this summer has come to a close. in two days im going to be starting my
final year of high school. the last year of forced education, of living
at home, of being in this valley, of being a kid. i grew up a lot
this summer. i learned that grudges arent worth my energy. time heals
(most) wounds. some people, especially the ones you hold closest to
your heart, are lost causes...you can neither fix them or help
them...that its soley up to them to do it. ive learned that jealousy is
a waste of time. it wont get you what you want and it wont make you
something that your not. sometimes you have to let people go.
sometimes you need a break to make something stronger. this is the
first time ive gone months wihtout really fighting with my parents. ive
learned that if you work hard enough and want something enough youll
get it...and to listen to advice even if you dont like it or even agree
with it. this summer was the first time i took a trip with my
friends. it was amazing and one of the best experiences ive ever
had. i finally got my permit and two months later got into college. you
cant resent the fact that people grow up and change. im not really
afraid to grow up any more. im ready. i hope ryan grows up and applies
himself, but mostly that he finds whatever hes looking for. i hope
jeremy finds happiness and puts his grief into something creative to
help others. i hope parker finds the love of her life and that she
moves far away from her parents. i hope nick realizes the potential he
has and does something he is truly proud of. i hope danny fufills his
rockstar dreams and finds that perfect girl that his standards have
been waiting for. i hope britney learns to be happy with
herself and applies herself so she can do what she loves later.
