A place to put out my heart content.

My name is Vera but I'm using Zara here because that's what Grammy calls me. I'm a university student from Nigeria, I'm 19 years old and more of an emotionally drained soul. Lost both parents on the same day and currently staying with my Grammy. She's a sweet soul, taking care of me after losing my parents was hard but she did it afterall.

^{I love my selfies though}

Little things get to me and to avoid getting into serious depression I tend to pour out my heart's content into writing. I mostly cry when I write and I'm used to Writing sad love stories and horror because of the numerous nightmares I have and they somehow hunt me to the real world.

I try to put on smiles whenever I'm not sobbing in my shell, making secret wishes that one day I'll be fine on the inside too.

I'm more of an introvert. My physical relationship with people is very poor and my outdoor life is poor too(I'm working on improving) but I tend to fit in well when it comes to texting or talking with people online. My room is my most preferred place to be.

^{My 19th birthday photoshoot🥺}

The day I lost my parents was the day I lost my sanity, the day all my problems began. Taking selfies and photoshoots makes me happy even though I do that once in awhile.

^{@teknon and I in school}

I was introduced to this platform by @teknon. She's my best friend and knows what I go through on a daily basis, meeting her was the best thing that happened to me after I lost my parents. She saw lots of my journals where I pen down my emotions and thought that hive would be a better place to save them for future purposes.

She helped me create the account some weeks ago but I was too shy to throw images of me out here but she's been kind enough to encourage me saying no one bites around here except I fail to abide by the rules

I'm open to learning new things and receptive to meeting new people and I promise to abide by every rule governing this platform. I hope I'm welcome here🥺
