a sunday full of nothing to do.....
.....gives you random thoughts. go with me here. :)
with nothing else to do this afternoon, i laid around thinking about how fast time has flown by. i'm going to be 21 in like two months. and that blows me away. it's like, where did time go? i can vividly remember me and jason playing basketball like everyday together. i can close my eyes and see us in that gold thunderbird. him driving us to school, me controlling the CD player. good times. those are some of my favorite memories. we listened to good charlotte and new found glory when no one else knew who they were. we had our own parts to sing in the songs. and we could probably still remember them today.
there's only three people i still keep in good touch with that i've literally grown up with. cala, ezelis, and miranda. i've known cala all my life cause she's my cousin. i met ezelis and miranda in 3rd grade, and the rest is history. we all went from playing house, to swimming, to coloring, to calling boys and gossiping. now me, ezelis, and cala are in college. miranda is married. gah it's insane. i can't get over it. today ezelis read part of a note i wrote her in like 10th grade. i kept saying over and over "i am so stupid!" its fun to go back and remember how silly you were in high school.
i swear just yesterday i was fourteen. i thought i had so many worries when i really didn't. all i had to do was be a kid, and i couldn't understand that. i couldn't wait to grow up. it's amazing what the ages of 14, 15, and 16 held for me. even if i didn't want to grow up, i had to. situations and consequences and decisions forced me to. but no lie, the summer before i started my sophomore year of high school is the summer i will never forget. i think everyone has those kinds of summers....the one where you start realizing you're not a kid anymore. you learn so many new things. that was the one for me. it was mostly just me and him, and a couple of my friends. i've never learned so much from one person in my entire life. that about sums it up.
and now, here i sit. getting ready to turn 21 and move away on my own for the first time. away from the security of anderson. i guess i know once i move, i probably won't live in this house again. it's possible but not likely. but i'm ready.
see? someone needs to give me something to do on sunday afternoons or else i go way deep into these thoughts.

something's in the air tonight.
so i just got back tonight from nashville.
pretty sure i left my heart there. it's freaking amaaaazing.
i finally got to visit my art school i'll be going to. i crossed my fingers that they would like my portfolio....and they did :) i sat in on a class, met a few people. um, i LOVE it. i would go right now if i could, seriously. i can't wait.
this is all like a new beginning to me. i get to start over in a brand new place. no one knows me, my past, anything about me. it's exciting. i'm not great at making friends, but hopefully i'll get past that.
i've had to learn lately that letting go is okay. even though it hurts so bad...it's good for you. if you don't let go of some things, you can never move forward. i can't go to nashville still holding onto some things here at home. trust me when i say it's the hardest thing ever. to watch things you've grown so close to slip away. i mean, just in the past month, so many things have changed. for one, my brother got married and has already moved to Kentucky. i can't lie, i cried. no one saw though ;) but anyways. i'm one to push feelings down and ignore them. but it gets harder as the weeks go by. so here's to letting go of some things and a new beginning...
i just pray it stops hurting so bad.

extra extra!
oh, the south. you gotta love it. here's some news...
1. I was watching the news when I heard some teenagers broke into Wren High School. I looked at the mugs on the screen and wouldn't you know one of the kids is a regular customer at Skin's. I died laughing, which is mean.....but this is something I never would have guessed about this kid. He comes in like twice a week. I could even tell you what he gets. He broke into Wren, the alarm went off, and him and his friends fleed on bikes. This guy has a car. Come on everybody. Let's not be dumb and turn into criminals.
2. I guess I'm a news junkie....cause then I got on the computer and went to independentmail.com and was reading just a lovely, dazzling news article....pshhh. Yeah right, we live in Anderson. Here's what happened. A guy said he was in Wal-Mart sitting on the toilet when a "bald white man with a Hooter's shirt and a pocketknife" came into the stall and threatened him. Then the victim guy said he got up off the toilet and pushed him away with both hands. End of story. Listen, I'm not sure a big bald guy with a Hooter's shirt sounds scary to me. Nevertheless, I wouldn't want to be threatened either.
3. Let's move on to exciting news. My brother, Jason, and his fiance, Liz, are FINALLY getting married this weekend! Look how precious....

I've been waiting for this a long time, so I'm pretty excited. Liz asked me to a bridesmaid, which I've never been before. I felt honored ;) My family from Chicago is flying in too, so this will be just one big weekend of happiness. I hope it comes fast!
Peace :)
