Let's Do This.

Hello! Bonjour! Ciao! Welcome to my very first blog post!

This is the post where I'm supposed to extravagantly introduce myself and all of my remarkable personal qualities that you really could care less about, so to save us both a little bit of time I'm just going to skip over all of that. You're welcome.

The short: My name is Julia, I'm nineteen years old, and I'm from Ontario.

I mention the nineteen years old part so that my readers are aware of my life experience (or lack thereof) as well as so my posts make a little more sense in terms of where I'm at in life.

So... Why the hell have I created this website?

To be quite frank with you, I'm not too sure of that yet myself.

Basically, the past year or two have been the hardest of my life thus far - mentally, emotionally, physically... you get it.

Like every leading actress in a teenage drama film would say, I'm just trying to figure out who I am and where I belong in this crazy world I live in, and it hasn't been easy!!!

Throughout my struggles, I've drifted too far away from my true self, and it's time I take a pause on life and everything going on around me in order to revisit who I really am.

Where does this blog come in?

Well, the one thing that I am sure of, in regards to myself, is my passion and appreciation for writing!

As someone who has a lot to say, I've always felt my happiest when expressing my thoughts and feelings with a pen and paper.

Before you recommend your favourite notebook brands, I've recently realized that I want to be able to share those thoughts and feelings with others who may be at a similar place in life, struggling with all-too-common young adult battles, or who simply just need an extra little boost at the end of their day sometimes.

So, I'm not too sure exactly what type of content you're going to find here, but I truly hope that whatever it is, it will be able to spark some laughs, tears, and help someone out there who is looking to rediscover their joys in life, too.

And voila! You've made it to the end! Not so bad, was it?

Hopefully I've done a good enough job of enticing you into this blog (I really tried!!), and I hope you'll follow me along on this journey and learn a thing or two about yourself, and how to survive in this world with a smile on your face.

Let's do this.
