the past week has been one of the best...i wish i could properly capture the emotions so strongly coursing through my veins. i'm falling for an amazing girl and got into the perfect school. i haven't slept in my own bed in a week and enjoyed a relaxing, de-stressing three-day weekend. it's city year for kids right now and so i am thoroughly enjoying the break from the ordinary. i'm hesitant to make any moves forward with myself...i don't know why. maybe because i would love to stay in this moment forever. i really am blown away with the goodness around me. the people who i'm forming strong bonds with inspire me. this is not to say my life is perfect, but i'm so proud of my own strength right now. i've achieved so much this year...in the personal growth sense. lately i've been finding myself dealing with stress, and life in general, with such ease and comfort. i've been able to take deep breaths and step back from problems to gain perspective. fabulous. :)the only thing scary right now is the prospect of up-rooting myself to asheville and away from these new-found comforts. i haven't been under the influence of anything for over a week, pretty fucking cool. and over the weekend i went to a coffee shop and sat around with friends and then proceeded to go to a thrift store and then to my roof where we relaxed and did a photo shoot. it's me...i've just been hiding behind a false-sense of timidity and ridiculous self-consciousness. fuck yea.
