Introducing The Author

Hello to anyone who happens to wander through. This page is just a short introduction to the person whose thoughts are to be found within the posts here. Before I really get started I want to share with you all something a friend said to me, because it really meant a lot to me.

"I just wanted to let you know, that your blog has inspired me.
Since I'm not brave enough to throw my thoughts out there
to the wide world of the internets I bought a new special journal,
 that I plan to fill with all the nonsensical things in my head, and
maybe some of the sensible things as well. 
Maybe when I'm done I'll actually have something worth reading.
So thank you <3"

I am a person who has a great number of opinions and the things I believe in, I tend to believe in very strongly. I very rarely intend to slander someone else's opinion and I only ever intend to do so when the opinion is something racist or otherwise something that effects others negatively. One of the strong beliefs I have is that people in general do not put anywhere near an appropriate amount of effort into respecting others opinions so I try very hard to not be a hypocrite in that respect. If you don't like something I like or vice versa, I'm not going to shove it down your throats. I will however be writing frustrated blog posts in which I get really worked up about certain things, but 99% of the opinions I will be expressing here are just my own thoughts and I am in no way expecting everyone to agree with me.

I don't think I'm very special, I really have not led an extraordinary life. I grew up in a small town, where we didn't even have enough kids in town to fill the high school so we had to get kids from about 10-13 other nearby towns. And by nearby towns I mean that there were people from towns 45 minutes north AND south of the school. As of August 21, 2010 I am 20 years old, I tend to not really identify myself as male or female but I am definitely closer to the booby side of the spectrum even though I was born as a member of the male sex. I live in Canada, I love animals, I eat way too much junk food and play way too many video games.

The purpose of this blog is essentially for me to figure out what my life is.I want to have something I can go back to, look at and say; "This is how I changed. This is what I've learned. This was my journey, my adventure, this was me trying to find my way." I want to find answers to who I am and where I'm going and just wanted to put it out here so that maybe if I do discover something someday it might be of help to someone else (though mostly all I've done so far is complain about stuff).

I am still trying and I am still on my journey, even if it feels sometimes like I'm standing still or going backwards. Even if I end up back at the start a hundred times, there's nothing I can do but take another first step and hope that I'll get somewhere this time.
