I'm actually not sure why I'm writing this. So much has happened since my last entry on here, and I'm not sure what to write about now. Things seem.. Different. So much more different than they were 2 months ago. I know I should have kept writing, and been consistent with everything. Even now, I'm not exactly sure what I should write about. Things have changed so much since I last wrote; some good and some bad. Some things happened and some never even formed together.
I lost a best friend. Someone who I never wanted to lose. And now it seems like that person doesn't want to do anything but see me fail. We will refer to this person as "X". "X" doesn't want to be my friend but wants to see me fight for them. "X" wants me to fight for our friendship when they aren't. There isn't much I can say about it, as of now.
I started college. Oakland University. It's actually a great thing. I get to further my education and studies. I'm excited to learn and progress with everything. The atmosphere at OU is astounding. It's a learning atmosphere. Everyone there wants to learn, and wants to get their education. They all want to progress and become successful. Which makes complete sense, seeing as how students are paying money to learn there. Overall, my college experience is great so far.
My feelings have grown deeper. From the depths within me, I can feel my thoughts flow out into my arms and veins, into my hands; stopping right at my fingertips. The words won't form anymore. The feelings won't allow me to type. They wouldn't allow me to write what I feel, whether it be a pen or on these very keys that I bear my writing now. It's like, I can't get over the hump. I can't push myself over, and nobody can help me over either. I'm stuck.
"Turn a page, I'm a book half unread."
The phrase couldn't have been said better.
I'm not sure anymore. Not sure about various things. I guess I'm just stuck. I've heard it's normal. But so many different things are just so out of the ordinary, and life most definitely isn't the same. I guess it's what I should have expected. Change.
Until next time.

The reason you wrote this is because you showed that no matter how hard someone, "X", tried to make you fall you were strong, resilient, and you persevered through the struggles that you had to go through in that time of hardship. My favorite quote can characterize your situation. "Don't give up, don't ever give up."-Jimmy V. You never gave into the situation no matter how bad it was, you fought for what was right and deserve everything you have earned along the way. Freedom and a new sense of confidence I would have to say. Now your in college, surrounded by people who want to help you succeed and no one who wants to bring you down. You wrote this because it describes you, a strong, confident, charismatic, and successful young man,that I consider lucky to have as my best friend.
ReplyDeletei swear you take the words right out of my mouth. i came to you, and i asked you: what would you say if i told you that i wasnt going to write anymore? you said if i stop you stop. yes so many things have happened. and yes some for the bad. but those bad believe it or not will probably be your best pieces you have ever wrote. Now i know its hard jus to form a sentence, better yet a phrase. ive been there and done that so many times before. but it wil come to you. you may know how or even why but it will happen. eventually. my form hasnt quite came to me yet... i still become blank whenever i want to put it on paper. its in my head. i know how i feel... sometimes. but you my friend know how you feel. you may not know how to exactly explain it to other people... but you know. so dont second guess yourself. youll get there. you will get over that hump. iloveyou.
