ABOUT THE BLOG

WHY

I’ve always loved writing. I started my blog as a way to get involved with people everywhere while still keeping a online “diary” which is how I see this darn, narcissistic habit (just kidding, kind of). Also, I’ve had so many failed attempts with diaries that I figured if it was online, I’d have more incentive to actually keep it up. So far, so good.

THE NAME

The name is just what it sounds like: thoughts from the mind of a teenage girl. I thought it’d be a good way to sum up what the blog really is without being too cliche or punny (ha, ha) so no one would get it. It’s a collection of my thoughts and opinions, whether it be a little anecdote of what’s happening lately, something that I don’t like, or just a random post that I thought would be interesting (hopefully).

SITES

I’m really antsy about my layout, host site, and all that jazz, so I move. A LOT. I’ve made and deleted my LiveJournal and Blogger accounts. I started out on LiveJournal and that lasted…one day. I don’t know why I even started there; I think it’s because I didn’t do my research. Then I moved to Blogger, where I wrote about 10 posts. I liked Blogger, but what I didn’t like was the impersonal nature of it. I felt like my blog belonged to Blogger instead of just being powered by Blogger. So then I moved to WordPress which is BY FAR the best platform. This is my second layout on WordPress because I’m still figuring out how to upload different themes (not just the ones they give you) and I was bored of the old layout. So in short, I got off to a weird start, but I’m going to be sticking around on WordPress for awhile now.

SO…YEAH

I write from my brain and my heart. Writing is a kind of therapy for me. I hope that through this blog, my ideas and thoughts will be useful, inspiring, funny, or just lift your spirits.
