An Introduction

Hello, and welcome to my new blog! I figured it goes with my new life in which I don't live in New Jersey and don't have a menial job.

Basically, here's the short story of who I am. I'd lived in New Jersey for all my life with my Mom, Dad and little brother. Other than getting picked on a lot in school, life was pretty uneventful until I was about twelve. When I was 12 my Dad came out as gay to me, and I was molested by a classmate. Things felt pretty uncool for a couple of years after that, especially around 16 when one of my uncles got ALS and had to come live with us (he eventually died about a year later) and my Dad left the house. Lucky for me, high school was fairly pleasant, despite attending during the years of the Columbine High School massacre and the 9-11 attacks. After that, I went to college, eventful years where I went to very few parties but met some friends and a boyfriend. In the end, I recieved a BA in Communications with a specialization in Journalism (I also minored in Political Science) and graduated with a manga cum laude.

And now, after six months of menial job purgatory, I've gotten to use that degree in the lovely land of ... Delaware. Or I'm going to do so. I'll be doing that in a week. Until then, I shall be around with harrowing tales of what I read today, because from everything I heard there's not much to do in Delaware.
