Camp & a book

Hello again!
Thank you for anyone who bothers to read this.
I was at camp last week which was absolutely wonderful - i talked to lots of new people and made new friends and i feel like i made my existence known (im pretty shy). It was such an easy environment to interact in, I just loved it. I really hope that it will continue when we go back to school.
On another note, today I read "Thirteen reasons why" by jay asher which was a really good book. About suicide and the 'snowball effect' of little things gradually adding up, and although the book ended with death of main character (dont worry, im not spoiling the story, you know from the start), its a really positive ending, giving you hope for helping people.

Hello

Hello!
I'm ruby, an Aussie teenager.
i'm kind of, shy and weird and really like fun. I guess everyone likes fun but yeah, haha.
this is a kinda online diary thing for me i guess, or at leaast, thats what im hoping it will be - a place where i can write my thoughts and feelings and not be judged - which sounds pretty good to me!

i dont actually know what i will put here, but ill figure it out as this goes on.

well

to start with i'll tell a story of a moment of my weekend.
I was hanging out the washing - believe it or not this is a process I enjoy because it means i go out into the sunlight and the air, and i tend to sing and dance around when im in my backyard because its private and stuff and it makes me happy. Exercise releases endorphins/happy chemical things which sound like dolphins and make you happy right? Same as chocolate. Coincidence haha. Anyway, back to the point. i stood on something soft - possibly soft like some poor native animal my neighbours cat killed - and freaked out and gasped and jumped away slightly. Then I looked at it. It was a sock.
This story is a metaphor for my life i think. Not sure how but it seems about right. 'This is thy life...' Is that a shakespeare quote? something like that, anyway.
So yeah.
Grand Story of my Life... i dont really know why i posted this but anyway its my thoughts hehe, hello! (Hello is counting as a parting greeting now too, okay)

p.s. other posts will be more interesting, I promise...
