HELLO DARKNESS, MY OLD FRIEND.

Apr 02, 2015 22:21

LIVEJOURNAL, MY OLD FRIEND. I kind of forgot about you, but fortunately you're kind of desperate and have resorted to sending mass HEY I'M STILL HERE PLEASE COME BACK e-mails and I was reminded of your shenanigans. And now I'm here.

March 27th, 2004. That was the date I created you. Friend, you just had your 11th birthday. I'm sorry I missed it. You're basically a sixth grader. So, so much has changed. When I created this journal, I was a kid. I was an angst-ridden teenager that had no self-esteem and zero motivation for the future. I swore that I would never go to college and I thought the person that gave me my first kiss was the person I was going to marry.

Well... I'm 26 now. I (finally) graduated from college last year. I (spoiler alert) did not end up with the guy that gave me my first kiss (or the second guy... or third...). I still have no idea what I want to do career-wise, but I've finally found a job I love in the meantime. And if it never happens, so what? I'm happy. I moved somewhere I thought I'd never live with my boyfriend of five years. I cannot wait to get married and to start a family with him. I am 100% content with my life.

We've all changed so much. Some have gotten married. Some have had kids. Some have been in debilitating accidents, and some are out there (successfully!) making a name for themselves. That tiny Sonoma bubble we all knew is just a memory that's fading alarmingly quickly.

I hope y'all are doing well. Wherever you are.

<3
