I write to you today from the desk of epic paper writing and glutenous treats. AKA I have a 15 page paper due on Saturday and am just starting, and I'm eating pizza. Yes, not as epic as I made it sound. Last night...or today...they all blend together, I spent some time looking through some of my old blogs, reading through one of the lowest points of my life. The greatest thing is seeing where I was as opposed to where I am now.
I have felt so free since I've been here, since the day I decided to put that all behind me. Though it wasn't as easy as I am making it sound, I did it. I want to experience life in a way that I haven't. I have always done things for other people, and though that is what I enjoy, I needed time to focus on me. I bungee jumped just to feel the adrenaline rush through my blood, and I separated from a group walking up a mountain, just so I could run and feel the wind against me. I wanted to get to the top first so I could enjoy the view in peace, to appreciate it with no distractions.
I ate what I wanted, not caring about how many calories were in it or how much I had already eaten that day. If something caught my eye, I ate it. Girls, we spend so much time missing out on things because we care too much about our image. In the end, the man we end up is going to love us for who we are, and the ones that reject you for how you look are not the kind you want anyways.
I walk down the street belting out songs with my friends, goofing off and talking with heavy lisps, and occasionally even dancing. I learned to let myself free, not care what random people I pass by will think. People will judge you no matter what you are doing and what you are wearing, so why be anything other than yourself?
Just a few things, I keep learning more than I expected and continue to change into the person I was made to be. So lets start over. I began this blog on a very low point where I had defined myself based on the person I was with. Here's to being an independent individual.
My name is Katie, and I am free. I have a loving family that means more to me than the world. My friends are top notch, as good as they come, and I love them as if they were family. I enjoy being completely ridiculous and sometimes a little obnoxious. I really love singing as loud as I can, even though I know I couldn't sing on key if the world depended on it. I love skittles. I trust God with my life, I know he has a plan and it is greater than anything I try to do on my own. I like to read, a lot. Sometimes I would even prefer reading a good book all day than doing anything else. Music is my main key to memory, I can hear a song and tell you an exact location of where I once heard that song. I love water, drinking it, swimming in it, all of it.
I could write and babble on for day but I suppose it would be wise to get back to my paper writing, seeing as I am on page 2 of 15. Love you guys and hope that my blogs actually mean something to at least one of you.
