The Very First Post

I'm not a Drama Queen. I swear that I'm not. Drama appears to be attracted to me, not the other way around. Why have I started a blog? Because I need somewhere to post all that teen angst (Duh!). Isn't this that we do in the new world? We don't keep notebooks of journals (secretly in the hopes that someday they will be found -hopefully after death- and published as a memoir). No. Now we can post things on the internet for the world to see as our stories unfold.

So I guess in writing this I am becoming some sort of cliché teenage girl? Or is keeping a blog some indie and/or hipster thing?

Is this the part when I introduce/describe myself? Well, I'm a white bunny in a snow storm. I'm a shadow in the dark. I'm in the background of even my own story. Is this considered teen angst yet? Does every teenager feel like an outsider? It's the underdeveloped brain, isn't it? Are we really all outsiders? (More importantly, do I ask too many rhetorical questions?). Honestly, I'm seventeen. I'm in the final stretch of my high-school career. I have absolutely no fashion sense. I'm definitely not sporting inclined (also somewhat anti-cheerleader). I like writing (but suck at it). I read more than I probably should, considering the proximity of exams. I excessively buy nail polish. Also, just to extend my embarrassment  further, I still keep my childhood teddy bear (aptly named Pinky). So take that world. (Also I appear to be rather fond of brackets)

My mum named me Adelaide and my father was apparently too whipped to challenge her, (but apparently not whipped enough to avoid cheating on her 4 years later). It was not a coincidence that we lived a couple of hours from the city (Adelaide) at the time of my birth. Thankfully we moved to Sydney, New South Wales before I reached school age (the only good thing that came of my father's infidelity). For the record, I prefer Ada, and I suppose this is as good an introduction as any. I'll post as often as possible because... Why the hell not?

Until Next Time, 

Ada xx
