The year started off different. I was letting go of a past I wasn't proud of, but that I was owning up to. But then a guy came into my life. It looked promising from the beginning, but it ended on a bad note. We broke up, twice. He kept saying it was going to get better, but I saw nothing change. I gave every single ounce of my hope towards the relationship, but I realized I shouldn't have. It wasn't used the correct way.
We had arguments more than we should have, meaning we shouldn't have had any at all, but my opinions and beliefs were different from his. I didn't care whether ours were the same or different. I thought it was great having this person so different than me, so we could have great in depth talks, but he didn't see it that way. I wanted so much to believe in the relationship. I spent way more time than I should have with him.
After our final break-up, I hung out with my two best friends. They had been there for me from the very beginning of the year to the end. They went shopping till our feet were sore, let me talk till my voice was hoarse, and spent hours just listening to what I had to say about that guy. They mean the world to me and I wouldn't replace them. They are my sisters, definitely and I love them.
At the beginning of the year, I told myself that I couldn't audition for a play at the theater I perform at usually. It was going to be difficult, but I ended up getting a job, which took up a lot of my time. I was so thankful to have that distraction. I ended up working the night of one of the auditions of the summer production. It was so tempting to go there, but I knew I didn't need it. I was spending time with That Guy and the friends I needed.
I loved the summer. It's my second favorite season. I can get a tan, wear shorts and put my hair in braids and sleep in as late as I feel like. I had more time to spend with my photography and just "be." It worked, for a little while.
When school started I was so happy to start focusing my time on something. I started to excersize and run. I found a new love for it and tried to run as much as possible. Running helped me be a better, happier me. I noticed a change between when I was ran and when I didn't. I found a great running partner who helped me keep going even when I thought I couldn't finish.
I was in drama class again, so that kinda helped cope with not doing plays. I had great friends in that class, so I enjoyed being around them. I also did choir which had great people too. In each class I had a different bond between everyone. They were all nice and I enjoyed their company.
This past year had started with a lot in store. I had my first love, gotten my licence, had the summer worth living, became a legal adult in Georgia, and made new friends. That sounds like the best year a person could have. I wouldn't trade it for anything, for sure. (: MaggieMae909 ♥
