so now i think its time to stop, let my self run smack up to me, and to take a good look so i can get to know her again. we've lost touch. i never liked her much, and i've been trying for a couple years now.... much more since i came to college, to be someone else. but its not right. its not true. its exhausting and just plain not worth it.
so i started out making a list of what i like and dont like. to refresh myself. adn i find i do/let be done to me most of the thigns i dont like. and i havent done alot of the things i do like in quite sometime.
i'm tired of being ashamed of who i am. of having to prove myself over and over again to be whtt other ppl want. this has to stop, even if it means getting into a few fights. if i realy matter to my loved ones as much as i think, then the fights will subside...and i will be left with healthier, more true relationships.
