“what is this exactly?”

Most of you reading this probably know me. Maybe you don’t. Either way, you are probably wondering “what is this exactly?” A blog from a seventeen-year-old girl? A blog from a privileged white seventeen-year-old girl? In short, yes, but maybe this privileged seventeen-year-old girl has things to say too. I’ve always been a writer. Whether it was in my journal or a creative writing piece for school or my own private poetry collection, writing is my way of expressing myself. I have found myself depending on it even more since I stopped dancing, which was such a huge creative outlet for me. I have created a blog before, an anonymous one that has since been taken down, but I was never brave enough to post the link anywhere or show anyone; I have since been inspired by an “older girl” I used to dance with and won a world championship title with, Riley Hostutler. If you have not checked out her blog, writing, and marketing skills already, please do; she is an incredible writer and shares herself so freely that I feel inspired to do the same and share my own experiences (chronic illness, losing friends, dying my hair every color possible, etc.). So again you are asking “what is this exactly?” It’s a place where I can express things I have learned and am still learning on this journey of life (not to be too dramatic). So, read it… don’t read it… that part doesn’t really affect me. I am just going to keep doing what I’m doing and you should too :)
