Journal Entry #000

Late May (No specific date due to chronological uncertainties to the show, but it's the beginning of summer vacation) of 2012,

Hello journal, or anyone who is reading this (Hoping for just the first part), I am writing this entry in order to explain that this journal will be used to chronicle my time living away from home and the start of living my life independently. This Journal will be used to record all my thoughts, feelings, and experiences that will developed during the summer and perhaps for years to come. Any discoveries, encounters, and/or points of interest/excitement mentioned in any of the entries will be highlighted for later mentioning or for full study in an extra entry.

Of course I can't guarantee that such entries will, if ever, appear in this journal. I mean, I'll be living in a backwoods town located in the center of the state of Oregon. What could possibly happen ,right?

Commander-Ookami: Hello people/readers of Fanfiction, it's been a long time since I've been online and uploading anything to the site. I've been busy getting things on track for me with college work and finding actual work (no thanks to today's economy, right?). Anyways, I've become an instant fan to Gravity Falls series ever since watching its first episode and are now dedicated to following it till the end. However, when I discovered that they won't be airing anymore new episodes until august 10th, I decided to create this fanfic to fill the gaps until then and onward. I hope that you'll enjoy it and hope to update soon. especially since this chapter is so short. Also, if you've been following any of my other stories (Particularly 'Rewrite: Welcome to Mobius') I've been writing out the next pages and am hoping to get them uploaded soon.
