{a little post to let you know where the h*** i have been }
i've been watching the ice melt under my feet.
(literally.)
i've been eating cookies
 |
| (and cupcakes) |
i've been enjoying the little eccentricities of the city
i've been happy that spring has arrived
i've been indulging my shopping urges
 |
| check out those glasses! |
most of all though, i've been working. a lot.
i've almost gotten so bogged down in the hum-drum no-stop pace of it all that i've forgotten where i've been, why i'm here, where i came from.
sometimes i find myself getting so wrapped up in all of this stuff.
Top 10 Colleges and SAT scores and History papers and test dates,
and all of a sudden it becomes
really easy to just forget who that girl is who is sitting and
holding the pencil (with her left hand, by the way- but more on that later) because i become
so focused on the outcome or the product or the grade.
sometimes its good to get a reminder of who i am. why i'm doing all of this, rather than just going on autopilot with the hope that i can get it all done (w/ flying colors)
and hope that the rest of my life will wait.
well, it wont.
i need to be a person. not just pieces of a person.
not just a test grade, or a vocabulary word.
a person. a whole being. me.
this blog is part of that.
i'm back.
sorry for the absence. i promise i'm here to stay.
it's easy to lose yourself if you don't remind yourself who you are, why you're here.
i've learned that at least.
as for all that SAT junk...now that's a different story.
xo, Rose
have you ever gotten so caught up in something that you've lost yourself?
how did you get 'you' back?
