Hello There

Hey everyone. I just made an account on this site because I have always enjoyed writing and just wanted to get some thoughts and feelings out there. I don’t write very often for the whole world to see but I am willing to give it a shot. I usually journal on my own time and don’t let anyone read what I have written.

The past couple months have been hectic for me. I quit a job that I absolutely hated and in December, I started college classes online to become a Behavior Analyst. I have been stressed out for weeks about getting the perfect grades and I am currently in my second and third classes. I passed my first class a couple weeks ago with an “A.” I want to be able to get all A’s so that I can keep my 4.0 GPA and hopefully make it onto the Dean’s list in the fall.

I also made an account on here to maybe get some ideas and advice from other writer’s. I have my own website where I have posted some of my poetry. With starting school and that though, I haven’t updated it with anything new in awhile. I am also at a point where I am having trouble finding things to inspire me to write poetry. I think it is just a bad case of writer’s block and that I should try to write about anything to get it out.

So nice to meet you all,

Cecilia Carnahan

Welcome to open diary! I’ve been a member here since it started in 2002! It’s so fun to go look back through the years of memories and see how much has changed. I find it’s also acc C really good way to get stuff off your chest! Congrats on quitting that job! I’m a huge supporter of shedding anything that isn’t serving you. It sounds like you’re on the right track to a much better chapter!

@hannah_banana0012  I hope this was a good choice for me. I do want to maybe find something part time soon that is in the field of my degree. Maybe an internship or something of the like. My boyfriend has been very supportive of my journey to go back to school. I don’t think I would be doing this if it wasn’t for his love and support. It has been pretty hard and stressful, I feel mentally exhausted half the time. I am trying to figure out ways to be stress free and to prevent myself from becoming burnt out.
