I hope that some day I’ll be able to lie down in the grass… somewhere, and gaze up at a night sky littered with hundreds of thousands of little glowing specs.
I’m nineteen years old, and I’ve never seen a star-filled sky.

Journaling regularly does not mean you have to journal every single day. People become discouraged when they start to set strict rules for themselves. I journal whenever I have free time, whenever I feel the need to purge my emotions or philosophize, whenever I have an interesting dream, or whenever there’s no one else to talk to. It’s fun to look back and read things you wrote X months or years ago and reflect on how much you’ve changed since then.
A complete waste of $100 that I will never get back. Perhaps because the limousine was not of top quality, perhaps because it was too cramped for the eight of us, perhaps because the ride was too short—whatever the case might have been, it’s definitely not something I’ll be doing again any time soon.
