Senior year update

Sep 04, 2008 01:15

Meh, I don't even know why I even bother to update this journal...probably because I need to rant my behind off. I'm not even sure why I'm so frustrated so maybe this will help.

I know I have changed since my uncle's death. I don't even recognize myself as the same person last year. I didn't even realize how much I've changed until I was looking through my photos for some pictures to use in Art, only to find pictures from my uncle's funeral. I just broke into tears as I ranted to Jeremy online. It's like I'm dragging an infinitely heavy burden on me without even knowing it was there. I catch myself doing things that I'm not familiar doing. I've even stopped biting my fingernails, I remember what I'm supposed to do, and I've been sleeping on time. I'm more outspoken and precise in my thoughts, yet at the same time, I don't know what I'm doing but...I'm learning somehow--learning how to deal with the quiet turmoil that slumbers in me from time to time.

Then there's the other thing. I don't kow if my girl instincts have finally kicked their way into my brain, but I'm starting to feel like a...deadbeat. I feel bad for ranting to some guys just randomly when I'm upset; it's just not their problem. I shouldn't be such a downer on everyone else's day just because I'm feeling out of control of my emotions. I can't help it though; I can't help that I feel like I'm the "owner of a lonely heart." My friends aren't at school anymore since they graduated or went to the state school for math and science. Most of my favorite teachers are gone, and I feel just awkward talking to those who remain. It's like I don't have that much to say anymore.

My hobbies, my passion, and my work have all been distractions for me lately. Distractions from the agonizing pain from recalling the regret I have for my uncle. Distractions from the lack of my friends present. Distractions from the feelings that leave me feeling helpless.
