Bio
Who am I?
I'm a 22 year old on the roller coaster ride called life. I attend Lamar University in Beaumont, TX with the hopes of become an interpreter for the Deaf. I'm awkward as can be, an avid user of the word "y'all," and obsessed with movies.
Why am I here?
I am a shy person in general and never really speak my mind to people because I can never explain or portray what I'm thinking. I feel like writing in a blog regularly will help that.
I also like to keep record of all the weird and absurd things I say and then look back at them and ask myself if I really wrote that.
I want to share my thoughts and ideas with people and see how they respond.
Why did I want to start blogging?
One week before I started blogging, I went to a literary festival at my school to receive extra credit for a class.I figured I would just go and get it over with and not really get anything valuable from it. One of the speakers named Steve Sherwood really spoke to me. He said the way he starts writing is to find something unique and personal that only he has gone through. As I'm sitting there, I start thinking of all these things I could write of. I could share my story and views to other people.
I've never really liked the idea of writing, because my teachers wouldn't make it a fun activity. I would simply write my papers and try and get the best possible grades. After hearing him speak, I became inspired and wanted to write.
I'm hoping I can become a better writer as well as share my thoughts and unique experiences to other people.
