I am me, and this is my blog. Ideally, I would have loved my first post to be a definitive moment for what the content of "Diary of a Dreamer" will be, so that those of you reading could decide whether or not you identify with or are interested in my ramblings and comments. Unfortunately though, my thoughts and conversations are about as random and confused as myself, a new university graduate, at the age of 22. What I can tell is about now is my interests, which include: fashion, celebrity culture, music, film, TV, Edward Cullen and writing. There are many more (my I sound shallow don't I) but to summarize my passions into a quick list, those seven things are what quickly come to mind.
Outside of my interests, I believe I can define my personal self in just one word: dreamer. I have been a dreamer for as long as I can remember, really. At 2 years old, my first best friend was my shadow. I named her BaBa (said exactly as it reads) and enjoyed talking to her, my wall reflected self, for hours on end. After watching the Little Mermaid for the first time I really, truly, honestly believed deep down that I too would one day befriend a talking crab and roam the murky waters of Lake Huron with long, flowing hair. When asked what I wanted to do when I grew up, my instant answer was always "Mermaid". My dreams may have changed slightly from that time to now, but to this day, a fantastical world exists in my head where I can do anything I want to do, or be anything I want to be. Presently, that would be Kristen Stewart so I could shack up with Robert Pattinson in sunny L.A. Sigh. Or, more realistically, I would be a writer who had the freedom to travel the world and see as much as possible before I reach my thirtieth birthday.
For now though, I am just me- a young woman figuring out her next move in a time of uncertainty, competition, and promise.
Until next time, my friends, dream on.
