Merry Meet.
I'm Isabeau, I'm 20 years old and I'm trying to save my life.
Wow... that sounds dramatic. But it's true. For a very long time I tried to be what society/my family/my friends wanted and expected of me. I was severely unhappy and felt my true self slipping away. After awhile, I reached a breaking point where I just had to scream "FUCK IT" and do what I needed to do. I got out of a very toxic and self-damaging relationship (that was six months ago and it still hurts. I often wonder if I did the right thing), I finished high school (2 years later than normal and I scraped through, it had become so tedious I just wanted to get through it alive) and applied for a course that I wanted to do (community services and welfare, I want to be a social worker and save the world), instead of marrying my fiance (Yes, I got engaged at 19) and applying for a course where I am guarantied a job and a steady income... blah blah blah.
I start my welfare course on Monday and I'm nervous. I'm excited too, don't get me wrong, but I am still really nervous. I really want this year to be different and it is up to me to make it so...
So I'm going to stop rambling now...
Merry Part and Blessed Be
