Dear Blog Readers,
I feel this must be a good way to start any blog. But the truth is I really have little to no idea. As I am sure you can tell from my bare looking blog, this is my first post. I have read about three blogs in my whole life. But, tonight have felt inspired to write my first blog ever. Although I have chosen the very uninspiring, very unoriginal topic of "Not knowing how to write a blog" for my first post, I do however, have the intention of documenting my very chaos filled, awkward and clumsy attempt to get through life. But, I am sure that this will take a great amount of confidence to building up to.
Also, find above a picture of me. Its hard to find a picture of yourself that you feel that encapsulates your personality and every colour of the spectrum that you can be as a person. So I decided to choose a picture of myself that would automatically put myself off someone if I saw their picture and see where we go from there really.
Curious to what the creation of this blog really says about me as a person and I have composed a list of the things that spring to mind:
1) Only a self absorbed person can right a blog surely? Built on the assumption people want to hear what you have to say and that your opinion is valued?2) You believe your life to be exciting and entertaining enough for people to want to read about?3) You are a whiny person who wants to whine to others.4) You are one of life's very happy very positive people who want to tell everyone about your perfect life.
These are the assumptions I have of the type of person who writes a blog and I cannot wait to hear from you and for people to tell me how wrong I am. I am looking forward to the prospect of writing the blog for myself and to hear some kind of feedback (Good or Bad). And I am also looking forward to reading other blogs and really getting a sense of what this blogging is really about. I have not told my friends or my family about writing this blog. I will see how things go. I am not sure if this will serve to be a blog serves as a diary for my sad and lonely life or as another social media outlet that I wont use in a weeks time similar to my experience of the shite that was Tumblr.
I guess I want to talk about my experiences as the following:1) A student2) A sufferer of anxiety3) A Woman of 6ft 4) The awkward personality traits I have5) My Travels6) The books I've read 7) The films I have watched.
I think the above things will give me a real sense of what it is I want to write about. However, I will see how it goes, no promises.
Writing is supposed to be relieving and relaxing. However the five minutes I have taken to write this have been one of the most cringy things I have ever had to do. Second to sniffing a strangers baby's nappy in the middle of a shop.
Thanks Folks!Gracie
