"one of these days i'm going to stay up all night, cleaning my heart of all it's lies"
things that are currently frustrating me:
-- my friends, or lack thereof
-- being continuously left out of things
-- feeling taken advantage of
-- this semester still not being over
-- that the people who i once cared so much about are the ones who are causing me the most pain
-- that the people who i feel the closest to live too far away for me to see them on any kind of regular basis
things that i am thankful for:
-- my parents and their concern
-- my brother who makes me laugh and is amazing
-- my extended family who i have so much love for and wish i could see more often
-- the weekend vacations i've had the opportunity to go on and the beautiful people i've met as a result
-- the experiences that have made this a semester full of growth
-- that i have realized that i am much stronger than i originally thought
-- the life that i'm living, because after my government and politics of africa course, and the videos we've seen, i have no doubt of how lucky i truly am
-- the baha'i faith, no question
my wish list:
-- for graduation to come soon so that i can move onto the next phase of my life
-- to live in haifa
-- for people to appreciate what i have to offer
-- to learn how to be vulnerable and not get as hurt as often as i do
-- to figure out what i truly want in life
-- to keep refining myself so that i can start shining
-- to make something of myself and to make a difference
-- to stop being so selfish
-- for pure, real love
-- to never stop finding the beauty and magic in life
-- the ability to appreciate and savor the current moment
-- to learn how to cook as well as my mom
-- to never give up
