You know, today I realized that my dad is not the worst out there. He might not always say the nicest things, or tell me how he feels about me all the time, but at least he cares about me. He cared enough to write me a note excusing me from my fitness gram tomorrow. He told all of his friends about how proud he was of me getting to play in Carnegie Hall. I shouldn’t complain so much.

How I did it: I got tickets for the show in my area and went last night. It was general admission, so I was really close. I cannot describe the feeling I had when they walked onto the stage. I'm pretty sure that the 4 years of my obsession reached the peak at that moment. They had so much energy and interacted great with the crowd. I am so glad I got to go, plus I'm even more in love with Billie Joe now ;) Read how I did it…
How I did it: I was diagonosed 3 years ago, and I just now got a spinal fusion surgery to correct my 45 degree curve from my scoliosis. It hurts so badly right now. I have rods and screws in my back. The thought of it is absolutely absurd. I know in the future it will benefit me, but right now it feels like hell. Read how I did it…
How I did it: When I went to New York, my mom and I went to Tiffany's in the city. It. Was. Incredible. I finally got the necklace I've been wanting for ages, and it has more sentimental value because I got it at the most famous location. I love it, but I'm only going to wear it on special occasions so I don't take it for granted. Read how I did it…

I’m really tired of being an angry person. Little things set me off, I’m always really jealous of other people, and I sometimes have just plain bitter thoughts about people I don’t like. Is this what you call teenage angst? I hope so. I hope I grow out of this phase. I’m sick of carrying this negative energy on my back. I hold grudges like crazy. Letting something go is nearly impossible for me. I can’t live my whole life like this.
The Vineyards is a beautiful place to get married at. I would know. I see it everyday. And when I wasn’t invited to go to that one wedding I cared about out of all the millions that take place there, I felt like I never have before. But now I want MY wedding to be there, whenever that may be, and mine will be even BETTER.
