Ah, first post of the new journal. If you are wondering why I got a new one, its because I was having serious issues with the morality of my other name. Since Viola is my favorite Shakespearean character, voila! (no twisting of letters intended). Have you ever had a sense of something that is going to happen, something serious and possibly

Thank you so much for posting that! I'm disgusted at myself for trying to fit in with the popular people and when not just calling them a bunch of mindless-ditzs... the thing is if I keep doing this my self-esteem will always be low because I'm not going to be accepted into a group that favors make-up over books and etc. I'll always feel like the outsider.

Its rather sad how what you just said fits most of us around here. "Posing" to be individual i think was my worst. The cool kids don't care what people think, the cool kids act crazy, the cool kids don't care about dances, the cool kids don't care about people...but sadly i've come to realize that I do care a lot about what people think, and that may not be right, but its true. We just get so lost in who we want to be, that we forget who we were in the first place. But thankfully, i think God is helping me to let go of some of that stuff, the stuff i never really liked but pretended to anyway, the people i never really cared for but befriended because they were "part of the group". I think i'm starting to become myself again, and it makes me feel better than i have in a while, let me tell ya....:D
