here we go.....

Already feeling overwhelmed. Off to a smooth start.

Maybe I should just try to give a few facts about myself... Is this okay? How're we doing? I don't know. I'm just gonna go for it.

1. I am a Christian, saved by grace through faith alone. My life revolves (to the best of my abilities) around him and his will for me.

2. I am the second oldest of six.......... I'm not even sure how I'm still surviving, but I wouldn't have it another way.

3. I am a..... very devoted fangirl. But this is another topic for another day. (Believe me, it will come up in later posts.)

4. I love to read, write, and draw (so original.), although I tend to waste a lot of my precious time on the internet instead.

5. I had the best childhood ever. I grew up/am still growing up in rural North Carolina, running barefoot on trails through the woods, eating popsicles on the back porch with our cousins, occasionally going swimming in the river. I could go on. My childhood is probably very romanticized in my mind.

Well, I've wanted to start a blog for a while, but never really knew where to start. Not really sure why I'm starting now (especially since it's during the middle of the school year) but I'm hoping that I'll keep up with it, even it just serves as a vent for my feelings or a reason to write. Who knows! Anyway, hoping this whole blog thing won't just fizzle out and die. At least I've got it started. Here we go...!

ps. 'summer of 1999' is when I was born. Which means I'm fifteen now. Just in case you wanted to know.
