My seventeenth birthday was on Monday. And you know what? It feels great to know that I survived another year in this place. It's even better to know that I only have one more year. One more year and I can escape to where ever I desire, or at least another state. =] I have a lot of possibilities because of the people I know, and I'm so thankful for that. After all, I'm gonna need all the help I can get. Of course I could do it on my own, but I don't have to, and I don't want to. And even though it's hard to believe sometimes, there are people who have my back. They might not be the people I wanted, or thought would always be there, but they love me, and that's where it's at.
I want to leave this place, and I want to become someone. I want more for my life than the same redundant theme. I want to chase my goals, I want to reach my dreams. I don't want to be okay with the way things are. Even if I have to search my whole life for what I want, I'll be happy with that. I feel like life is about the mystery. It's about creating who you are. It's about taking chances and making outrageous decisions. It's about being spontaneous. It's about loving everyone in your own way. It's about learning to forgive. It's about trusting. It's about living life in the way only you can. Life is about making it yours.
That's what I think anyway. And that's what counts.
Well, October is almost over. And I've changed a lot. I can feel it already. I've been through so much in such a short time. And I've learned that if I can just survive one more year, I'll be able to take on the world. I'm gonna be something. I'm going to do big things. And I'm never going to look back.
