i haven't posted in over a month. i don't wanna separate from this journal. but lots has happened. um lets see. i've decided that I'm going to be attending the University of New Haven next year, and I couldn't be anymore excited. I'm entering as a communications major, hopefully with a concentration in Journalism. I was thinking about the other day how much time really has flown by. I remember my first day of kindergarten when I wore my favorite leopard dress and sat next to Ashley Campbell. It scares me that I'm looking for prom and graduation dresses and that the next graduation and prom I attend will be my own. I can't believe how much of my life has changed and the person I've become. The people I've met and befriended, the ones I've lost. The places I've been and the ones I will go. It really lets me know how amazing life is. This journey I'm going on, and the journey I have ahead of me. I cannot wait to continue and start a new chapter. I cannot wait to continue the life I'm living and have it change. Of course when I leave here, I'll miss it. Everyone and everything I'm used to will mostly be gone. But I'll become comfortable with new things, and at this point in my life, I know I'll be okay.
As for prom, I'm not going with my date anymore. Last tuesday he told me he couldn't go anymore. I know regardless I'll have a good time, but I know I'll feel more alone and almost pathetic then ever, as unfortunate as that sounds. I don't want anyones sympathy over this, I don't need anyones sympathy. If I let all of this get to me, it will break me down and ruin the happiness I have regardless of what has happened. I'm over prom. I'm going and that's it. I'll deal with it and have as much fun as I can without a date. Sure, pictures are going to suck. So are the slow dances. But whatever, I'll get over it. All I have to do is get through this next month, and it'll be over and I'll be done. That's all I need. Is for this to be over.
Things with my family are good. Jess' graduation for Northeastern was this past thursday and friday. I can't believe she's a college graduate already. I don't think she knows how truly proud of her I am. I don't think she will ever know. But I am and I hope she'll one day realize it. My parents are good. My whole family is doing well. We're starting to build up to where we used to be financially, and I know things will never be the same, but it's starting to come close and I'm very happy about that.
I think there are only few people that I need in my life. Alex, my family, Brittany and Alexa. These girls really know me and I really love the friendships I've developed with them. I always will be close with them and I'm happy to say that.
That's about it. Good luck with finals to everyone whose taking them. I'll hopefully post again soon.
