Chapter One: The Mission Begins

Well, hey there internet world.
I'm Lady Catapult, and this is my very first blog. Why am I called Lady Catapult? It's a nickname I was given in eighth grade when I was in a play called "An Evening of Culture", which was about a group of small town hicks putting on Romeo and Juliet. I played a character who played Lady Capulet, but there was a running joke throughout the play that no one could pronounce it right, (Catapult, Cadillac, Cappuccino...etc) thus the nickname was born.

Now that that's out of the way, it's time for the bigger question... why does this blog exist?
Well, there are a few reasons.
1. I'm bored right now and avoiding some chores.
2. I like to talk about myself.
3. I really like GIFs
4. I want to make my life better. I have been trying for years to get my act together, but it never fully happens. There have been some times when I've felt pretty on top of things, but most of the time, I have felt like a mess. I'm overweight, i'm disorganized, i'm lazy, i'm forgetful, I can't stick to a routine, I lie too much, I make way too many excuses, I avoid confrontation, I avoid adult responsibilities, I have emotional problems, and I just generally feel out of control most of the time.


I (as I have said about a million times before) am ready to start fully turning my life around. Who knows, writing about this may help me, or I may not write another blog for the rest of my life after this, but hey, I can still try though!

I will (hopefully) use this blog to keep track of my journey to a better life. I will brag about my progress, rant about my failures, talk about why I think I have the problems I have, and what I am doing to fix it. Hopefully some of you can relate to all this, and if I do well, then you guys can be inspired as well!
...that is, if anybody actually reads this... anybody? ...hello? ...maybe?




Well even if I don't get any readers, I still think writing on here will really help me keep myself in check. I can just pretend I have lots of readers that understand me, you can be my imaginary friends, and we will have so much fun together :)
So what do you say imaginary friends? Let's watch as I embark on this new little journey in my life and see if I wind up so successful that I do a super happy dance like my friend John Green here...




...or if I continue to look like this most days...



So, there's my little intro to this blog!
In the next one I will tell you more about myself and what I am really like.
Then I will start really getting into details of these problems i've been having.

So.... LET THE MISSION BEGIN!!
