The Life of... Nichole - Part II


Picking up from yesterday

My side-job

After being asked out on a date, I started this blog. I decided to use it  to keep family updated but then it turned into a way to help other significant others and spouses alike on their journey into and throughout the military world. I knew no matter where in the world I went this blog would follow and I could talk about life and the journey it is taking me on. As it would seem in Atlanta, I have yet (in the six months that I have been here) found a job as a Journalist, so I chose to become a full-time blogger instead and have been staying at home and hanging out with friends and I'm loving every minute of it.

Backing up a little, after we moved into our new home in Atlanta and gotten married. I found a temp job writing for a company about agriculture, I worked here for 6 months writing and being a social media manager until I realized it wasn't a good fit. It was a nice company, but I wasn’t very happy working there and needed to find something else.


That was when I began blogging full-time on a regular basis. I am still with Blogspot, I love that it is a free platform but I can use my own domain. I am in the middle of getting a blog makeover also from a amazing woman, Rissa. Although, I have NO background or training in blogging, it is something I love doing. And I'm sure I always will! I named it A Semper Fi Life (notice how it's a Marine related name, yet?), But I've expanded from just talking about the military to include college and travel related categories.

It’s a far cry from working a big magazine or newspaper, but for me everything worked out better than I could have imagined. Plus I get to wear sweatpants to work if I want! ;) So if you ever need some freelance work or blog post work, I’m your go-to-person!
