Dear Reader,

This is Wattpad, and I'm stupid for making this, but I just need to get this off my chest somehow and writing is the only way to do that. Whether I publish this or not, I just need to write. But first, to the people reading this, hi. How are you?  I just cried for two hours. I don't want pity, or a "sorry to hear that", I want to just be able to tell you I cried for two hours. And then I want you to process that and say "okay, Marilyn". I sound crazy.  I always want to write, whether it be about the most random of things, or something I'm passionate about. Some people may understand what that's like, but others don't. They think they're bad at writing. No one is bad at writing. Writing is what you do with it. For me, writing is a hobby. Writing is that friend that doesn't talk back, but listens--and helps me grow without knowing it. Also, it seems to be the only friend that is never annoying. (Sorry Hannah. Love you, girl)  What do you yourself like to do?  I'm curious. Some people get Wattpad to read, and others to meet people. Why did you join Wattpad? I'm just an ambitious girl, with too many ideas in her head. To other ambitious girls, with too many ideas in their heads, they may be getting offended. Thinking, "Oh but you don't really know what it's like to be ambitious. Ambition is my thing." To that I say, touche. You've made your point, but a rather sucky one. I grew up thinking I was going to be a ballerina, and now here I am. Wanting to be a writer. I am starting to grasp the fact that in order to do that, I need to get out of my comfort zone. I used to be sad. Like, really sad. Everyone's been sad at some point, but I also used to think that it never ended. But then, I started to write. A lot. I had filled five three-subject notebooks in one school year. To some that may not be a lot, but try filling five three-subject notebooks, front to back, with stories and ideas. It's muuuuch easier said than done. I'm not trying to brag in anyway, but I'm just saying that once you find something you love, pursue it. I stopped caring about things that made me sad. When I was sad, I thought that as soon as I started writing, I could make myself feel better. And I always did. And writing always helped. So when you're feeling said, or anxious, think about how there's nothing worth being sad over, and nothing to be anxious about as long as you pour your heart into something you love.

If this didn't make sense, sorry. I just used this to calm down.
