Hey everyone, as you can tell by reading the heading, it's my birthday today! So far my birthday weekend has been pretty great and I'm not complaining at all because of it. On Friday night, I had a friend's party, and then on Saturday, I had a family party. Growing can be difficult at times, to be honest, and I think that it's great that I'm finally realizing that. I turned 17 today, and it scares me so much already that I'll be 18 on this exact date next year. Just being honest, there are times where I don't wanna grow up but then again there are times where I do want to grow up if that makes sense. I'm ready to see what my future will be like next year and I'm ready for all of the very many obstacles that are going with growing up. I'm ready to see what college I finally decide on, I'm ready to see if I'm going out of the state, I'm so ready to be older in all.
At the times where I don't want to grow up, I'll remember all of the amazing memories that I've already created within my 17 years. I want to go back and change some of the choices I've made, but I can't and that's okay because I have my future ahead of me. In life we cannot live in our thoughts, and I honestly need to work on living within my thoughts. I make many choices in life based on what I think would be better or what would make me happier, and I no longer need to do that because that is not right at all. I need to put others before my life and my choices you know, do something that would make others happy and not only myself happy. This year, we're all growing up. We're all about to be juniors which are pretty huge if I do say so me. So we all be to start looking at our futures and not living within the past, this will not only make us happy but it will also make others happy as well.
Happy Birthday Emily! I am so glad you had a good birthday weekend. I am really upset I had to miss your party Friday, but I am super glad you had a good time. It seems so crazy that both of us are going to be 17 this year. We are getting so old. I am definitely not ready to be an adult next year. I think it's okay that you put yourself before others. At the end of the day, you should always put your happiness before others.
