My last entry was years ago. And the one before that, years before.
And while I feel a slight pang of nostalgia reading those innocent, rebellious, entries from high school, in some ways I feel I must re-introduce myself. I am. Still Laura Lee McGrath. Still thinking too much. Still listen to the same music, somewhat. Still a good student. Still a human being, flesh and blood. But I am definitely not giving out the same inner person as I did before... Experience has been had.
So, to myself, and to those of you who might read this twenty-first century journal, I would highly recommend you see this entry as my first. And refer to the ones previous, as a younger version of myself. And while I will write and analyze thoughts, I will mainly be documenting things I want to remember. Memories. For later reading. If Miss Anne Frank only had live journal, eh?
... So now ...

I had a fish tank emergency this morning. Sadly one of them died :( ... I was really upset. I had finals last week and was too busy to clean it, so I planned on doing a heavy-duty job this morning. I took out too much of my water, and I think the change in temperature shocked one of my fish. And of course, I had good ol Mike on the phone making me feel like such an asshole. But oh well. hahaha. I just cleaned my whole apartment, I'm about to work out, and I feel fabulous. Nothing like being in this space that I created, of which all of the objects inside are remnant of memories I have created. Clean. And smelling good. I went to the record store in there (I'm obsessed with buying vinyl right now) and the homie gave me a pack of "spiritual guide" incence since I kept commenting on the smell... and mmm. hahah. Feeling a bit hippie at the moment I guess. I'm even wearing cut offs... hahaha. I need to snap about of it though. I need to work out and get ready to make dinner with my guy. :)
I miss Tay. (Picture of us down below.)
I'll be writing more often. Ciao.
