As we go on, we remember ...

It's been a while since I've updated, unfortunately. I've beens uper busy with school winding down and all the obligatory events that come with graduating from high school. I had a pretty amazing final theatre banquet (each year they just get better and better!), went to my first and final prom (underwhelming), won a new Canon Powershot Digital Camera at Project Celebration (thanks Nick and Baylor!), practiced my Texas Hold'em Skills, met the famous TV actor Ben Mackenzie (inspiring experience!), finished my senior scrapbook. attended a banquet other than my own as a date for the first time (Choir with Busby!), finally opened my own checking/savings account (I have a World Wildlife Fund Wolf portrait on my debit card!), and ordered my brand new MacBook Pro (completely decked out and upgraded!).

This senior year ...

I've recieved some really beautiful compliments. I've learned the importance of balance and practiced its execution in a way I've never been capable of doing before. I've developped a better sense of self-confidence, and a renewed belief that I will achieve all of my extremely large dreams. I've dealt with rejection and disappointment. I've learned new things about myself. I've cultivated a love and appreciation for poetry. I am super excited about my future.

I know this entry was too vague and too unorganized, but now that school is over I hope to take the time ON MY NEW MACBOOK PRO to elaborate on all the amazing things I've just sort of brushed over in these past few entries. I'm looking forward to a summer of relaxation, making money, spending time with friends, travelling, and improving myself and my skills. I want to put my best self forward when I move to Austin in less than three months.
