I've yet to figure out why Girls resonates with me. Hannah Horvath is a reminder of myself at her age- unsure about where I fit in and what I really want to do with my life, dating someone totally wrong for you just because it's a relationship, and the unconditional support of friends.
There are comparisons to Sex and the City, which I get and with which I identified as well.
Writing as always a hobby for me- something I did well and others enjoyed reading my pieces. I briefly considered a career as a writer, a journalist, but my fascination with human behaviour took over and a call to become a therapist took over.
I reserved my writing to a blog, a blog in which I recapped my life of adventures with friends, vacations, a long distance relationship, work, and actual dreams from the night before. I even tried to emulate Bridget Jones's diary, but that was short lived.
After watching Girls, I had it in my mind to start writing essays, like Hannah; they've yet to be written. I have ideas for them, like Hannah, I just need to fucking write them. But this is a start. Of what, I don't know.
