So this is my first blog post! I've been thinking of starting a blog for a while. I used to have a Live Journal in high school, but for some reason I just stopped writing in it during the summer after my sophomore year at UF. I don't know why I stopped writing. One day last month, I remembered that I had a LJ and was able to recall my user name and password. For the next 4 hours, I read every entry I wrote starting with my first one from April 2nd 2004. Reading some of the entries I wrote when I was in high school made me laugh, cry, blush, and feel ashamed. In high school, I was self-absorbed, boy-crazy, and tried so had to be someone I wasn't in the hopes of getting people to like me.
Athough some of the posts made me aware of how much I've changed as a person, most of them had me reminising about the golden days of high school and how much a miss them. I miss the close friendships, the possibility of starting a new future, and the fun. Reading about high school makes me regret how I've wasted the last four years of my life. I've done nothing in college. I have no amazing memories like the ones I had in high school. Now with everyone leaving Gainesville and starting their new lives, I'm left with regrets and missed opportunities.
Man, it's like I'm going through a quarter-life crisis!
I hope that by writing this blog, I can leave something for my future self to read and remember what it was like as a 20-something on the verge of starting a future.
