Welcome to reverie.

Hi friends.

Surprise! I created a blog. (Definitely not the first time.)

Why is Haley starting a blog? What does reverie mean? Let me explain.

I have loved writing since I was a kid. Books were the place I escaped to when my reality wasn't quite enjoyable. Its been my dream since I was little to be that escape for other people as well. Content creation is a way that I get to do that. Whether you hang out with me on Twitch or you've been following me since my vlogging days on YouTube, I hope that I have created a space for you to feel safe in and escape reality for a bit.

If I am being completely honest, I have been living in my daydream world for a long time now. Life became too heavy and too hard for me to deal with. I fell back into a depressive state, stopped experiencing life and enjoying the things I used to love. It just became more enjoyable to live in an imaginary world than my real one. That is where the idea of "reverie" began.

rev·er·ie /ˈrev(ə)rē/

noun

1. a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.

It is scary to admit your dreams and aspirations, because once you say it out loud, you risk this romanticized idea of your life being ruined. You fear someone cutting down your ideas or everyone seeing you fail. I have been guilty of that for a very long time.

I am hoping this blog will be a new space for a different type of content that I am used to making. I still want to stream on Twitch, have movie nights in Discord and even(maybe) get back to vlogging. I am tired of being afraid to live my life because I care too much about what people think of me.

Time to make daydreams a reality. Love you guys, and I hope I will see you around for all of the stuff I have planned. <3

With Love,

Haley <3
