take these broken wings and learn to fly.
i feel good because i just finished my christmas shopping and the semester is ending.
i feel bad because i haven't started studying nearly enough, and i'm overwhelmed by the fact that i'm moving this weekend.
i feel happy because i know this weekend will be amazingly fun.
i feel sad because i have to say goodbye to floss.
i feel angry because i am alone.
i feel jealous because everyone is getting home before me, and i want to be there now.
i feel silly because i just am.
i feel horrible because my uncle died and i didn't get to say goodbye.
i feel amazing because lauran and i have planned the best road trip ever for this summer.
i feel lucky because i have a best friend like lauran and a great mom.
sometimes you just have to put how you feel into words to get perspective on your life. especially when you think things are going in all the wrong directions. i guess it just opens your eyes to all of the good things in life. even when you think things can't get any worse, they do, but then again, things are never as bad as you think they are.
my name is erin quinn, and i'm starting this journal over. looking back on everything i wrote in here in the past i've realized that i have grown up. not to say i don't still have a lot of growing up to do, because i sure do.
i am 18 years old, a freshman at fredonia state. my major is childhood education, my concentration is english. i love to read and to write. music is always wonderful, all different kinds. i have one of the best mothers in the world. i love my brother and my sister. i miss what home used to be. i miss high school, there i said it, i know you secretly do too. i love college, and i love my friends here. i love my friends from home too. my best friend is lauran cameron faes, and she always will be. i like to get away from everyday life, go on vacations. my favorite spot in the world is horseneck beach in dartmouth massachusetts. london comes in at a close second. i have been to england, france, and scotland. i also like cape cod. i like to sing, even though i'm not the best singer in the world, i can carry a tune. i play the viola. i like zip up hoodies and jeans and sweatpants. i like to wear flip flops all the time, or sneakers. i am moving into one of my good friend's rooms this weekend, and i could not be more excited. my family is messy, and always have been. we have a lot of problems, but we're pretty normal. i don't get along with my dad 90% of the time, but i'm coming to terms with that. i like chocolate and ramen noodles. i can't really cook, although i make good spaghetti. i miss my long hair. i like to get drunk on the weekends and go dancing. i stopped smoking weed once i got to school, but sometimes when i'm at le moyne i smoke a joint. i make a lot of mistakes, but i try not to regret. i feel like everything happens for a reason, and you only live once, so make life worth living.
there it is.
i guess that's it for now. chao chickadees.
