I think it was an essential part of my emotional and spiritual development to find someone I can confide in, and just as important, be someone that person can confide in. I’m not talking about just any old type of confiding. I’m talking about one-on-one, something-I-thought-I’d-never-tell-a-soul confiding. But it’s more than just one something, it’s everything about me. He is quite honestly the only person who knows the real me, understands me, and at the same time allows himself to be revealed to me, the only person that knows him. It truly is a great feeling, and it is only enhanced by the fact that we both love each other. :)

How I did it: It just took time, getting to know each other, and of course, the right person. He is my only true friend and I am lucky to have found him. I don't know if I will want to be kissing anyone else "new" any time soon. Read how I did it…
How I did it: While I do love creative writing, something just wasn't up to par about the class I took. Whether it was me being uninspired/unmotivated, being discouraged by others' critique, or something about the teacher, I am glad it is over. Maybe one day I will take another creative writing class, but until then, I will enjoy my time in other classes. Read how I did it…
How I did it: My sophomore year of high school was extremely eventful and extremely frightening. There was so much drama I definitely could have done without. But at the same time, there was a boatload of lessons I am glad I learned, and I also learned so much about myself and others. My Junior year is starting tomorrow and I hope it will be even better. Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
As part of the church season called Lent, my promise to myself was to not insult anyone (and that includes any put-down, joking or otherwise). I hope this will lead me to finding fun with my friends without joining in all the “fun” name-calling. While it has good intentions, I still feel that it is useless and reduces confidence levels that are far deserving of being sky-high. My friends are amazing and I know they don’t deserve to have insults hurled at them; I also know that I wouldn’t want them to do that to me.
This is another goal of mine which will be an ongoing process. I suppose I will keep adding entries of events in which I felt I was a better friend than I was at the start of this year. Back then I was so shy and reserved; even though I still am somewhat now, I have broken out of something. I don’t even know what.
Yesterday my friend (who is forever leaving her lunchbox at school) left her lunchbox again, so I took it with me to a showing of I.O.U.S.A. (great movie btw) in the auditorium down the hall. I texted her and made sure she knew I had it. She said “Thank you so much,” and I hope I helped in some way.
Now I just have to give it back to her XD
