I'm not entirely sure I know what I'm doing or why I'm doing it, but whatever. It's 2014, my name is Octavia Williams but most people call me Taia, I'm currently 20 years old and my biggest dream as a kid was to be a performer.
Now see this story is starting back to when I was 14, stupid and young. I know what you're thinking, as a 14 year old that was a big fucking dream, and good luck to me, but a long time ago I was told "it's completely uneducated to say fuck everyone and that you're going to be successful", But hearing that make me think that If I don't make it, it doesn't mean I'm just going to end out a homeless piece of shit with absolutely nothing just because "my dream was too big". I am and was that person to say fuck everyone, and I had other options just in case.
Anyway, I lived in England, well Essex to be exact. My best friends at the time were Alex Gaskarth and Sophie Turner. Back in '08 this is when I thought to write my own personal blog or whatever to one day reveal it to the world.
It was the holidays when I came up with "the best idea ever" to make this thing that sadly turned out to be brilliant, and at that moment my best-friend Alex Gaskarth was overseas at his mums place, surprisingly we were extremely close but I had no fucking idea where his mum lived, but on the other hand my sister from another mister? I think that's what they call it? Sophie was always at my house considering my Mum was barely home, and my Dad lived in Baltimore, Somewhere in America or something.
I have two siblings, one little sister who was 9 and an older brother who was 17, I had never met him before, he lived with my Dad and I had never been overseas to see him. I didn't even know his first name just the fact that we were both Dawsons by blood (He's my half-brother).
Nobody knew that I was a Dawson, not even me until I was 13, my mother sat me down because "It was about time I knew this" and well fuck, I thought I was adopted. In that situation she explained how big my family was and why I couldn't tell anyone that I was a Dawson, he excuse was " Your Father has an extremely high reputation of being a horrible person" she also said that if anyone found out at school and the teacher knew my world will come crashing down and I will no long be able to aim for my dreams and will end out a prostitute on the side streets.
I know my story is already completely unorganised and out of whack, but hey, we're getting somewhere, it all starts eventually, I'm just telling you the basics and what you need to understand.
This is the end but also the beginning.
Have fun reading my story just as I live it. :*
