Tear Drops: Graduation, 18, and summer

What's there to know about me?

I love to read and write my inner thoughts

but most of the time they are kept secret

Looking for my fairy tale

but given up on many chances

Major nerd attending Lowell High

I like crazy baking sessions on weekends

I love my supportive friends who are

always watching over me and keeping me safe

God's on my side and no one can take that away

There have been many ups and downs

but there's hope

Tears are a must

and I've had my heart broken too many times

too focus on school and sometimes

too serious

but I know how to have fun

Ask me to sing you a song

or to dance

or walk up to the bus stop with me

Get to know me and you'll see

I'm learning how to trust, believe, be dedicated, and faithful

all at the same time

Roses are pretty and pictures are worth more than words

I miss those who have gone away from my life

especially those who I love

sometimes I think that life can't get any worse

But I realize that there are people

living in other countries that don't even

have half of the things that I do

and it makes me think, I really am blessed

Without God I really don't know what I'd do

I can't imagine my life without Him

I maybe leave Him behind sometimes

and ignore Him and reject Him

But He will never leave me

I’m forgiven because You were forsaken,

I’m accepted, You were condemned.

I am alive and well, Your sprit is within me,

Because You died and rose again.

Amazing love,

How can it be?

That You, my King would die for me?

Wow so time to reflect and I mean to really reflect after all the events that have occurred over the past two/three weeks. So i graduated finally and I cried yes...i was sad to be leaving but at the same time really glad that I'm about to start another chapter of my life. I really couldn't believe it when I stood on stage collecting flowers and then passing them on to the next generation of students, wishing that I could stay longer to share experiences with them and leave memories along with advice to get through the hardships of Lowell. So anyways it was an amazingly long long graduation but we got through it after sitting through some 600 names being called. It was really great though I can't be any happier knowing that I've completely 12 years of education and now I'll be continuing at UCSB. So anyways yeah that's my spiel about graduation.
So onto the next topic, right after graduation or well more like the next day, it was my 18th birthday!! I know so many life changing events all at once...So anyways I went to watch Kung Fu Panda with some friends and then we had fondue and it was soo much fun. Then Harrison brought me up to Twin Peaks and we hung out there for a while. It was really weird like there were warm spots and cold spots up there. I was wearing shorts and didn't bring an extra change of clothing so we would walk around to all the warm spots...kind of weird but at least I wasn't freezing. So thank you sooo much for all the good birthday memories and wishes! I had a really great time.
So yep now it would June 13th and I had another thing to do...I started work today and my goodness i was pretty embarrassed because I had not waitressed before so I made so many mistakes... but over time it's gotten easier and it's pretty fun : D. Talking to the tourists that visit the restaurant is pretty fun too especially when they're from way out of town and they're here for a couple of days. The kids are pretty cute too and even though I'm sad about not being able to do daycamp, I pray that all the leaders are able to understand God's plans for them and I pray that God will give them strength and knowledge to handle all the different situations that they'll go through. So yep working has been okay.

so yeah overall summer has been okay, just "chillin" and working and making memories before starting college...kind of scared of it but hopefully it'll be okay. : D
