From the Inside Flap

I bought this journal on a whim. I figured that since I would be beginning a new life tomorrow, I might as well start a new hobby too. Earlier today, I had run into the local drug store to pick up a few things for my trip, as I stood in line at the checkout the journals were there on display. I picked one up and tucked it into my shopping cart. If not for journaling, I could always use the paper for notes and shopping lists. I have everything packed, what I am taking anyway. I have my clock set for 5 AM, as I want to get to the house as early as possible. I do not trust myself to find the place after dark. I want to make sure I have plenty of time. Normally I would have my laptop out now, scrolling through Facebook. However, being that I have had the WI-FI turned off here. I have nothing left to do tonight, but introduce myself to you Journal. My name is Hannah Brooks and I am twenty-six years old. I was born and raised in the mountains of South Carolina. My parents died in a car crash when I was twenty years old. That was a difficult time in my life, being that I had been very close to my parents. I was still living at home at the time of the accident. I think some bad things in our life we never actually get past, we just learn how to live with them. My older sister Haleigh and I grew closer after our parent's death. Haleigh is thirty years old and has been with her current boyfriend for the past five years. I myself am still single. Haleigh blames it on my being too fussy, but that is not entirely true. My last breakup was not my fault at all. That is another reason I have decided to make this move tomorrow. I need to put some distance between my memories of Tom and myself. I guess I can give you a bit of background here, as I want to start this journal new with my new life.
