thinking of you

Jun 30, 2008 23:16

one of the perks of this particular summer, with reduced responsibilities for the first time in two years and new chances to explore myself (get your mind out of the freakin' gutter), has been accepting things i long believed i shouldn't do or wasn't interested in.

i'm finding that comfortable place where i feel confident and comfortable with myself.  it's a process that's really been over two years in the making, but i've finally found a sense of personality and style that feels like...me.  somewhere between an emo/goth kid and a prep kid.  i've shifted between the two (leaning more prep) over the years, but i've found a nice balance where i can wear black pseudo-emo clothing and still be fashionable in the preppy sense of the word.

also...i bought a bag.  a man-bag.  from diesel.  it's something i wouldn't have ever considered six months ago (then again, i would've said "no" to wearing purple and/or pink then, too).  now...i'm in love with my little black bag.

i still <3 madonna, and i always will, but i've been reimbracing my connection to female-centered rock (pop-rock, in some cases) with some katy perry and alanis morissette recently.

i'm in...like...with a boy, and he seems to meet my needs in a way i didn't expect.  we have more in common than i thought, but those similarities lie in more emotional territory.  personality-wise, he's definitely more extroverted than i am, which is something i truly like.  he's smart.  he's cute.  he amuses me.  and we both started absent-mindedly singing the madonna song playing in the restaurant friday night - and it's a new madonna song that's not a single.  i don't know...where things are going to go.  but it feels good so far.
