I'd Be At The Waterfall Clearing My Head, Soaking Up Nature And Thinking Of You
I just cant stop listening to Phish. I saw them FIVE times over the summer, and I'm dying to see them again. SOOOOOOO good.
Speaking of summer... I had an AMAZING summer. Bonnaroo was life-changing. I came back with an entirely new perspective on everything. Being outside for four straight days, listening to music, meeting new people, enjoying life. Absolutely wonderful. I cant wait to do it again! If you dont mind camping, hot sun, and being dirty, I recommend you hit up a festival at some point. It's like a vacation from reality.
Relationship-wise... I couldnt continue on with Nick-- There were many things that I was unhappy about in our relationship. I felt that we were in the same place we were at a year ago. I wanted something more. I felt like Nick and I were stuck in a circle, and I couldnt bear it anymore. I want to be with someone that I could learn and grow and experience all aspects of my life with. I cannot say a bad word about Nick: I think he's a great person with a good head on his shoulders, and he is going to go very far in life. We just werent the right mix, when it comes down to it.
And now, I have this truly amazing boy in my life, Zachariah. It's funny to think that I've only known him since February. We met completely randomly-- He showed up at the big birthday bash I threw for me and three friends. I saw him from across the room and was like... "Who is that guy? He looks cool. I wanna know him." So I went up and introduced myself. And we've talked almost every day since that fateful night. It started out as purely friendship, just getting to know each other. But towards the end of summer, I realized it was going to be something so much more than that. Sometimes you just know, you know? And I think that we're so good for each other. He's patient, loving, honest, affectionate-- We're crazy about each other. It's sick. He listens to everything I have to say, no matter how stupid or pointless it may be. For example: When his parents were out of town, we went to their house because it's so peaceful, out in the country. And his mom has this candy jar full of LifeSavers. I grabbed a white one and out loud to myself was like "Oooh, pineapple is my favourite!" A couple weeks later, he comes over to hang out with me and pulls out a handful of white LifeSavers for me! That KILLS me, because something I said completely randomly and in passing, he remembered and payed attention to and turned it around to surprise me with it. Just silly little things like that mean a lot to me. Every single day I feel like the luckiest girl in the world because I finally found exactly what I never knew I was looking for =)
Anyways... I could talk for days about how much I love Zachariah, but I wont. I'm very very happy with life. Life makes a lot more sense these days than it has in a long time. My heart is just bursting at the seams because not only do I have love for him, but love for everything and everyone. The world is such a wonderful place!
School is... Well, school. I like being old on campus. It cracked me up the first day, because you can definitely tell who the freshmen are. First of all, they all look like they're 12. And secondly, they all dressed up on the first day of classes, like you do in high school when you want to impress everyone. Little do they know, that in college no one really cares. They go to class to learn, not for a fashion show. But anyways... I'm having a hard time getting back into the swing of things, since I had no schedule whatsoever over the summer. But I know that it'll get easier as time goes on, cuz this train's not stopping til Thanksgiving.
Other than that, nothing too exciting in my life. Same ol', same ol'. I'm gonna start going to the rec every day. I wanna lose at least 10 lbs. If I could lose 20, that'd be amazing. But I doubt that'll happen, haha. I just gotta get into a good routine and I'll be set =)
I'm gonna go make art with Hannah. Love to everyone!! <3
