This summer, in 2 ex-colonies, 1 republic, and 1 forest:

I have gotten over teenage angst and myself. There is more substance to the world than I ever thought there was.

I didn't shower for 4 days.

I cut my hair short and straightened it.

I held a boy's hand and enjoyed it.

I slept in a bed full of ants.

I slept in a bed full of moths.

I danced until I felt like dying from happiness.

I stopped smoking pot and discovered the delicious flavor of cocktails.

I lost my digital camera, moped for a month, and got over myself once again.

I took a plane by myself.

I entered a casino legally.

I realized that I did not need to work this hard - for boys, for academics, for worrying over mundane issues in my daily life.

I decided I needed counseling.

I gained 5, no 6, actually 7 pounds... so far.

I ate the best chocolate cake in the world, called Ivory, ironically.

I hiked 12 miles to the top of a mountain.

I got food poisoning from raw tuna in a Japanese restaurant.

I got a palm reading in the darkness of a bus.

I still don't think I'm ready for college, but I am, but I'm not, and there's no point to even pondering it because its inevitable, but I'm sort of stuck in this middle place where I recognize all of the flaws in my thought and I know every refutation for each declaration I try to make to forge myself on with life. So maybe I'm not over teenage angst. I am just exhausted and ready to accept what new comes before me. Thank you for listening.
