Epiphany: I found myself, I know myself, I love myself.
It took this entire school year to figure out just who I was and what I really want to do with my life because my interests and talents are overwhelming; Do I really have to pick just one? Honestly, the idea of going to college to study just one thing seemed blatantly unfair if you put into perspective the amount of money my parents and I are spending for me to be here. Thousands of dollars to study just one thing? If I could, I'd study them all. International studies, African American studies, Liberal studies....Why not be an English major? A fashion major? Or what about a theater or music major? All this money and I have to pick just one? Yeah, that's the catch. I was often reluctant about telling people my major and it was from that moment of hesitancy that I realized I was in the wrong field. I should be able to shout my dreams to the world without shame or doubt because that's the only way I'll have a fighting chance to "make it." So, world...I love indie culture, I live to inspire, and I have a way with words. Journalism. There's so much more I'm doing at this very moment, but you'll just have to wait and see. :) Unfortunately, me not knowing myself caused me to lose love. You can't really know someone if you don't know yourself...It's like you're walking around living a lie and it feels good at the moment, but what happens when you do come to terms with the truth? The truth sets you free in so many ways, but the downside is the journey in your new life may leave things behind..Super-sad-face here. That's life. Never sleep, Never stop, and you'll forever succeed. That is all.
