This'll likely be lost in the deep archives of blogspot due to the very generic title, but I'm trying to start somewhere. I think that'll be the main word of the blog "try" - and "trying".
My name is Amy Redmond, I'm 15 years old and a youngest sibling. I live in Christchurch, New Zealand with my two older brothers. My parents? Dad lives in the Philippines for business with my older sister. I have a feeling he didn't just move for business though. Mum lives in Auckland, New Zealand, a 1 hour flight away. I visit her every 2 months. If you couldn't tell, my parents are divorced :)
My story doesn't start in New Zealand though, I was born in the UK in 2010 on an icy January 1st. The newsmen must've thought that was out of the ordinary since my first feature was in a newspaper as the first baby born of the decade. Not much of feat on my part, more like my mothers. So each new years day, instead of celebrating a new year, I age.
Why am I writing this blog? Solace - and also I'm bored right now :p
I have many friends, I'm close with my family, I don't feel lonely, but not many teenagers my age want to talk about anything more than what outfit to wear or what guy looked at them. I seriously think. All the time. At this point you probably think I'm an entitled teenager thinking that no-one understands her. Maybe you're not wrong, but I'm here to share thoughts and hopefully only future me will read these blogs, but maybe someone from 2900 will too. Unlikely as blogs or any form of literacy are dying out. Attention spans are depressingly short. Now all we can consume is 5 second videos.
So here's me, writing from a library, putting off my chemistry studies. Thinking that there's so much more to come.
