The Wonders of MY Life

So I'm sitting here eating some Cheez-Its trying to figure out what to write when one of my best friends in the entire world makes a pact with me to make a blog entry everyday throughout the month of August. Now I'm going to try my hardest to not break this pact and I hope that she does that same.

Now it's been a few days since my first post and I've been busy so I haven't had much time to write. But in these few days I've been chatting with some friends from home that I miss an insane amount. But it makes me wonder with all the time that I've spent missing my friends, which I feel that I am entitled to do since they help keep me grounded, I've been missing out on some of the fun times that I could have been having this summer hanging with friends that I have here. Maybe finding a certain someone to spend the summer with. As of today I only have 16 days left until I return home to all my friends, classmates, and normality. But what I with these next 16 days are going to end up defining my summer. I promise myself I will make good choices in the next 16 days while still living it up to prove that I didn't just sit around and work all summer.

So, with August beginning tomorrow I'm wondering how is this school year is going to end up for me. Am I going to tank? Will I excel, making this my best high school year to date? Am I going to maintain an average that my parents will be proud of? I have always done a pretty exceedingly well job in school but as I progress through high school it causes me to wonder how the next year will turn out. These final two years of my high school career will prove how far i get into whatever industry I want to get into. If that industry ends up being fashion, teaching, or journalism, all of which i hold a passion that i wouldn't mind pursuing. This year holds a lot for where I will be headed farther now the line in my life. I guess we will all just see what will happen next.

The next wonder that I have for this coming school year is will I find someone that makes me truly happy, someone that I want to spend my free time with. Who is person will be, is the true question? More questions that come with finding a person like this is, will my parents like him? What about my friends? Will he be a gentleman? Someone that genuinely cares for me? I don't know who this person will be, when they will arrive in my life, I just hope that he makes me as happy as I can be.

Well I do believe that is all I have to wonder about tonight. And with 20 minutes until the start of a new month with a blog post everyday, I figure I should turn and get some sleep.

The First Blog: About Me

So even though normally people start blogs to keep up with what they do during the summer I'm a little late on the uptake as always. So even though it is almost time for school to start, I'm going to keep writing. Mostly to chronicle the final weeks of my summer and my Junior year in high school. I take the paths in my life and I don't look back and regret the decisions I make. I don't compromise the person I have become through my 16 years of life with stupid decisions that could ruin my chances of having the future that I have always worked for.

My life consists of living in two place, having two sets of friends, and dealing with situations of having divorced parents. For as long as I can remember my parents have been divorced it's something that i grew up with and I've just learned to live with it. There are definite perks of divorced parents, but mostly its hard because my parents live 12 hours away from each other. Because of that minute detail I spend the school year with my mom missing my dad and family, and I spend some holidays and my summer with my dad missing my mom and family, as well as my best friends from school.

My friends help my life thrive and whenever I'm feeling blue they help me get through it. They are the rocks I lean on when there are problems in life and I help them when they need it. I'm sure through the process of reading my blog you will here all about all of my closest friends.

Well now that you've gotten some of the basics of my life I should probably start to tell you what I've been up to during the majority of my summer. During this summer I have sprained my ankle, started working at Dairy Queen, and have spent most of my other free time with my friends. I've been helping with America Cancer Society events and I spent a week camping with some of my family that I hadn't seen in a really long time. I've had a pretty busy summer and I'm kinda bummin that its almost over. But at the same time I'm excited for school to start so that I can see all my friends that I have been missing all summer as well as getting my drivers license in October.

Well that's all for now. I'll write again soon!
