THE INTERVIEW:

ESG: What is the name of your blog?
TG: That Girls Site - http://thatgirlssite.com

ESG: How old is your blog?
TG: It's about 3 and a half years old, however, I slacked a lot during its first year or so.

ESG: What do you blog about?
TG: My blogs subjects are about as random as I am and they change on a daily basis. Some days its gaming news other days its videos of cats doing funny things, there's a variety if things to be found there. I post about things that interest me which are video games, horror movies, zombies, cute animals, people doing funny things, comics, toys, anime, manga, TV, cupcakes, t-shirts, sneakers, some more horror movies.

ESG: Name some or one of your accomplishments made possible due to your personal profession:
TG: I recently took part in Extra Life which was an event put together by Sarcastic Gamer to help raise money to help the fight against pediatric cancer, my site is small but I managed to raise a little over $500 toward the cause and that was something that I was happy to take part in. I also made it on to a brief (car confessional) spot on G4 talking about what games on the E3 floor I liked.

ESG: What is your motive/inspiration for bloggin?
TG: At first it was boredom which then grew in to a hobby. I love blogging now, my favorite part about it is coming across something funny- posting it- and people commenting that they also found it funny. I like spreading laughter.

ESG: Name some or one of your goals pertaining to your personal profession:
TG: I didn't originally set out with any specific goals, I just wanted to try and create something that people found entertaining. Though, after a while I found myself wanting to cover more events, try to learn video editing to add more original content things like that. I like the idea of the using the site as a reason to learn new things, play more video games, and watch more movies... you know, so that I have stuff to post about 0:)

ESG: Any words you would like to extend to our/your readers?
TG: Never stick your face in a bag full of angry squirrels.
