Readers,
I write this assuming there are some of you, somewhere, actually reading the words that I am typing. I’m currently sitting in a brightly lit lecture hall, tuning out the incredibly intelligent man droning on and on in front of me. Will I fail the next exam? It’s possible! I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Anyways, you may have guessed it by now but if not I’m a college student. I go to a really amazing university deep in the heart of the middle of nowhere. 8 hours away from all of the people I adore. So, it gets lonely sometimes but the introverted side of me knows how comforting being alone is. I am studying psychology, which hopefully will show in my blog posts to follow as I navigate the inner workings of my brain and emotions. Then again, I’m not holding my breath.

I have a really awesome boyfriend, who I am sure will make an appearance in my posts and most likely (hopefully) be a devoted fan of my writing. I think I can also count on my mom and bestfriend to correct my spelling errors (at the very least). I’ll write more about them soon.

This the part where I talk about why I am starting a blog. I have tried numerous times to blog in the past, but I am my own harshest critic. Needless to say, my posts never stayed up for more than a few days and with that came the feelings of stupidity, embarrassment, and judgement. Since then I have grown a little bit and come to learn that… no one gives a f**k about me as much as I think they do. The woman at the supermarket has no idea that I post on a blog, nor does she care that I spelled the word embarrassment wrong. Twice. Thank you, spell check. I’ve also learned that overall it makes me feel… better and more relieved. And if I do have readers, even if it’s just one person, I hope that maybe you can connect with my stories and find a little hope in them. Or whatever it is you need to make yourself feel better.

I’ll try my best to not let things get too dark and twisty but, I do intend to be as genuine as possible. I would love to invite you all to my fantasy land where things are all sunshine and rainbows but, we all know real life isn’t that easy. Figuring that out can be crappy to say the least. I guess life would be boring if we didn’t have problems… right? I’ll pretend that you nodded your head.

For lack of better parting words I’ll end my first post with this: thank you for reading all the way to the end of this somewhat unorganized jumble of thoughts I have placed on the internet. Here’s hoping this blog lasts just a bit longer than the previous one.
