I used to cry almost every day – sometimes two or three times a day. I didn’t understand what was wrong with me; I would break down over the smallest thing that happened to me. In the end, it turned out that I was actually suffering from a major form of depression, and have been on medication for nearly two months now. I’ve only cried once since then, and that was only because I was in a situation that meritted it. I’m glad after so many years that I was finally able to solve this problem.

I recently started watching a lot of tutorials and online lessons…I’m still a little too shy to take actual lessons, but i might try them once I start to feel a little more comfortable with what I’m able to do.
I’ve been going through a whole wardrobe upheaval since the start of the school year. Every month or so I’ll go shopping and buy a few really nice things, and in turn get rid of some things that I’m not very proud of owning (haha). Anyways, I’ve been starting to get compliments when I wear these new things. I’m hoping by the end of the summer that I can finally say that I “dress well”. I have a hard time determining what looks good, so I’ve started paying really close attention to people whose fashion sense I admire, and then going out to try and buy similar things.
