Hallaaa!

I shall begin by telling you that this is my official introduction to the world of blogging, something that I have intended to do since the ripe age of about twelve when I first dabbled in creative writing. In hind sight I am incredibly glad I did not inflict my "skills" upon others before now, it would've only been embarrassing. Seriously, I had a mild obsession with Hanson and was a pubescent and hormonal drama queen! I still have my old journals: embarrassing.

Anyway...some things you might like to know: my name is Stephanie and I have managed to stay alive for 20 years! Accomplishment? Yes...but I do happen to have a few others under my belt so we will get to that later (if I am able to maintain your interest). I suppose I am funny variety of human being, often described by my nearest and dearest as strange or weird - but in a good way! Mustn’t overlook that! So; strange, weird and perhaps a little annoying yet...endearing? I have deduced that such attributes have been given to me due to my highly animated personality, mild lack of inhibition and general clumsy demeanour, all of which equals a mystery bag of nonsense and nonsensical Stephanie behaviours! Sometimes. I can also be quite serious and am, on occasion, instructed to 'chill out'. Basically, I'm a little manic.

In terms of what to look forward to in relation to my blog (besides my obvious wit and infectious banter) I have a variety of interests. Whilst studying English & Sociology at university, I spend my time mostly in Aberdeen, Glasgow and Shetland and spend my thoughts mostly on...what to write about. I love reading and particularly enjoy writing the odd poem and song here and there. My guitar contributes to this endeavour and often accompanies me to open mic nights in Glasgow (so far). I am a fan of music and films and tea and I have a focused interest on people and relationships and relationships between people and groups and people and things and people and other people...I am also rather passionate about matters relating to fashion and...environmental issues (instilled in me from my days as Scotland's Earth Champion of 2002, woo, more on that later!)

So, yes. I have many ideas and plenty of words that I plan to share with you (whoever you are, kind person taking the time to read this!) After all, sharing is caring so lets drink some tea and stuff...

Byeee!
