I thought long and hard about what my opening post should be, and I'm not entirely impressed with how it seems to be going so far, I sound way more formal than I intended to but oh well, I'm sure I'll improve in time! I thought I'd give a little introduction, a kind of summary if you like, although I'm currently doubting whether many people will actually ever read this.
Firstly, my name is not actually 'Ruthelia', it's just Ruth. I'm 19 years old and I'm about to start university. The boredom aspect of my life that I previously mentioned, comes from this endless summer holiday with few friends and even fewer amounts of money. I mean I'm not totally dull, I do have hobbies: I'm arty and I love sewing and textiles; I like reading, if a book is good I will sit all day reading it and barely move then not sleep until I finish it (geeky I know); I love going places and walking my dog all over, exploring, seeing and doing. I wouldn't really say I'd ever 'fitted in' with the crowd as such, I am myself, I don't like something just because everyone else does. For example I'd rather have a night in with my family watching a film than going down town to get drunk, I'd rather walk than take the bus, I prefer youtubers to kardashians, I'd rather wear vans than heels, and I always choose colourful patterned clothes over mainstream fashion.
I plan to post on this blog around once a week. I wouldn't say I've thought of a theme yet though, more like bits and bobs. Feelings, thoughts, experiences and my day-to-day life. I'll be posting about struggles I've gone through and how I've overcome them, as well as positives, things I like, and well just a big mix of things really. I don't expect anyone to read every single one (or any tbh) just pick and choose as you like :)
Thank you for reading,
Ruth x
P.s I feel like I'm writing some sort of essay here rather than just a blog post, I don't actually talk this formally I think it's just because I have no idea who I'm writing for so sorry, I'll be more friendly next time I promise :p
