My name is Krissy and this is my blog! I live in Charlottesville, VA with my darling hubby and enjoy utilizing social media to make/keep in touch with friends, learn about new places and stay connected with the world around me.
I started out writing this particular blog as an offshot of my wedding blog (we planned our DIY wedding in Orlando, Florida for under $10K, including honeymoon!) and has morphed into a place where I talk about some of my most favorite things, including RUNNING, DISNEY, GRAD SCHOOL and other pursuits…
You’re welcome to follow along the journey, and for more up-to-the-minute updates on me, follow me on twitter @krissymmurphy .
Please leave a comment or email me if you have anything you want to share! I get back to every message
khiguchi (at) gmail (dot) com! I’d love to hear from you!!

Hi! New visitor… I was curious why you chose the title of your blog…. Are you interested in japanese?
First, welcome! Second: great question! I am actually part Japanese (from my mom and dad) but also Chinese and “American” (Mixed Caucasian descent.)
For the actual titling, I wrote a short blog post here: http://shiawaselife.wordpress.com/2010/06/06/what-is-shiawase/
