Publisher: Chant3llo's Blog - Blogger, student, dog mom, lover of all things beautiful...and even not so beautiful. #Love #Buffalo & #Rochester Laughing is everything...

My name is Chantelle and I am the blogger, writer, owner, publisher, nerd and all of that other fun stuff at Chant3llo’s Blog! What is a Chant3llo, well Chan-tell-oh is just a fun way to mush my first name and last name together a nickname given to me by a coworker and I kind of love it. I liked it enough to buy the domain and turn it into a blog…so much for anonymity! Chantello.com was taken by I don’t know who and Chantelle.com is a French underwear company…so I was left with this semi-l33t, incredibly dorky version of my name Chant3llo. I am a 27 year old, non-traditional student who lives in the Buffalo area of Western New York. I go to the University at Buffalo and love, love, love it (except the parking). I wish I could be a student forever and learn it all – but…no. I have five siblings (yes five and all from the same parents!), although we have our differences but we love each other dearly (most of the time…). I am lucky enough to have both of my parents still with me and even though we find each other mildly/very annoying I don’t know what I would do if I lost them. I could literally write anything about them here, because they never read this…but I wouldn’t do that. After my divorce, I have one lovely little Japanese Chin pup named Spot! He is such a goofy, sweetheart and I am so glad I still have one of my doggies in my life (although I wish I had them all!)! I am one of those people that tries to make everything pretty, I adore really good food (who doesn’t??) and I am slightly obsessed with my hair (including the stray gray ones!). I am convinced I make the best pasta (other than my grandmas!) and as you can tell by my photo I am no stranger to eating the pasta I make! I love video games, makeup, decorating and cleaning (I really enjoy cleaning…it’s a bit odd). I am not the least bit graceful and am no stranger to falling UP stairs – update April 2014 – I am becoming more graceful from doing yoga AND I have been lucky enough to not fall up the stairs for quite some time now!
