the name: HelloSamichan to This Is What She Saw
Honestly, HelloSamichan was the screenname I created for myself back in 2007 or so. I have no idea why I named myself this, but I went with it and have gone with it for a decade.
Nowadays, I think of it more as myself greeting everyone who comes to my humble side of the Internet. It’s a space for me to share where to go and what to do in the Midwest. (It’s also a place for me to talk about where I’ve gone.) It’s a space to talk about beauty, fashion, food — life in general. It’s a comfy space to chill, grow, and be real with one another.
This is the space I want to cultivate, and I’m sharing it with anyone who wants to join.
This is what she saw.
the girl: SamJoy Jordan
I’m that one girl who always has a camera at the ready and a coffee in hand. I can be loud and obnoxious and quiet and shy all at the same time. Despite looking like I edit videos, papers, and photos for a living, I’m a science nerd with a degree in chemistry and a dream to go to med school — but it won’t happen just yet. I’m still working towards my dream while balancing it with a cup of coffee and pixels on the web. There are still some things I need to address before committing myself to another 10+ years of education.
