...down again, and see you drive away...
Tonight on the eve of my nineteenth birthday, I figured now would be as good a time as any for another of my contemplatively shallow reflections.
Things around here in Iowa have been alright lately. Although my last class is a 300 level class, it doesn't look like it's going to be too terrible.
Also, the next time any of you Wichitans will see me, I'll have braces. Yay for something completely humiliating.
I'm planning to do a lot of celebrating this weekend to try to get my mind off the impending and the past, and just to relax on the whole. Hah.
It's been a rough year since I became a legal adult. It seems like the joy of moving onto college was clouded by the loss of someone so dear to me, it still makes me a little nauseous to realize that they're not going to be around for anymore of the important moments of my life. It's been getting harder the past couple of days.
Also, lately I've been closing myself off from a lot of the people I hang out with around here. I don't know why. I've kind of realized I'm a bit of a restless loner. I mean, I need people, but lately I just feel really selfish, because I honestly don't care all that much at all.
Anyway, here's to this year not making me anymore of the few people I have left that I deeply love and care for. Here's to staying connected with people I love that I've left. Here's to not completely shutting everyone out this year. And most of all, here's to the (hopefully more wonderful) age of 19.
