FIRST POST!

This is really happening! 
Yes, my good friend, Narah, and I have started a blog.

What of? 
Everything and nothing.

Why the name? 
"Vanilla" is an insult my niece used when someone was being 'boring.' So Narah and I attack each other with it when necessary. But hey, sometimes being "vanilla" is quite alright. :)
"Mixtapes" because my sister and I are known for the ones we make. We love the good feeling of discovering an artist with talent that deserves to be known and appreciated. Our music tastes have a pretty wide range, but you'll soon come to find which I lean toward. :)
[Narah, should we used smileys on this thing?]

So there you have it: vanilla, a plain/simple term; mixtapes, a broad/experimental term. 
Narah and I have known of each other, since we both grew up in the same church, and are currently serving together in the same ministries. It wasn't until 2009, however, that we really had the opportunity to know each other. You see, we were assigned to each other as prayer partners for our missions trip to the Philippines in that December. Since then, it's been a fun rollercoaster ride!! I thank God that He orchestrated things the way He did. She may have not liked me when I was a bratty little kid. haha!

Anyways..

You will soon come to find out what this blog is all about--as will we. hehe.

Enjoy!!

PS: WE LIKE TO YELL!!
