The Beginning

I always wondered what the purpose of blogging was; I now realise it can be used for...anything. I can't tell you what this blog will contain; I expect just a series of ramblings by an old teenager who simply loves to write.

A little about myself? I'm a student at university, about to go into my second year. I study English Literature, the subject I've wanted to study since I was ten. Nothing changed since I first became determined to study it. I can say honestly: I love literature. I love writing about it. I love talking about it. I love reading it, watching it, speaking it aloud. I love loving it. I channel a hell of a lot of my passion into literature...But, there are many more things I simply adore.

Writing. Another of my passions. Poetry, essays, short stories and...novels?! Novels?! I haven't yet managed to complete one, but I've begun many. One novel is on its way to being completed - thankfully!

A slight contrast perhaps: tennis. I love to watch it and (to attempt) to play it. In my humble opinion it is an exquisite sport. The grace, the power, the passion, the strokes, all beautiful. It does in fact remind me of ballet, my favourite form of dance.

So, onto ballet. To both watch and perform it is a great experience. I learnt ballet (and other forms of dance) from the age of three. I still dance and I love to choreograph ballet dances and teach them to other dance students. It's one of the greatest feelings to see students perform them (especially when they look like they're enjoying it)!

I think this shall suffice for now. You'll find out more about me as I write more and more.
