Hi friends!
I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while, but I never really thought I had the time. I've noticed in the past year or so that writing really helps me think through my life, and sort out things that I otherwise couldn't. So, I guess that's how this little blog was born! I was looking for an outlet to express myself, and there are a few things I'm learning along the way that might help some of you too. My friend mentioned to me last night that I should think about starting a blog, and I thought... why the heck not?!
So, in case you don't know me, my name is Ally, and I am a third year Theatre Studies and French student at Dalhousie University. I am a campus representative for the amazing Wear Your Label (use Ally15 to get 15% off :) ), I am a residence assistant, and a full-time klutz. I have a big heart, and a lot to say, but I often get overwhelmed when speaking in public, so I guess this is a way for me to share some of what I'm thinking. I am a mental health advocate, a self-care advocate, and learning to love my weirdness (and myself!). I've got a long road ahead of me, but I'm super excited for the journey, and I hope you'll be able to take something from my experiences along the way. I'm currently recovering from an anxiety disorder, and it's been quite the few months, but I am finally loving what I am doing, and ready to face the world again, stronger than ever. This blog will be a little bit of everything, from mental health, to self-care, student life, but mostly just my experiences trying to navigate the world. :)
Hugs,
- A
