Where Have I Been???

Hey.

It's been a while, hasn't it?

(Sorry!)

It's been a over year (just typing it feels absurd) since I've last posted anything. In that year, a lot has happened-- good and bad. It would take forever for me to explain all the happenings in my life, with most of them (really, all of them) being due to the stressful nature of junior year (and the start of senior year) of high school. College tours, applications for various advocacy programs

(I've lost count of how many places I've applied to at this point...) , work (2 jobs! Ahhh!) , and volunteering has consumed most of my time, energy, and efforts.

However, in my year-long-plus hiatus, I didn't forget about Losing My Will To Live. I even thought about writing a blog post or two, but something was always going on or I just didn't have time. Honestly, I've missed writing blog posts-- writing them as if people actually visit this blog that aren't me.

(Not even my mother reads my blog posts. I'm sure of this.)

That's not the only thing, though.

I know I originally created Losing My Will To Live, but more and more I've found myself resisting that limitation that I've put on myself. Much of my life has been limitations about what I can and can't say and write and I found myself needing to create a space where I could be as crass, politically (in)correct, and rage-filled as I damn well pleased.

(In short: I want to write whatever I want to write about, fuck all the rules.)

So, this isn't the end of Losing My Will To Live. Shit, it ain't even started yet. I'm just asking that y'all allow the blog to make that slow transition from what it was originally started out to be into what it is supposed to be: a blog comprised of rage-filled rants and every post loaded with swear words and slang.

I hope you decide to stick around!
