Bonjour tout le monde! Long time no see.
I should write more on here to keep in touch
because there are so many people I used to talk to
that I haven't talked to in a long time,
which makes me sad.
Lets pick up our pens and tell each other secrets again, ok?
It's officially fall now
and I wish that the weather was cooler,
but lately it's been really humid.
We did have 4 rainy/cloudy days in a row,
which made me smile.
But to me it won't really feel like fall
until the leaves are changing and I can wear my scarves.
I wish it would hurry up and get to that point already.
Actually, I feel like I'm wishing that a lot lately;
for things to come quicker.
I wish that my hair would hurry up and grow long because
I want to feel like a mermaid again and I want to be able
to braid it and play with it like I used to before I cut it
And I wish it was my birthday and Christmas already
because I want to make snow angels and see my family
And I wish that spring would get here already because
I want to graduate and I want to go on my senior trip
to The Angel Of The Sea with Sydney.
But I also can't help but think that I should savor this year,
my senior year, because it's the last year I'll be
Here In Maryland and live near my friends etc. etc. etc.
I want to speed up and slow down time all at once,
which is a strange feeling.
Lately, I've been going through a lot of changes, too.
There are things I'm growing out of
and things that I'm growing into.
LIKE. I'm growing out of looking in the mirror and counting
all my flaws and I'm starting to smile more and notice
all the beautiful things around me.
I've given up using my shyness as an excuse to
never speak to people I don't know;
I've been making myself speak even if I'm scared
and my hands are shaking.
I like that, that feels good.
But there are still things I need to work on;
I should let go of my grudges, for one.
And I should have more patience-
for myself and others.
Once step at a time, I guess.
My taste in things is changing, too.
Like the kind of music I listen to
and the way I talk / dress, kind of.
Anyway, now I'm rambling.
I just wanted to let you all know
how my life has been going lately
And that Im wondering how your lives
have been going as well. :]
