Please forgive me if I ramble or stumble with my words. I am completely new to the boards, and my first post tends to be long when I get anxious.
My name is Robin. Robin is my real name. I did not know if I wanted to conjure a nickname especially for myself, but it came down to using the name I was given after birth. If I do the math right, I am about twenty years, eight months, and a week old. Florida has been my home since I was seconds old. My father and mother raised me and a younger brother. After seventeen years, my father moved away. My younger brother followed him a year and a few months later. Most of my life... I can honestly remember a handful of memories from childhood through late teens; during the fragile teen years, I was emotionally and increasingly physically bullied by my younger brother until he got himself kicked out of the house; I have depression and an anxiety disorder as a result. There are happier things I recall: eighth grade graduation at Sea World, the better of my high school experiences, cheerful family moments, and other memories that take a back-seat to the bad things I remember.
I am getting a little too personal, sorry. n_n;;
Oh! Uhm... I decided to register after Sensible Cricket sent me a link. We have been friends for about a month, maybe two... actually... I do not know exactly how long we have been friends. I just know that she is a really really great person, and fun to chat with! Another reason why I registered is because I am interested in learning more about Jedi Realism. Sensible talked to me about it after I helped her out with a banner graphic for a site for Jedi Realism. As we were talking, I became more and more interested. I have honestly always wanted to know more about the philosophies in the Star Wars universe ever since my parents introduced me to Lucas' brain child. All of my life, I have not practiced any religion, but I have always felt a certain void in my life. I have been in search of anything that could fill that void. The void... I know it has to do with my faith... but I could never associate myself with anything because nothing felt right. So... my major reason for being here is to learn more about Jedi Realism; Sensible has nudged the door open, I have merely stepped one foot in the doorway with a curious eye and mind swallowing up everything.
I do not want to make this longer than it should be, so I will leave the rest of my background to be revealed as I talk with others; like, actions speak louder than words, y'know? So ends my introductory post. n_n;; Though I am shy, I easily open up after a couple conversations.
