What is friendship but just stuff people do?
Reese and Meghana met 5 years ago today, inexplicably bonded by their weird senses of humor, love of Disney movies, and the fact that they were already roommates. From getting in trouble at work by making each other laugh too hard, to braving 18 hour dollar bus rides to visit one another, to vacationing together, to moving across the country and ending up in the same city - five years has been a lifetime and yet only the beginning. They love making content, writing, literature, photography, and this blog is just another thing they wish to do together.
Reese
Reese is a mid-twenty-something who hates writing about herself in the third person. She loves to read, write, and craft although she seems to rarely have time to pursue any of her hobbies. She studied English and Entrepreneurship in school because she has a deep interest in words beginning with the letter E, and applies her education to her career in marketing.
Reese was born and raised in Georgia where she currently lives with her partner and senior chihuahua. Both Reese and her partner are Scoprios, but who knows what sign the senior chihuahua is (many speculate he is a virgo). In her free time, Reese loves to thrift and travel. Recently, she coped with her quarter life crisis by becoming a runner and a Pilates princess (forgoing her original plan of buying a motorcycle). When she grows up, she wants to be either a Southern Literature Professor, comedian, or something in the middle. Her vices include energy drinks and ironic t-shirts.
Meghana
Meghana is a mid-twenty-something writer and filmmaker waiting for the strikes to be over (go unions!). She has been working on her first novel for almost a decade (but swears it’s basically almost done once she rewrites the next half of it), and is also writing projects she soon hopes to film (*cough* go unions! *cough*). She studied theatre in high school and fell in love with directing. Midway through college she switched majors to film studies because as much as she loved theatre, her favorite medium has always been film. She has worked in all sorts of departments in film and television (for networks, studios, film school, and more), and is learning how to forge her way through to a career with no direct path.
Meghana was born and raised in Laurel, Maryland and moved to Atlanta to escape the horrible pollen in her parent’s backyard. And also for the Georgia Film Academy, which she graduated from this year. She is interested in far too many topics including history (specifically the American Revolution but also more than that), art (and apologizes to Reese for taking a picture of every landscape at every art museum they visit together), photography, travel, literature, cinema, and so much more. When she grows up she wants to be an author and film director so this blog is sharing the journey of how she eventually gets there. Or it’s just some more stuff she does.
