And I completely get what you're saying. I feel the same way. I want to be so much more than I am, that I'm doing, I want to see and feel and experience and know more.. live life to the fullest :] I feel really pathetic stuffed up in this little town sometimes.
I also know what you mean about things piling up ha, it is crazy. And yeah I mean, I think since Beth died (one of my best friends, who I wrote the poem for) I have become numb to alot of things. And I sometimes feel like people shouldn't be depressed over anything less than death.. but that's ridiculous. i just know I felt really stupid once I experience that, for all the things that once got me down. But with my grandmother.. I don't know if it's because I'm stronger, or as you said, more numb. I've accepted it alot easier.
But I guess it's all a part of growing up, and part of experiencing life. That's why we aren't twelve anymore ha.
Yes exactly! And I mean, we do have the opportunity to leave.. I personally cannot wait until I'm living in Oxford. It was weird when I took the tour (I'm going to Ole Miss btw ha), because it kind of hit me that my life is just now beginning. I've always considered my teen years to be the ones that would define me, the ones that would change me and give me experiences and just really be it for me. But there's so much more ahead of me! I have so much more room to grow and become a more broadened person, and I think Oxford Mississippi will be just the place ;) Considering it's the only place in Mississippi I even like ha. (PEOPLE RIDING BIKES AND WALKING AND PHONE BOOKS AND BOOK STORES
