Valerie is my given name but you can call me Val for short.
First impressions may last, but I believe they change.
You would have already formed the impression you want of me by the end of this introduction but I can tell you that reading this introduction wont tell you all that you want to know about me. Reading my blog, however, MIGHT.
I am like a diamond. Cold, hard, shiny and polished on the surface. But you have to have a trained eye and the patience to look carefully before you see the multi-faceted surfaces within the diamond itself.
