The long, yet necessary, introductory post.

Well, look what we've created here.
A blog. Seems like the thing to do these days doesn't it?
I'm not sure what my blog is going to be about exactly. But it will probably just be scraps of writing, insight into my life, bits of art here and there, fashion, and photographs. A diary of sorts, but with the honesty that can only come from an anonymous person on the internet.
Wow, those last 5 words just put me in the same category as stalkers and creepers, at least, it sounds like it. I'll never refer to myself as that again. Lol.

So a bit about my life...hmm.
Like most, it's very complicated, yet very simple.
So much happens, but when you get to telling people about it its as though nothing has happened at all and you're a very boring person. I guess I would consider myself to be a very imaginative person. I don't really pay attention (my grades in high school paid for that), and most of the time when someone is talking to me I look like I'm listening, but for the record, I'm probably not, I'm off in my own little world.
I love to read, and everything I read fuels my imagination. It's both good and bad. I create people in my mind, characters you could call them, although they don't seem like characters to me, just people, and then I find myself comparing my friends to these characters in my head and they always come up inadequate.

I broke my ankle in January. At a show. So I couldn't walk for 3 months. Then I needed crutches. Then I broke my ankle again in a different spot. So I couldn't walk for another three months. So that brings us to August. I'm finally on my feet and thinking 'Where has the year gone?'
But I came to a realization, see, when you are unable to walk and are forced to stay at home for days at a time, you do a lot of thinking. Like, I mean, an INSANE amount of thinking. I mostly read books, which furthered my thinking. And I came to the conclusion that I was actually grateful for my injuries.
It made me realize so much about the friends I had, the interests I had, the plans I had, and most importantly, I realized so much about myself, because I spent so much time on my own. In a way, I got to know me, what I really liked and disliked, my own personal style, the way I think etc.

I still can't really tell you what I'm like, because it is very complicated.
People can tell people what others are like, but when it comes to themselves it becomes an impossible task.
I think I have actually grown to really like myself. And as they say. You can't love someone until you love yourself.
And that is one thing I would like. To love someone. To find someone that is like me, except completely different. I see photos of couples and read stories and it's like it's become a group that I so desperately want to join. These people are so lucky. It really is like an elite group of people that I wish to be a part of one day.

So this blog will be kind of like a journey. With stories and photos I find on the way, things that influence me, make me happy, make me sad, things that happen in my life, my thoughts. It will also be filled with books, because, well, that's who I am. I'm the girl people go to for advice on a good book to read. There will probably be a few in-depth thoughts. Because sometimes I think so much I just have to write it down. If anyone ends up reading this there will be questions as well I hope. Because I like reading how other people think, because I've been told my own way is strange.

So this was the long, unnecessary, yet completely necessary introduction to my blog.
Hi, my name is Bridget :)
Nice to meet you.
