I made my account on here a few days ago, and I have to admit, the amount of messages I've recieved in such a short time frame is really surprising. I'm a relatively quiet and shy person (until I get comfortable, then I just won't shut up), so to be noticed very quickly and by many people is a bit overwhelming for me. Though, I guess it's better to overcome my shyness sooner rather than later, right? I certainly hope so.
Let's see...Since this is my first post, I suppose it's best if I introduce myself. My username is ChxrryBxrry (pronounced 'cherryberry'), but you are more than welcome to refer to me as just Cherry. I'm currently finishing up my undergrad with just one semester left. I have a 3.3 GPA as we speak, but I'm hoping to bring it up with this summer class I'm taking. As mentioned, I currently am taking an Intro to the Arts course, which has been relatively fun! I have quite a few electives left to take, so I'm just taking anything that piques my interest at this point. Plus, I haven't had an art class since...Middle school? Either way, it's long overdue.
I haven't had a d/s dynamic in quite a few years (about 3-4 years), but when I was in a dynamic, my dom was a daddy dom, and I was a little sub with brat tendencies. I was in a relationship with my dom, and while it didn't work out between us, I still got a lot of enjoyment and fulfillment out of being a submissive. Admittedly, I do feel as though I've changed over the years, I'm just not sure what kind of submissive I am nowadays. I didn't realize until recently, but I often seeked out praise from professors as a way to get a similar sense of fulfillment like I did a few years ago in the d/s dynamic. I'm not kidding when I say that I had a professor say to me: "You're a star" in an email once, and I didn't let go of that for weeks. I met some lovely mutuals online who have provided a safe, welcoming space for relative newcomers for the d/s lifestyle, and through them I managed to stumble across this website.
So I'm here now. ♡
I did a surprising amount of cleaning today, I can still smell the cleaner on the tips of my fingers. I don't really mind cleaning, especially if there's some good music to get a good groove going. ABBA and Queen were certainly a godsend today while I was cleaning my showers. I often get tunnel vision while working on something, so I hardly take a moment to myself to take a quick breather or drink some water, and I'm paying for that now with a headache. I've got water now, though! I was going to do a bit of homework today for my Art course, but I think I'm going to take the rest of the day to myself (Plus, the homework isn't due until the 28th, so I've got some time ;D).
I feel as though I've written enough for my first post, but I do creatively write in my free time, often writing poetry more than anything. In my next post I'll upload a poem I've written recently! Currently debating if I want to post "Sweet Smell" or "O Son of God" first. Maybe whichever everyone else is interested in I'll post? I'll see the responses and decide from there!
Maybe I should end this with a fun fact? Fun Fact: The painter Monet, known for his impressionist paintings, went blind due to cataracts, which affected his later works. If you compare his earlier works to his later ones, you can see the difference!
Have a lovely rest of your day everyone! ...I think I'm going to lay down for a while and hope this headache goes away on its own.
