Holidays

This has been the hardest Christmas yet. It's been a hard holiday season. It's tough enough trying to split the holidays between parents, but it's even harder since I've moved out. It's harder to see my dad not celebrate Thanksgiving with anyone in his family. It's hard to watch my mom crying on Christmas because she wants so badly to be with her children. Being 18 doesn't make me an adult. It doesn't make me able to hold back the tears that have been pouring down my face all day. I hate thinking how things will only grow further apart. I don't know how to hold my composure when the one person I've always looked up to in every way possible is broken.

Sucker

A lot happens in two years.
Regardless, there will always be that constant.

Finals

I've taken two exams thus far. I'm taking another in 15 minutes.
Then I have two 10-page papers due tomorrow, and a presentation accompaning one of them.

DAMN. I'm beyond stressed, but it's almost over.
Tonight I'll be writing those papers for hours.

Back to NC on Friday. How weird.

My boyfriend

I won tickets to see Chris Brown on dec. 23rd. Hellllllll yes.

Chris Brown, Bow Wow, Shop Boyz, Soulja Boy and Lil Mama.


Daaaaamn.

I'm happy with my schedule. I'm eager for new classes. New major. New kids.

It's funny when you realize that some of the people you care so much about are the shittiest of all. What's even funnier is how they are the hardest ones to let go of.


I go home for Thanksgiving break in one week and two days.
Amen for vegan mashed potatoes.

Circle of Life

A lot has changed since I moved to Chicago back in August. But then again, not much has changed at all. I want to be confident with where I'm going in my life, but it's hard to be when I don't know where that is.
Thanksgiving break is in 1 1/2 weeks. That will be nice.
