Time for a gut-spilling post.

Not really. Just wanted to share a few thoughts. First of all, is it just me, or is senior year totally overrated? College apps made me go and reevaluate my entire being, and now I'm all muddled and confused, even after so long. Then, I've been soooo busy with EVERYTHING--school, madrigals, piano, apps, scholarships, ( Read more... )

My friend Savannah's post really made me think about how much I love my brother. So this entry is dedicated to Ben. I have an older brother (22) who has impacted my life so strongly, and I never realized it really until we had to write an essay in spanish about who has had the most influence on our lives. And I chose my brother without hesitation. ( Read more... )

Nice people are so amazing. Seriously. When someone is pleasant and easy-going and just genuinely nice, it makes a whole world of difference in the way things go. I just called someone who was so sweet and understanding, and it just lit up my day. I wish there were more people like that ( Read more... )

Just wanted to say...

I <3 New York City.

It was such an awesome vacation. I deserved to have that much fun, after working my butt off.

On a side note, I am completely, utterly opposed to any idea of doing homework as a second semester senior. It is ridiculous. There is no way in hell I will bring myself to sit at my desk, put on my reading ( Read more... )
