hi my name's sandara belle

I'm pretty sure very few people will even bother to read this, but that's okay...

Anyway, I'm Sandara Belle. That's not my real name of course, I just wish it is. I live in Vancouver, Canada and no, I do not say "eh". But then again, I'm just an immigrant - maybe some people who were born here fit the stereotype. I've been living here for less than 2 years but I can already hardly remember my life before then.

I enjoy reading, specifically young adult novels with a lot of that teenage angst sort of drama. I don't have much experience with writing, although in fifth grade I started writing poems. I do keep a personal diary (although I prefer the term "journal") in my computer and I use that to practice my writing. In search of an online writing group, I recently joined Scribophile. I read somewhere that it was a very good website where writers critiqued each other's work, etc, but I didn't think the writing level would be that intimidating! So I tried to google "teen writing group" instead, and I found this. And that's how I got here.

Anyway, I guess you could say I'm an ordinary 14 year old girl who spends half her time doing nothing and the other half wondering what the hell happened to her life. I consider myself a generally nice person, but under some circumstances could possibly also be the biggest bitch you'll ever meet. I swear I have a split personality disorder, but apparently, wikipedia doesn't think so.

I have to warn you that I'm pretty messed up. You might witness a lot of lunacy from me in the future, depending on how much information i choose to disclose on this blog (or whatever it is). I think that, for now, I will just do a blog (or a diary, journal - you name it) on basically what happens in my life - what I feel, think, and go through, etc. I know, I know, it sounds boring. But what else can I do? I might write poems every now and then but they usually suck. I'm not interested in writing fiction either, I don`t think I`m confident enough yet.

Take note that sometimes I will have to dramatize the words every now and then if I feel that I need to, because even though it will still be a hundred percent true, I still want people to read it. Feel free to review my pieces and offer critique, I am highly inexperienced in literature (so please take it easy on me) and would really like to improve my skills.

Anyway, I think I'll stop writing for now. If you have read until the very end, then bravo! I hope you didn't suffer too much reading it
See you guys next time!
