The word "and" is a conjunction, a connecting word. It implies an addition or a continuation. The reason I chose my blog to be named "and" or simply "&" is to imply continuation. There will always be more adventures, more stories — more to write about. I see this blog as an on-going thing and I don't intend to stop blogging any time soon. Maybe an occasional break or lull, but there will always be an 'and'.

Hello there,
The name's Amanda. I'm an 19 year-old gal residing in good ol' Toronto, Canada and currently studying at the Ontario College of Art & Design University. My interests range from art, design, and photography to music, food, and fashion.
I started this blog in August of 2010 with the intention of documenting my day-to-day adventures. Consider this my public journal. Not only is it for tracking the places I've been and the things I've done but it's also a sort of inspiration board; a scrapbook or catalogue of everything I love. If this doesn't heavily reflect my personality, then I don't know what does.
Besides here, you can find me on:
