(no subject)
A couple dys have passed so I thought I'd keep y'all updated because Im sure you're on the edge of your seats. I got my financial aid award notice from Hawaii, and I am getting a crap load so thats good. Although I have so much more paperwork to do. Everytime I think Im almost done I get more. Atleast Ill have almost no time to do it.
Im leaving for my backpacking trip on Friday. Wish me luck, and Ill post some pictures. Last night I was feeling a little down, so I read through some of my really old journals. I wonder if anyone else does this? It always makes me feel better to read how much Ive been through and how far Ive made it. From the kid I was to the older kid Ive become. Usually it makes me cry, but it didnt this time for some reason. I realized when I was reading that as much as I like to think of myself on my own, and as much as my life has seemed to be me against the world, there have been a lot of people along the way that have helped me, eventhough sometimes I dont like to admit it.
Most of them i dont talk to anymore. Thats probably because I just use them, or just used them. I watched a movie called about a boy, which is a very good movie by the way, but it made me think about myself. He says in the movie that every man is an island, and thats how I like to think of myself. But to see how pathetic his life seemed in that movie made me wonder i thats how my life is. But of course it ended happy with him undoing his island status and reaching out to people. I dunno, its hard to explain; go rent it.
Thats it.
