Seriously. Things seem to be turning up for me. It was the last day of the quarter in school today, and my grades are actually adequate. I think they're the best that I've had since my 1st quarter of seventh grade. I actually have a 3.6, of which I am extremely proud. I'm actually on honor role! Like I said, first time since seventh grade. Sure, I got 3.5s in my sevie year, but not 3.6s! Ha, enough of this. Continuing on, I got to hang a bit with one of my closest friends who I felt I was drifting away from. We have only 2 classes together, one of which is orchestra and we can't talk there because, well, it's orchestra. Not to mention she plays a different instrument than me. The other is Seminary, but our seminary class is divided into two groups, and of course, she is in the other. Blah blah, I rant. Anyways, we went to the district art show--where we both submitted some art--and we both got ribbons. She only entered one piece, whereas I entered about 5(not my fault, the art teacher took them all). She got an honorable mention while I got 2nd place in black and white pencil along with 4th place in the same category and an honorable mention as well. Pretty fan-freaking-tastic. I hope that I'll be able to remain as close with her though, because we have really similar interests and personalities. Unfortunately, I'm going to Korea for three entire months this summer, so it might be difficult to uphold relationships with my friends. Eh, I'll send post cards. |

Realization has dawned upon me. And the realization that has occurred is that: Love makes exceptions. Like I've said before, I'm almost positive that I've never really been in love, but I've been in like, if that makes any sense at all. At one point, I convinced myself that I only liked boys with shaggy blond hair and blue as the sky eyes. Maybe it's because the first guy I ever fell in 'like' with looked like that. But so many absurd things are trying to convince you that there's only one type of guy that you are allowed to like, and you have to stick with it. Have you ever seen one of those survey quiz things on Myspace? The very last category is "In a guy/girl..." and it goes on to ask what eye color, hair color, body type, height, etc. you most prefer. Is it not possible to like guys with different eye colors? What about personalities? Don't they matter too? Sure, I think guys with blue eyes are attractive, but I've seen guys that look good with brown eyes, and that wouldn't look so... put together as they do if they had different eye colors. If everyone in the world had blue eyes and blond hair it wouldn't make those elements special anymore, would it? This is kind of going off subject. The point is, it's easy to be bent on something that you think you know that you want, but you can meet someone else without that feature, and you like them anyways. I hope that I'm making sense. |
