Please prepare yourselves and strap in for a bit of a soppy blog. π
I've been a part of the SG community for over 2 months now, my set hasn't even come out yet and it's already changed my life.
It all started with @gemmaedwardsuk. I had no idea what shooting would be like because I'd never done anything like this before. I've said this a million times, but she really is the best photographer I could have hoped for, and I am so grateful to her. The shoot was amazing, the day was amazing. π
Since then it's all been gradually changing. The thing I wanted to talk about really is the friends that I'm making through SG!
I haven't had friends for a while. I have a friends that I speak to and see occasionally but most of them live too far away to see frequently. All my friends from school moved away and I was the one left alone. Honestly since I was 17 I've not had any real friends. I sit at home alone a lot, isolated from everything. That's definitely my fault, but it's changing.
Since my shoot, Gemma has been amazing and helped me make loads of SG friends. I met loads of lovely guys and girls at her birthday and at the ballroom blitz last month and even that was more than I'd hoped for, so thank you. ππ
Now @rubytrue has invited me to go to Download with her this weekend. Short notice, no plans. What an angel. @lucerne is now coming to see me soon. I'm trying to be cool about it but she's so damn pretty and lovely and I'm really bloody excited. π Secondly, @galda has asked me to go see her and actually said she wants to shoot a multi with me if I turn pink. I don't mean to be such a loser, but how fucking awesome is that?! Yes please. π
I know all this is really lame, and trust me - I wish I were cooler - but I'm really not. My anxiety tells me that I annoy everyone I speak to. It tells me that I'm not enough and nobody likes me. So if I do actually annoy you - don't worry. I annoy me too. ππ»
What I mean is, thank you SG. My set comes out in less than 2 months but already the site has had such a positive impact on my life. βΊοΈ
