An Introduction

Oh no! Another anxious teen writing about heart brake!

Not so, my dear reader! I am in fact and anxious TWENTY year old writing about heart brake.

Only joking! My hearts alright, I had an EKG done fairly recently and the old ticker is going strong. But that’s beside the point. I am here to entertain, to inform, and to perhaps enlighten those of you who may stumble across this insignificant slice of internet. But first, introductions.

My name’s Allison. A generic 90’s name that my parents picked seemingly without reason other than it went well next to my sisters; and so we were dubbed Molli and Allison. I grew up in Northern New York in a small town so close to Canada that you could smell the moose. The meese? God help me.

Though you are surly blown away by my charm-ehem-you’ll be pleased to know I am an introvert through and through. I read, I write, I don’t text back; basically that friend you tell “I miss you we should catch up sometime”, but never actually do. Don’t feel too guilty, we all do it.

I have very long hair. By long, I don’t mean gets-caught-in-your-backpack-straps long, I mean, sometimes-I-sit-on-it long. My therapist tells me I use it to hide from my problems, but really I just can’t afford a haircut and don’t trust myself with scissors.

I have attended exactly two colleges; the first fairly decent and the second really mediocre. I transferred after my freshman year because I was completely and utterly lost. Now I’m studying creative writing, and spending my life writing things like this. So yep, still lost.

I am a Taurus, whatever the hell that means. I don’t believe in the “all-knowing zodiac”, but if that’s your ish, don’t let that deter you. If you make a strong enough case for it, I will for sure reconsider. Let’s not forget that I am completely lost, and if I could tell my future from the stars, man, you bet I’d Galileo the heck outta my life.

Though seemingly uneventful, I have my fair share of hilariously unfortunate anecdotes that I would love to share, not only to fill these lonely hours spent contemplating what the hell I’m doing with my life, but hopefully to make you laugh, my lovely reader. So please, read on, laugh at my expense, and God help us, don’t make the same mistakes I have.

  1. Oh no!
    The first post, my last on the list to read.
    How will I sate my addiction? What about my fix?
    More than any other, I love your writing; I love the wit, the perceptions of life, your humor.
    If you ever publish a book, I would happily stand in line to buy it, I would even pay a premium for an autographed copy. In the interest of full disclosure, I may wait a couple weeks for the mad rush to die down, I don’t really want to stand in a line 6 city blocks long, time would not allow it, but, a copy of anything you publish will be mine.
    You are uncommonly special.
    I wish for you all joy, health, and prosperity in all you do.
    Thank you for your hard work and for being you, you are very appreciated.

      1. It is obvious, my thoughts for you and your creative mind. I love checking in here to read what you write.
        I will continue to check in, but I am leaving wordpress. I will go to your website directly, but don’t think I will be able to click on a like button, (which on your blog gets plenty of use on my keyboard) or even comment, but I will still be reading.
        I just wanted to say before I leave, the success you have made so far in your journey is worthy of pride; I am proud of your success. From some of the images your words have conjured up of what you were like at that time, to now, being The Very Picture of health and beauty, your transformation is incredible, and I am happy for you. You VS1, are an amazing person, a wonderful rolemodel for all who need to learn your lessons.
        I am looking forward to reading more, and following your evolution as a writer, and will keep my eye out for your publications. I wish for you an excess of all I have already wished for you.
        Allison, triple A every day.
