If you actually clicked on the link to my blog,then thanks a lot.I'll tell you a little about myself,so you don't think i'm a pedofile or a robot or something similar.We've already established that my name is Allie.I live on Long Island,which is alright,but I can't wait to get out of here and on with my life.In my group of friends,i'm the sarcastic/dependable friend.I'm the one who feels sympathy very easily-i'll give everything I have to give someone effective advice or comforting.I don't hold grudges,I don't play mind games,and I don't like hurting people's feelings.But I don't let myself get stepped on either.If you're disrespecting or hurting me,you're going to know.I love skiing,alternative music,fashion,reading,and New York City.All I want in life is to be happy, and make the people around me feel good.
I've been preparing myself for my last year of High School at the moment,which is exciting but makes me very anxious at the same time.For the past year,my life has consisted of tons of over-thinking,hopelessness,confusion, and realization.Last Summer I realized what I wanted to do with my life-which is become a writer-and it was then my journey began as a stir-crazy,unfulfilled,emotional mess.They don't fuck around when they say that Junior year is the hardest year of High School-IT IS.I could have never prepared myself for the shit I was going to go through emotionally.Besides having to do the normal Junior year activities,I took on way more than I could handle,not thinking about what a toll it would take on me.Which was a bad idea.Now i'm trying to turn everything around and get back to my positive and easy-going self.But it's not easy,and I don't expect it to be.The reason i'm starting this is because I know i'm not alone.When all of this started with me last year,I started writing a book.I know a 16 year old writing a book sounds ridiculous,but I told you i'm not like everyone else.My purpose of writing it was to make us all realize how similar us teens are,and maybe even some parents/adults would pick it up(HAHA) and realize how much bullshit we have to go through to please them.All of us teens go through way much more than any other age group has had to,and i'm tired of it being normal and okay.I'm tired of seeing depression, and anxiety, and disorders, be such a common thing among us.I want the shit to hit the fan,and I want it to be a big slap in the face to adults who think all of this is "A phase", "Hormones", and "Not a big deal".Adults don't know what the fuck they're talking about until they live the lives we do.Writing to myself has been good therapy(In journals,notes,microsoft word, etc.),but I think it's time for me to actually be able to communicate with other teenagers.I can't write a book about being a young adult without hearing a ton of stories and perspectives,it seems only natural.And I thought I would finally give in to the 21st century way of communicating-a blog.I'm not doing this solely for the book though;I know there's a .0001% chance that it'll actually get published.I really do want to hear about your experiences,your feelings,your aspirations,i'm up for it all.Even if it never gets published,i'll be glad to hear so many different points of view.That is if this actually works out...
If you're wondering what i'm actually going to write on here,it's pretty simple.I'll mostly write my observations and thoughts,i'll ask questions to see who feels the same way I do and who doesn't.Sometimes i'll get deep with emotions,sometimes i'll post a picture of a really awesome pair of shoes.I don't want this blog to be for me,I want it to be for all of us.I want us to connect,to feel like were not alone,to see how we are all going through the same general experience.Never hesitate to open up to me or ask for advice,i'm not a bitch I swear.You don't know how much i'll appreciate it.This isn't just some big emotion-fest though,I want this to be fun.I just want this to be a place you can go to when you need some positivity and good vibes in your life.
So I hope you're still interested after reading all of this.You don't know how much it means to me.
Love to you all<3
