Lots of stuff has happened to me lately... idk, I guess it's just a part of growing up and stuff... I luv college and bein away from home soooooo incredibly much it's hard to even explain... most of the time I don't even care that I live 10 hours away... I wanted to get away... sometimes I really hate Houghton... such a small town... and everybody is in everybody's business... not that it's not that way here sometimes, it's just that people don't care as much, I guess. Or, they do, but they know that you're an adult, and you can make your own decisions. I guess that there's just not as much 'gossip' as there is back home.
I'm sorta sad rite now that I live so far away tho cuz I really want my two younger sisters to come down for a weekend... it would be such a blast. They would have to come down for part of their spring break, but I would make sure that they had fun... we could do so much stuff... and they would probably appreciate gettin away from mom and dad for a while... I know how it was... and they could meet everyone here, it would just be really cool. But my mom doesn't really want them to cuz it's so far away and it is really a horrible bus trip to make, it would just be so completely awesome if they could come. But if they don't, there's always next year when they're seniors, and then they can count any absences as a college visit... that would be really sweet. I miss them!!! Even tho I'm gonna see them this sat lol... I still do miss 'em rite now...
One Last Thought~ I like the way I've been living my life lately. I don't need to constantly be thinking about what others are gonna think, even if I do care about their opinions. As Kate said Christine told her... I need to do things for me. AND that goes for everyone else out there- don't let other people's expectations hold you down, be yourself.
WOW that was a little corny... but I meant every word...
I don't need to be anything other
Than a prison guard's son
I don't need to be anything other
Than a specialist's son
I don't have to be anyone other
Than the birth of two souls in one
Part of where I'm going, is knowing where I'm coming from
I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me
I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn
Am I the only one who noticed?
I can't be the only one who's learned
I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me
Can I have everyone's attention please?
If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave
I came from the mountain
The crust of creation
My whole situtaion-made from clay to stone
And now I'm telling everybody
I don't want to be
Anything other that what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me
I don't want to be
