My First Blog!

whoo hoo!!!I have officially joined the land of blog.Sigh...
Just needed someplace to vent.It`s kinda nice and somewhat cathartic to be able to sort through all the random thoughts that are constantly going through my head and record them for posterity.Lol.
Have been so bummed out lately.I feel like I`m suffocating.I literallywoke up one day not so long ago and was just overwhelmed by how dissatisfied I am with my life.I used to live and breathe dance, music and art (painting,I suck at drawing).Hell,I even used to be prolific writer;some of my teachers liked my stuff so much they used to make me read it for the rest of the class.Now it`s pretty much been beaten out of me.After years of going the "safe" route,having let myself be persuaded to put it all on hold in order to pursue my studies(don`t get me wrong,an education is extremely important),I now feel creatively drained and lost.Fortunately,I was able to talk to someone about it last week who helped me so much by just listening to me rant and helping put it all in perspective.I going to take his advice and spend some time each day in peace and quiet in order to reconnect with myself and gradually allow the creative juices to start flowing again.Certain people,my mother in particular,have yet to come to grips with the fact that those things were never mere hobbies for me.It`s who I am.And right now,my biggest fear is that if I continue like this,one day I`ll look in the mirror and I won`t recognize myself...
