Okay, so a daily blog assignment has turned into a weekly paragraph IF I am feeling like an over-achiever. I realize this is not good therefore I am going to do everything I can to become a better student and a more entertaining blogger to stalk. I must warn you though.. It's about to get deep.. Ready, Set, GO!
Today, I have taken a 1000 pound weight off of my shoulders and I have allowed myself to start fresh. Starting today, I am no longer that girl that was weighed down by the negative things that surrounded me. I'm not letting myself worry about things that are only as important as the newest episode of Jersey Shore.. ACTUALLY, I retract that statement because I adore Jersey Shore buuuut the point is that I am finally going to start living my life for me. I've realized I've based so many of my actions in the past few years on what I know the people around me want to see and as hard as it may be---I'm trying this new thing called I.DO.NOT.CARE. I've just realized I want so much more than is offered within the city limits of good ole' Athens, Georgia. I want to reach out to people and make a difference in the world. Yes, that sounded like a gag-worthy answer to a Miss America question but I really and sincerely want to know what it feels like to affect something more than the bar sales of Downtown Athens. I want to make friends with people that have bigger goals and deeper values, guys that understand being a creep isn't instilled in your DNA and a place within myself where I can be completely at peace with the real me. I may have a katrillion little flaws written all over me but I also know I have a lot to offer and damn it... I plan on doing so.
love this malia!! and freakin miss you.
