Hi everyone,
Finally having the courage to introduce myself. I'll just call myself Maria. I've been lurking over here since April. I'm 24 years old, I live in Belgium, I like making clothes and music and writing stuff (songs, poetry, stories, anything really), and the past year, I've been studying fashion design. (I have to switch to home schooling, though, because of panic attacks and other issues I'd rather not be dealing with.) I'm trying to set up a clothing brand. My first printed fabric should arrive in the mail in about a week and a half! (Or was it three weeks and a half? I forgot. Anyway, it's a looooooong time.) I'll be posting pictures of whatever I decide on making with it!
I'm not sure yet if I'd consider a career in camming, as I am extremely shy and I am worried about the implications of all of it for my future career (even though I passed my management exam and I shouldn't really care about what anyone thinks. Like ever. I will have my clothing business to rely on, and my boyfriend is looking into opening a gym - I'm sure I could be an excellent barmaid.) I might stick to YouTubing every now and then. Then again, I have read wonderful things about shy people blossoming on cam, and I really do need the money. I used to be on MFC, but felt too shy to talk to anyone and saw my camscore drop at every attempt to log in. It's still itching, though, so I registered on Chaturbate a few days ago. No camscore, much less personal, but - to my understanding - also much less space to just chat. Because, as the name of the website indicates, it's about "the art of chatting whilst masturbating." Non-nude modelling is a concept I really like and definitely consider doing. I could play the harp, sing my songs, show my drawings and clothes, and talk about everyday life - yours or mine - only thing is, what should I be tipped for, then? I'm still figuring that one out.
Anyway. I was going to post my YouTube link on here, but I think I'll stay as anonymous as possible for a while and see how everything goes. I couldn't resist thanking Leon for his post on wrestling, thus exposing myself as an actual "active" reader on here x-D Leon, if you're reading this: your English is amazing.
On that post: yes, wrestling is scripted, and yes, the storylines rarely make sense, but addictions to painkillers are a real problem in the business, and the stunts performed in the ring are real, and performed by the "actors" themselves - not by stunt doubles. I was drawn into wrestling a few months ago when my boyfriend was casually watching a show and I saw this really cute young man in the commentary chair - that man turned out to be Seth Rollins, high-flying ninja, two-toned catwoman and what-is-he-not being called these days. After he beat his teammates to shreds with those chairs, I barely slept for like three days. And to illustrate that wrestling is sometimes realer than real: his former teammate tweeted this picture after the broadcast: pic.twitter.com/ytvu6LSO1r. Just saying, though
I like the idea of it being scripted. I can't stand watching random violence, like UFC fights or just any regular boxing match.
Looking forward to chatting with some of the lovely people I've already spotted around here
Cheers,
Maria
