Well it looks like Oklahoma is back at it again. Literally swagging off the Richter! I think that September should be officially renamed to Swaggtember in Oklahoma. Earthquakes have been blowing up all over the state this month. I think this has little to do with seismic waves and more to do with just how fly our state is being.
This article gives some of the specifics on the 'quaking that has been taking place. This kind of earthquake activity is rare (like Mr. Clean with hair) in Oklahoma. I'm hoping this is a precursor for a season of swagging. That's right, I'm calling you out fall! You'd better bring in a season of fresh foliage. You officially started fresh, so I suggest you stay fresh.
I'm not saying we need to have a devastating earthquake hit our state or anything crazy like that, I'm just saying I will do everything in my power to keep up the swagging. If we keep it up they might have to do away with the Richter Scale all together and make a new one. Any name suggestions? I'm thinking maybe Rachel, just a suggestion.

Hands-free Partying
Have you ever been trying to get your party on and thought, "Man, this would be a lot easier if I didn't have to have my purse on my arm!"? I bet you have. I've been dealing with this problem for as long as I can remember and I am sad to admit I even let it bring down my swag a few times. But worry no more, I have found the solution to this problem...It is called the fanny pack.
When most people hear the words "fanny" and "pack" they are less than excited. The fanny pack really has a bad rap. Most people associate it with mom jeans and scrunchies, but the fanny pack has been reborn. Watch out world! There are so many ways to trick out your pack and there is no need to follow the trends of clutches and shoulder bags.
I love a good fanny pack. Not only does it allow you to be hands-free in whatever you are trying to accomplish at that moment, (whether it be tailgating or bar-hoping) it also provides you with a great conversation piece with complete strangers. I wish I had a dollar for every compliment I've gotten on my various packs.
So what if not everyone "gets it"? You can almost guarentee that you'll be the only one at your respective bar/party/gathering with one. That is, unless I'm there.

Introduction
My name is Rachel Martin and I enjoy all things awesome. This blog will be my way of sharing all of the awesome things I see and hear with all of you! You are welcome in advance.
I am a senior at Oklahoma State University majoring in Sports Public Relations. This is my first blogging experience, so bear with me if this is a little awkward ;). I am excited to start sharing my ideas and hopefully getting feedback from all of you.
The things that interest me include but are not limited to: good music, Nike High Tops, dancing, anything mustache related (I will fill you in on what some people have told me is an "obsession" with stashes in later blogs), sports, and pretty much anything that is hilarious.
If you're wondering how I came up with the name for my blog, I'll fill you in. So this summer I hit the town, Joe's to be specific, on a Thursday night with my partner in fly, Kasey. I'll paint you a word picture of our attire. We were both wearing different pairs of Nike Dunks and I believe mustache t-shirts that we created ourselves. We were approached and told we were "Swagging off the Richter" by a stranger. Needless to say we both agreed it was the best compliment we had ever recieved. This clever phrase has been in a vocabulary ever since. Thank you 40-something year old man, I owe you one.
