My Name is Gracen Hill. I'm a freshman in college, and this year was my first time being away from home. Home is Cartersville, Georgia, a railroad town about an hour north of Atlanta. One known for carpets- its now known for Trevor Lawrence. (Who i love to say I went to high school with, even though I saw him once in the hallway when I was fourteen) Leaving home was really hard for me. Well, of couse until I actually did it. Then it became the easisest choice I already made!

I love to read, well, more I like to think about the idea of reading. I love movies and all tings film and symbolism. I also love to write. (i know, figures) My dream is to be a journalist, and this year I actually had an internship with the Brunswick newspaper. But really, if i could just write about my feelings for a living, I would be set. I also love to work. In high school i worked at a quaint little coffee shop and it was my whole life. When I had to leave for college they got me a cake and i wrote a speech. (pretty proud of it) This fostered a love for all things mildly pretentious, and a life long caffine addiction. This year i worked at a resturant on St. Simons, and it completey changed my world. I was forced out of my shell, and found myself talking to strangers about draft beer. Its probably the best thing that could've happened for me.

And lastly, now this is pretty sappy but its just the truth, I love life. I think it's the greatest book we'll ever read, the greatest movie we'll ever watch, and the greatest story we'll ever tell. Everything has meaning to me, and everything comes full circle. Also life can be quite the commedy- a wannabe writer taking English for the second time? (hopefully not a third though) (i mean i loved this class but it's time to move on) Now, that's great for the plot!
