The reason behind writing...

Alrighty my first ever blog! Aghhhh what do I write? I could start with an (extremely late) 'October Favourites' post,  a 'What's in my bag?', a 'Winter Essentials' or even a make-up review! So many choices!! But instead, I'm going to write about writing.

You might be a bit confused...well I am too. What do I even mean by that? I don't know. However what I'm attempting to say is that this post is all about why I love to write. :)

I've always loved writing. Ever since I was a little cutie (it's debateable) primary school kid, I have loved writing. Creative writing has always been a favourite, getting to write about anything, letting your imagination run wild and free! Thinking back, it was all I looked forward to when I walked through the massive (compared to my tiny 6 year old self) black gates and into school. One day I would be putting my pen onto paper to describe a bear that lived in the woods close by, the next it would be me writing my own versions of my favourite story books. My creativity was endless.

But sadly, primary school was were the writing finished. As I began high school I was no longer aloud to interpret a jelly fishes' view on the world, in my English lessons; instead I had to write long essays discussing why an author of a poem, consisting of three pages, had placed a coma at the end of his 40th line. What!? How could I now be creative, inspired and imaginative? They were telling me to show my individuality, however they weren't letting me be my true self, express the dreams that were swirling round inside my pea-sized head. Instead I had to conform, if I want to achieve my 'target grade' then I have to hit all the criteria.

So this brings us to now...And the actual, more real, reason I have begun this blog. It's the one place I can express my creativity but also share it with people, experience what others think. With a few 'Life', 'Beauty' and 'Fashion' post thrown into this very pink #bloggersphere, this is where you and I can really show our imagination as writers! :D
