Day one of blogging

Wow... I never knew starting a blog would be so difficult. What do I say? Where do I start? Well I suppose I should start with introducing myself. For the purpose of this blog i'm going to call myself Jezebel. Not because I am a Jezebel but because it plays a vital part in the journey I will be taking you on.

I am twenty years old and I currently live with my 30 year old boyfriend in a quant little town just in the suburbs of London. My life is quite simple, I work 5 days a week, have a pet rabbit called Alfred and spend most nights wondering whether my boyfriend will come home late.

Before you click off of this blog and conclude it as one silly bint ranting and raving because she's on her period, I urge you to take your finger away from that little red X on the top of your page and continue to read on. I'm not claiming to be a prophet or a preacher, neither am I claiming that I am going to move mountains or make a very big difference in this world. What I do know is that over the course of however long I write this blog, if I manage to captivate an audience, however small it may be. I have made a difference. Only a small one, but you have to walk before you can run. Who knows, in a years time I may be sprinting.

I'm fed up with reading pointless blogs about what someone has eaten for that day and how many times someone has seen a particular film. I want to read something that is real, I want to be fascinated, addicted even, and I want to learn about emotions I haven't felt yet. I want to make you laugh, cry, get angry and at times I will want you to feel pity. I want to play through all of your emotions each day (unless my social life picks up and it may be every other day).

But that’s what I am proposing to do to you, my audience. I want you to be fascinated and remember me. You may love or hate me by the end of this blog, either way I will be happy, because I will have made you feel an emotion. Whether the emotion is love or hate, i'm still making you feel something for my writing. And that’s the difference I am going to make.
