there's a second time for everything...

well, this would be my second attempt at a blog. i don't actually know how long this one will last, but we will see. and a big thanks to kelsey for inspiring me to start up a blog. last year i tried journaling everyday, and i ended up being pretty successful. however, the journaling stopped once i started working at camp.

so, i am over a quarter done with my last year here at northwestern. it's hard to think about not being here, but i know that i need to move on. i need to seek out other places and just learn to live on my own. i don't exaclty know if i am ready for this, but there's only one way to find out. and boy, will that be interesting.

i'm ready to grow up, i think. i'm ready to start acting my age. i don't exactly know what that means for me, but i think the time has come. i need to stop being so lazy with what i do and start living with purpose. not that i wasn't before, i just need a change in my life. sometimes i get sick of being viewed as the one with the crazy view on life. i'm still living as a college freshman. i need to stop. i'm a senior, for goodness sake. sometimes i think that people think i dont take life seriously and that i joke all the time. well, i don't.....all the time. i'm ready to grow up. i'm ready to be taken seriously and to take life seriously. it starts today, i've decided.
we'll see how it goes.
