The Beginning

Once upon a time, there was a girl. She had spent her childhood years traveling around the world, living on different continents and exploring new cultures, only to find herself heading off to college in a remote rural town so far north in the state of New York that it was basically Canada. She enjoyed her life there, spending her days in classes and her weekends getting into shenanigans with her friends. They were a good group of people, the kind that never made her hide behind a mask and always had her back. But there were parts of the girl that they couldn't understand. And there were nights where she would sit alone in her room, reading through old journals and aching to escape the somewhat mundane life she had found for herself in this isolated place. Because she was not made to last in such an environment. She could not handle feeling trapped. So she turned to her writing, to her memories of all the places she'd been before, to regain some of the feeling of freedom she'd had growing up.
She was The Girl Out of Everywhere.
