Every song has a CODA..

a final movement. Whether it fades out or crashes away. Every song ends. Is that any reason not to enjoy the music? The truth is, there is nothing to be afraid of. It's just life.

From a handwritten childhood diary, to Asian Avenue, Friendster, Xanga, Myspace, and Facebook, bits and pieces of my life has always been documented. Whether I grew up, grew bored, or lost touch with myself and others around me, after one platform ended, another began; life goes on. It's nice though to look back, see how much of a dork you were, and how much you've grown over the years. My desire to blog again was inspired by a few friends who have their own personal sites. And after facebook became so "stalkerish" and incorporated what my little sis calls a "stalker bar," I thought I needed my own space where I can freely write without my every move being alerted to the mass majority who could probably care less. And to those who do care, want to know my constant whereabouts, read what I have to say, and basically STALK me lol, you can still lovingly do that here. Moving my posts from 'stalker paradise facebook' to blogger will allow me the freedom to make as many important or useless posts as I want, without the need to feel that people are going to judge or question my every action. I can even talk to myself here, and no one will care or think insanely of me. Okay, maybe not entirely the last part, but you get my point! Either way, it's a win-win situation :)

I could not think of a title for my blog to save my life. Kayvan-Lae was something I came up with awhile back for an email account. It's basically a fusion of my daughter's name, "Kayla" with my son's name, "Evan." Yes, I made their names 'mate' in a non-sickingly way lol. If you personally know me, you know they are my life, and my world lovingly revolves around them. And what better way to express the world in which I live in than to do it through them? I wanted to rearrange and synchronize the first and second half of their names, to represent their interchangeable and everlasting love for one another. As well as to show that they are one and the same, because my love for them is both unconditional and equal. I'd like to keep my personal area "drama free," that means NONE of my posts will be negatively directed towards anyone, so please don't ASSUME when you're reading my entries. But if you're ever brought up, rest assure, it will be a in positive light. Most of what I write will be opinionated. I will talk about the things I enjoy, review products and discuss; makeup, beauty, fashion, health; make announcements, rant, rave, share personal stories, and bring up random and or weird things of interest. If you're a friend of mine, this will be a great way to see exactly what's going on with me, around me, and inside my head if we seldom talk or see each other. But If you're a hater, thank you for investing so much time trying to keep up with my life. I'm glad that I can spark such great interest in even the most bitter people in the world. For everyone else, please enjoy your stay! I hope that at one point or another, something I write will become of relevance to you, and perhaps can possibly help better your life in some kind of way.


XOXO, Melanie

PS. Yes, that's my unofficial alias folks! I use it whenever I'm tired of people butchering my name in public lol. And yes, I do write a LOT. Get use to it. Try it too, it's very therapeutic haha :)
