Change

 "Sometimes in the waves of change we find our true direction." 

Without going into details the past summer was extremely rough for me, for a multitude of reasons. As the final (10) days of school dwindle down, I want to take this summer head on and make sure I enjoy it. Throughout all the problems I faced in the summer I think they guided me through my decisions this year as a sophomore. I started creating YouTube videos and blogging. Without these two sources of expression I don't know where I would be. I love to write and I always have ideas floating around in my head for stories. I don't always have the opportunity to write every story out but through my blog I can write bits and pieces of my life and my thoughts.

I've never been one for change. Yes, yes, I know it's necessary in order to grow up but I still don't exactly enjoy it. This stems from my childhood; my dad would grow tomatoes and every time he had to cut them down (or whatever else he did) I would cry because all the tomatoes would be gone. Again this happened when my parents tried to sell a couch we had in the basement. The people came to pick up the couch and I cried and cried, so much so that the people said, "if she likes the couch that much we can leave it." Whenever my mom and dad would go out for the night I would also panic and cry because they were gone.

With all that being said, I've learned that with change comes letting go of the negativity that has held me back.   

I love this quote because it shows that some of the best things come from change.
