This is the twentieth title I've written

Well... hello. Welcome. Grab a virtual chair, fluff up the pixelated cushions. Seriously, make yourself at home.

This will be the first blog of many. Maybe. Yes. I think so. Okay, there will be many depending on how long it takes me to figure out that I'm really just talking to myself... and putting the madness online.

BUT. Until then, allow me to introduce myself. I am goldfish_lovin. I prefer to remain anonymous partly because I'm worried that I may be moved to a mental facility once my acquiantences realize the depth of my oddness, and partly because I like to be... mysterious. (inserts dramatic face here). So yeah. The basics: I'm a high school senior (female) with a passion for writing and too much to think about. A splendid combination, is it not?

If I haven't bored you to the point where you've already gone to check your facebook three times while reading this, then I'd like to go on and explain why I've begun to write this blog.

In numbered order to ease the distractable soul:

1. boredom
2. to exchange advice with fellow writers
3. to share funny stories and thoughts
4. to talk about myself without worrying about people leaving midconversation (or knowing about them leaving)
5. HOMEWORK AVOIDANCE
6. feedback? We'll see if anybody actually bothers to read this

So yeah. That's me. I tend to ramble. But that's okay. I'm going to attempt to keep this blog running no matter how many empty seats try and suffocate my dreams. I'd like to see them try and stop me. I'd like to see them try.
