now i see i can be me, in everything i do

right now is winter break. less than a week until i go back to eastern. at the beginning of break i kept thinking that i was in no rush. one month was long enough to do all the things i wanted to do, and i didnt need to rush anything. who was i kidding? a month went by too fast. dont get me wrong, im excited to go back to school. i miss everyone. at the same time, i feel like theres still so much i wanted to do at home that i never did.

its been a really interesting break. its had its share of ups and downs, but thats just the way life goes. its mostly all been really good though. some friendships were fixed, some continued to grow stronger, and some were let go of. things have worked themselves out, some by force and others just through life, and i'm learning to accept those changes.

coming home has made me realize how much i've grown in the fact that i dont need people to define me anymore. i used to depend on my friends so much that i didnt know who i was without them. its so much clearer now that i'm my own person. i now trust that i can do it on my own, stand up for myself, and BE myself.

this has turned out to be a much different entry than ones i've written in the past. i kind of like it.

being farther away has made me appreciate my true friends so much more.
