One month until my birthday. I honestly can't believe that I'll be 15. Only one year until I can get my driver's license and date. Wo-ow, that's insane! It seems like just last year I was turning twelve and trying to figure out friend problems and how to deal with anything and everything. Now I'm nearly fifteen, and I've finally figured some things out for myself.
I have darn good friends. I'm amazed at how good they are to me. They're so kind, and I find myself just feeling so content with them. Last night we had an impromptu hangout at my friend Abby's house. Five of us came, and within 10 seconds of one girl walking in, we were all doubled over laughing. I had attempted to hide behind a pillar to scare Jess, but ended up crab-walking and tipping over. Then Jess threw a piece of licorice at Jakob's eye. They're the weirdest of weirdos, but oh I love them.
School is difficult, that's for sure. But I enjoy it! I like my teachers and the people that I get to see every day. The homework is a bit of a bother, but I don't really mind. Next year will be really hard, though. I'll be a Sophomore and going to high school. I think I'm ready for it, but I sure am nervous. What if I lose all of my friends? What if I fail my classes? What if the boy who I like hates me? I know it's just my anxiety acting up, but I can't help but worry.
There are always those days when I feel like everything goes awry. Overall, however, life is good. I have my momma and my daddy and good--though obnoxious-- siblings. I'm devoted to my religion and it brings me so much joy. Friends are usually good, school is the same old. The sun shines and the flowers are sprouting up.
Smile; life is good.
