So I guess I need to journal again. When I think about losing all the entries on a previous online journal, I feel like I lost a lot. A friend suggested it made him not want to write again, but I’m more scared of losing memories. I fear the 5+ years of memories will drift away, unable to be relived.
Now my life is much less interesting, but I grew up. Still, I miss being able to relive my teenage ramblings. Now it’s time to ramble about my twenties. Hopefully my ramblings will lead to me to confront my feelings more, something I feel I struggle with these days.
So here I am with a purpose, a goal. I want to be able to express myself without the subconscious censorship that comes with social media. Too often the eyes of people emotionally close to us can be a burden. I want a better medium.
The inevitable awkwardness of a first entry has hit me, so I guess I’ll ramble on about myself the best I can.
I live with my parents (which I’m desperately trying to change) in a relatively small town in Mississippi and just graduated from an even smaller college that I’m extremely proud if. It took me a long time to be serious about academics, and I owe it all to my education at said college. Corny, I know. I got a degree an English, just finished my student teaching, and am now trying to get a job, the usual for a twenty-something year old. Obviously, I love literature and the English languages as a whole. However, I’m not a writer at least not in the creative sense. I learned how to write, but I learned how to write essays.
I suck at transitions. I have two dogs that I’m bat shit obsessed with. The youngest I adopted with my boyfriend over the summer. The oldest is my boyfriend’s dog from his past marriage. They both live with me part time, basically whenever I can steal them. They are, by far, the light of my life.
I also adore music like most people. I feel like this part of my life has been missing lately. I’m trying to be healthy, but I don’t think this will become a fitness blog. I love craft beer and wine. I have a great family that I mostly get along with. I’m extremely lazy. I’m trying to cope with depression and anxiety. I love to teach although I have such little experience. I love to play video games and am team Sony. I want equality but am hesitant to label myself as anything. I hate arguments. I love to eat and cook food. I Don’t have much to say about myself.
