11 MONTHS. :)

What is the difference between selfishness and mental health? Where is the line between caring about yourself, and not caring about others?

Love yourself so that you may love others.
Then no one can ever call you selfish.
But love yourself.
So that you can truly understand love.


(p.s. laziness and lack of muse makes handling two blogs absurd. i'm one person. take it or leave it. shuttin' down the other blog and posting everything here.)

PROM WAS THIS WEEKEND.
:) it was too wicked for words.
Sometimes i love being a girl. For example. It allows you to occasionally dress up your hair and skin, put on flowing fabric and pose for pictures. Okay, not a big fan of the last one when parents are involved, but who can resist a good myspace shot with people you know? :)
Prom, Afterprom and Cedar Point. Won't ever forget them.

i've been having a strange revelation. All my life i've been considered old for my age. Part of that was probably coming from being an only child and dealing with adults and older cousins all my life. When i was in grade school i felt like a teenager. When i was in middle school i felt like a teenager. Now i feel like a teenager, only older. But weirdly enough, now i don't know what i feel like. Suddenly i'm finding people younger than me who i relate to better than people who are older than me. Have i just stopped maturing? Am i latching onto younger people because i don't want to move on to college? Or is this a sign that i should be spending the rest of my life working with teenagers, like i've been wondering for awhile now? i wonder if as every year passes by, the youth are forced to grow up more quicker and quicker. Why is it i feel like i can have a deeper intellectual conversation with a 16 or 17 year old then a lot of 20 year olds? Is it me, or is it culture?
Hmm. That seems to be a very popular question.
