Profile

My name is Katie and I'm 19. I am a sophomore in college and at the moment pursing a major of photography. We'll see how that goes.

I signed up to Dreamwidth to help myself begin writing a book. It is somewhat of an autobiography. It will be about something that happened to me my junior year of high school. I would not even be attempting to write about it if I felt it would not help others in some way. Therefore, I will use this site as a place to put my ideas and drafts down. It will be a difficult time for me to remember what happened that year because I tried to block most of it out. That means I really have to concentrate and dig deep in myself to remember that time and at the same time try not to get depressed about it.

I don't think anyone will read this but, maybe someday, I can include this in my book about where I first started trying to write about such a difficult time in my life.

EDIT

I realized after just three days of remembering what I went through that it is too difficult for me to go through what happened in 2006-07. I am looking into therapy because I realized that I bottled everything up even after saying that I had "learned from it and it does not bother me anymore" which is a complete lie to myself and anyone else I tell that too. So, maybe after therapy, I will see if I want to continue this project. In the meantime I will use this as an everyday journal and write down my experiences from therapy once I start going.
