Why I am blogging...


Hi there & Welcome! :)

As of right now I have 0 followers, which is okay being that I've completed a total of 0 posts (I think they kind of go hand in hand). Maybe it's just that no one is interested in what I have to say, which that is fine with me as well.


After a year of trying to be an adult in a very unbearable situation and seeing how I didn't want my life to be I took a step back and looked at how my life was going and where I wanted to make a change. In a short period of time I had basically turned myself into a hermit crab and ruined relationships that had taken years to build. I knew a change needed to come and it needed to come ASAP. So I worked with what I had left and I tried to bandage up those I had hurt and relationships I had ruined by shutting everyone out. I realized that for years, for my entire college career (not like it's been terribly long or anything...) I have been doing what everyone else says and following someones dream that was not mine. This was step one.

I was studying nursing for the first 2 years of college. Although I respect the career and it would be an honorable job, it's not me. I'm a writer. I am an expressionist. I am an artist. Here is my new template. I knew if I was going to get better I needed to talk and get my words out... even if no one listened. I re-watched the entire series of One Tree Hill (HUGE fan here!) and realized that's what Peyton did with her podcast. She just talked about life and her thoughts to anyone who would listen, even if that was no one. I've seen celebrities on blogs and I liked how they could talk about anything and reach out to so many people. So here I am.

I'm not here to try to be a celebrity or be a psychiatrist. I'm not even going to promise I'll be interesting (I hope I am though!).

I am now studying to be a journalist and finding myself in my own words. It's been too long since I've known ME. I must say though, I'm enjoying this thing already! :) So please, come- listen to me, respond to me, follow me, or stay anonymous.

I'd love to have you,
Bre
