i think a lot of us write in journals because they're like a blank chalkboard. you can write anything that comes to your mind, and then edit it... it's harder to do that with paper and pen (of course there are some people that just use them for attention) your journal entry sounded so grown up it was incredible... becoming a young woman is the hardest trial anyone could ever face... believe me. you're in for a rough few years... it's like being in limbo between childhood and adulthood, where no one takes you seriously as either... it's like adults see adolescence as a time where young women are supposed to: be seen and not heard be pretty and not smart act like adults, but ignore the fact that they're still treated like children!
this should be a time all about becoming who you truly are, rather than who everyone thinks you should be.. true to yourself isn't always the most convenient thing to be, but in the long run it'll keep you happier, healthier and less confused. and now i'm rambling :) keep in touch.. sorry i'm never online
I love you Emily....xxerrxxJanuary 27 2006, 11:29:33 UTC
The thing that confuses me is, everyone who is my age only thinks about boyfriends and shit. But they are considered too mature for their age. But I don't believe that a 13 year old can even have a boyfriend. "I'll have my mommy drive me and you can have your daddy drive you, meet me..." Gah.
After I read that sentence about the limbo that you wrote, I looked at the television and their was a commercial for that Chicken Limbo thing :P That was just great.
Erin, I am so in love with you. You're wonderous. and the whole 13 year old boyfriend-obsessed thing, it's so true. all of the girls are like "ew, omigah, you've only had 3 boyfrieds, ew" umm the term is "going out", isn't it? you can't exactly go out if you don't have a way of getting anywhere, yanno? and geez.. just coz you don't have a boyfriend doesn't mean you can't have fun ;] but i'm totally kidding.. it's 2 in the morning, and i woke up at 4 this morning, so i'm probably coming off as a major intense faggot right now.
PS. I want to get into a fist fight...a real physical fight damnit. Not some female cat-fight.
go read my journal like, now. you can have my back.
i think you are years more mature than me, to be able to truly be trying to figure out who you are, to be able to actually speak what you are feeling, but not in an emotional-rage type of way, more in a philosphical (sp?) truly mature sort of way are all things I really wish I coulkd bring myself to do.

becoming a young woman is the hardest trial anyone could ever face... believe me. you're in for a rough few years... it's like being in limbo between childhood and adulthood, where no one takes you seriously as either... it's like adults see adolescence as a time where young women are supposed to:
be seen and not heard
be pretty and not smart
act like adults, but ignore the fact that they're still treated like children!
this should be a time all about becoming who you truly are, rather than who everyone thinks you should be.. true to yourself isn't always the most convenient thing to be, but in the long run it'll keep you happier, healthier and less confused.
