After much thought, I finally decided to make the switch from LiveJournal, who I was with since eighth grade. My username is outdated, as is everything I write about- complaints mostly, there is nothing of substance. I'm trying to become more serious with my writing, so I figured a fresh start is just what I need.
From now on you can find me at:

This past weekend I traveled to Washington, DC with 2,000 other people from aross the United States- 256 people came from California, the state with the most attendees and one of the farthest away- to lobby for children who don’t have a voice- the Invisible Children. It was a truly life-changing experience. My heart was full of love as I was

It's hard to believe it's already May and summertime is upon us. It's been almost two years since I graduated high school, which is near impossible to imagine. My baby brother is going to graduate high school in two years. I will no longer be a teenager in 27 short days. When did life start flying by? A few weeks ago I went out to eat with my

I just wrote a wonderful entry, but it posted blank. I hate when that happens. I will try to get as close to what was previously written

Lately I've felt like I need to constantly surround myself with friends. I generally feel anxious if I'm alone... like I'll never see anyone again, like I don't interact socially enough, like if I don't spend more time with people I will end up being a recluse for my time spent on Earth. I never used to be very bothered if I was home alone, but

Today was a good day. Even though I woke up two hours later than I originally intended, I accomplished more schoolwork than I anticipated I would. I'm ahead of myself for the first time this semester. Taking all of these online/mixed classes is going to be killer. I get distracted too easily and I procrastinate too much. I need a routine. Once I

While I don't enjoy sleeping, I do appreciate dreaming. Dreaming is the simplest of ways to escape the harshness of reality. You don't need to worry about the wrongs you've committed, what could be better, or what could be worse. You just… sleep. You allow your mind to have complete control, taking you to a world better than the one you’re trapped

After a day full of headaches yesterday, a sleepless night last night, and a day of worrying today, I have finally gotten my spring schedule settled! I'm going to campus on Monday & Wednesday's for three classes and I have one online class. If a spot in Creative Writing opens up, and I really really hope one does, then I will add that to my

Even though I wasn't born with the gift of eloquence, I've always enjoyed writing. So I made a New Year's Resolution (except I don't really believe in those) to write more & actually share what I write. This will be a little scary for me. I've been going to websites that offer daily/weekly writing prompts to guide me while I write. This was
