Real intro a moi
Hey bloggers, my name is Emily Hall and I'm going to tell you a little bit about myself. Right now I am a writer trying to get my views and stories into the world. I see myself as kind of an uptight hippie. I see myself that way because I am a vegetarian (since birth, though now I'm the only one left in my family) and because I am Buddhist- Agnostic. Some things that I think set me apart from others are things like that I have undiagnosed ADD. ADD stands for Attention Deficit Disorder, which means that I just have a harder time staying on focus than other people. It is undiagnosed because my mom and I don’t want me to be tested. My mom, because she doesn’t want me to have a label, she doesn’t want my teachers and peers to look at me as “the ADD kid”. Myself for of those same reasons, and because I don’t want to be on a medication that will suck away my creativity.
Another thing that sets me apart is the fact that I am chronically depressed. Chronic depression runs in my family. It affects me because when I don’t have something to keep my mind occupied, I become afraid and sad and start to separate myself from others. It is not something that is obvious, I don’t think, because I do an okay job occupying myself. It affects me positively in a sense that I feel and know that there is a deeper meaning to everything. I'm not quite sure why those two things relate, but I know that they do. I'm also an introvert. For someone who really knew me, you would think i was an extrovert, but I'm really not. that is why my blog entries may be kind of... not boring, but just not as loud. I'll be pretty open, but I'll most likley have kind of a hard time expressing myself. Sorry. Oops, im out of time! More later!
