In this place I like to call my home.
My life has changed a lot in the last year and a half. I’ve grown up a lot, I’ve learned a lot. I’ve fallen in love and basically started a new life for myself. In a lot of ways I’m not the same person that I was when I started this. And I don’t think it fits my life the same way it once did.
Matt and I are getting settled, and we both find that we both spend less time at the computer, or when we do it’s working on career related stuff, writing songs, searching for jobs, sending e-mails…
In a lot of ways I’m not really Leslie Carter, Nick and Aaron’s sister, anymore. I’m Leslie Carter, soon to be college student living with her boyfriend and working to support herself. I think I like that Leslie even better. The drawback to that is that being surrounded by people who have “made it” and people who see me, as Nick and Aaron’s sister is hard. It only serves to remind me of what I didn’t quite have. I don’t really want that reminder hanging over me, even though I love a lot of you so so much.
I just want to be Leslie, the girl who BBQs with her boyfriend on the back porch, and volunteers at the animal shelter and sings to the moon when she thinks no one else is listening.
To be that person I have to give up some things, and this journal is one of those.
This is the last stop, thank you all for being a part of my life and helping me to become the person I am today.
[I’ve thought long an hard about this for a while and vacillated over the decision. But I think that it’s time that I close this journal.
I won’t be deleting it, or giving it up for adoption, because I’m proud of what I created and have a lot of good memories. I don’t think that I could stand to see anyone take over something I put so much work into. I also think that Leslie is a character that could very easily be done poorly. I can only hope I did her justice.
I feel as this journal is only in the game for one or two people, and I lack the inspiration and desire that I felt when I first created this journal.
Thank you all for the good times, and the dramatic ones. It’s been fun. Most of you I’m sure I’ll still see in one form or another.

Some friends become enemies some friends become your family
Make the best with what you're givin
This ain't dying this is livin
Said were movin on and we've got nothin to prove

Were movin on and on and on and on and on and on and on....
Keep movin on
Life.
Hope.
Truth.
Trust.
Faith.
Pride.
Love.
Lust.
Pain.
Hate.
Lies.
Guilt.
Laugh.
Cry.
Live.
Die.
