ASMR n. — a feeling of well-being combined with a tingling sensation in the scalp and down the back of the neck, as experienced by some people in response to a specific gentle stimulus, often a particular sound.

Yes, this sounds cringe but THIS… this is honestly some good shiz. Since I first discovered ASMR in the ninth grade, I was obsessed. The tingling sensation that jolts through my bones leaves a calming feeling that I cannot deny. Instead I crave ASMR, I listen to it on the daily and even fall asleep to whispering/ triggering videos. I have other hobbies, don’t get me wrong, but there is something about being totally surrounded in silence and putting in earbuds, and tapping the play button, beginning the journey into an alternate universe. If you’re trying to figure out if I am a weirdo or not, I’ll just say it plain and simple. I am not, but I am my own person. If I get overwhelmed, I need my own place that can help me relax. I am constantly working, studying, traveling, planning, and leading multiple clubs. ASMR is my own break. Creating this blog will be a way to express my opinions in the most thorough way possible. 

I love atmospheres of people who are themselves. Those who speak their minds no matter how awkward the conversation may be. Talking is a way to create friendships, and create community. What I want in life is to have community. I am extroverted, and therefore, I make it a point to reach out to everyone I encounter. You may not feel the same, but that’s who I am. 

I have big dreams. With big dreams, comes a big personality. I want to live my life. I don’t know all the details yet, but I sure as h*ck know that I’ll work towards anything and everything I want.

 If I want a dog, I’ll get that dog (or maybe three).

If I want my own home with a huge kitchen, I’ll get that house with that kitchen.

If I want to go to Harvard, then I’ll work towards receiving that acceptance letter from Harvard… jkjk I won’t be attending Harvard. Buttttt…… I do plan on going to college. I actually plan on going to the college of my choice, then attending a Christian University afterwards.

…

Oh yeah, I am also a Christian. I am your neighborhood Jesus Girl who is always posting about her retreats and pastors, and how “GREAT GOD IS!”… But I do believe that statement is true. I’ll try not to be too political or religious about all this stuff. If I am though, I am sincerely not sorry because I am an outspoken woman. 

I am many things, but I am still figuring out so much. I hope that within my senior year, I get a better clue of all that *jazz*

I want this blog to become something that I can use for myself. Something that speaks to me and emits a feeling through my body that is captivating. It may or may not be that way, but I’ll sure as h*ck try :))

p.s. I may be slightly cringy… so feel free to judge
