Dear diary

We made it to day 6!!!! I feel like I can be more open with you now 😆

Okay so I’m J. I’m 25 and I’m a mother of one boy👦🏽 If I’m not working I’m watching horror, true crime , and sci-fi stuff👻. I HAVE to listen to music 🎶 . My favorite genre has been afrobeats for like 2 years. My favorite color is green💚. My favorite season is Fall 🎃

Umm what else 🤔..

Oh yeah I like playing COD and sometimes I stream 🎮 . I’ve come to enjoy cooking and baking 🥘 🧁 I’m trying to get back into reading and writing more✍🏾

I got Lemon8🍋 to make more friends who are interested in the same things as me. I also love using this app for recipes and gym routines. And now apparently I’m posting my fitness journey

I never planned to reply post much on here but the community is very welcoming so why not 😁 I plan on doing better put together posts but right now this is my diary so it won’t be as…formal I guess? Lol anyways Hello officially!!
