemit) have been coming into my life. Now, here I am, sitting on my couch at 2:00 pm while all my roommates are at work. Thinking to myself… what do I actually want to do today. Writing and performing a song is the epitome of what I want to be doing. Despite having a deep rooted belief that I suck at it, I did it anyways, because I now have the time and energy to do so. IT FEELS SO GOOD TO LET YOURSELF FEEL GOOD.

Earlier today a beautiful friend of mine explained that like a baby seed you already have everything inside of you to grow into a beautiful tomato plant. It is up to you to make sure you are in an environment where you grow into the most kick-ass tomato plant that you can be. Writing a song for you all serves as a thank you for being one of those super cool upside down tomato cages. An environment for discomfort (its gotta be weird for plants to grow upside down), but also, growth.

Thank you for being an accepting, excited community of wonderfully interesting people.

Without further ado, MY INTRODUCTION SONG:

That was exciting. Here's my WHAT YOU ACTUALLY POSTED THAT TO THE INTERNET face:
