As much as i hated hearing all of the cliche things that my older friends would feed me about senior year and heading off to college, im glad they did. Im glad that im not the only one feeling the way i am about life.
Tonight i realized so much about my life, i dont know how it happened or what sparked it but i feel like a different person heading off to bed. I have some of the best friends in the world, and as i have now graduated and it becomes closer for me to go to college i have truly realized who is real and who isnt. I want to be me again, i dont want to be some trouble maker....
Heading off to college, growing up, your parents finally starting to let go...
Im finally starting to see things from their persepective, and for once i tihnk i actually understand.
I have so much respect for them and what they have done for their own lives, and what they have given up for mine, i just wish they could read this and truly understand how i feel.
Hanging out with all my friends from church tonight, and Phil especially really made me realize how much i have changed from what i used to be.
I am a CHRISTAIN and as much as my faith has slipped in the last 2 years i tihnk im finally starting to get it back. Im not at all saying im becoming some goodie 2 shoes, but what i am saying is that i have had a lot to think about in the last couple of months and i really know what i want now.
PEople always told me that when u leave for college, your life can change in so many ways, and i have finally realized what they mean. I have decided that when i get to school, i am deffinetly gonna join inner varsity. I want to have friends that are dealing with the same things i am. Other people that are my age that are christains and are trying to live the same life i am.
I like to drink, but i dont really need to, and it just adds so much stress to my parents. I dont like dissapointing them, and most importantly dissapointing myself.
I think i might be ready to finally give up drinking. I can still have fun without being an occasional drinker. I form addictions to easily and as i head off to this next stage in my life, i dont want that to be one of them.
Im not sure where im going with this or how long this will last, but i do know that this is the first step that i needed to take.
I havent matured over night, but i certaintly feel different than i did when i went to bed last night.
Welcome to my head, just some of the things that run through it on a regular basis.
I love my mom, shes the coolest person i know.
Jorge im glad we became such good friends man, your like family to me. YOur my best friend, dont let that shit change.
Im ready for college, and im ready to take it on in a new perspective, im not a different person that i was before, i just have a new mindset.
Im tired and this is a lot to think about, leave me a comment or two, i could use one.
