Hi:) my name is Ellie. Welcome to the EllieDaisy blog. Let’s just acknowledge this right now: I have no idea what I’m doing. Hence the title “slightly clueless.”
I’m quite sure that fact is evident at a glance, but I decided to go out on a limb and create this blog for a few purposes regardless of my lack of experience.
- I love connecting with people, but I have no desire to be in the public eye so other mediums like Instagram are really not my thing.
- I’m about to have a CRAZY summer. From living in a van in Hawaii for 2 months, to backpacking the Tetons, to running my first marathon, there was no better time of my life to start this project. Honestly, if you only stick around to find out how my friend and I survive without an in-home bathroom for 2 months…I’m okay with that.
- I love to laugh with people. I fully intend for this blog to be a collection of my favorite memories, stories that make me laugh way too hard, the good and the bad and the Tuesdays in between.
Let me just clear the air right now: I’m no influencer. I’m not trying to be. There’s no part of my life that’s necessarily marketable or aesthetic, I just really love living and sharing good times with good people. I think life is the most beautiful mess, and I’m trying to capture that here.
Hence the name EllieDaisy. It’s symbolism is pretty simple: wildflowers make plain things so, so beautiful. This will sound incredibly cliché, but I really do believe that joy is found in the details of existence, regardless of the big picture. Those details make the ordinary something to smile about, kind of like flowers growing through the cracks of a sidewalk.
Honestly you guys? Life is so, so good. I’m just here to publicly appreciate it, write about it, immortalize it for myself in the future and anyone else who wants to appreciate it with me.
If you’re one of those people, I hope you’re ready to laugh with me (and at me:) and enjoy the ride.
