im kind of excited to be turning 16 and today since i was home alone i self-reflected a bit. in the past 16 years, despite living in the corrupted town of swampscott i turned out somewhat okay, kinda. well here's what i was thinking;
- i have friends whom i adore and a wacky family that i'm not embarrassed by
- i'm shy at first, but completely outgoing once you get to know me
- i could probably live off of Ben and Jerry's ice cream and peanut butter if i had to (since i kinda do already)
- i don't like fake people and i'm not fake with people, so if i don't like you i'll make it obvious
- if there's something i really wanna do, i don't talk about it until i do it
- the word "flafla" makes me fall to the floor laughing
- when i laugh it seems like i'm crying
- i'm too sensitive and i need to toughen up
- i don't like to commit myself to certain things completely because it makes me feel too vulnerable
- i like being unique and making my own paths instead of following someone else's
- i get jealous easily
- i tend to dwell on my incapabilities and physical faults often and i'm never pleased with myself
- i used to wish i were someone else, but now i don't because if everyone wished they were someone else they wouldn't be themsleves and that wouldn't be cool
- i procraastinate WAAY too much..(even though i love those fiestas ;) w/ a few others who i can always count on to be up at 3 a.m. doing some type of h.w.
- i like to write and i like to travel and my dream job would include both of those
- i don't rely on other people..it doesn't get you very far
..yeah, so basically i thought about who i've come to be and who i hope to become. it's kind of depressing that we don't realize important things we would have done differently in the past until later..but i guess this is why it's called life?
(wow i'm so weird..ignore this whole thing, it makes no sense)
