Dam of Potential "Sweg"

Yesterday I was told that I have a high frequency of potential swag(pronounced Sweg) . Apparently there is a dam over my swag, the Hoover Dam to be exact and I need to break it by punching Herbert Hoover in the face and make him sneeze. French class is fun huh?

Why is the Future Expected to be Better?

A few of my friends have mentioned that when they get older they will be glad they don't look the way they do now. Also the way they look now is a reason not to take pictures till they are drop dead beautiful ,and that they don't want to remember their teenage selves which is very sad. When they say this they mean the way their face looks and the shape of their body. They seem to limit themselves like they can't wear certain everyday things till their body is in the the perfect 20 year old shape and say that they can't make themselves look better till they are out of grade school. I find it strange to just wait for changes to happen instead of working for it in the present so that in the NEAR future you look better. Facially-wise as a teenager you will wish you still looked that way at 80 no matter how pimpled, pale, or strange it was ,so quit wasting your precious time being young and enjoy having the face you have now because who knows if it will get better or maybe worse which ruins your hopes and changes your mind about how you once looked.

Petty Problems: Saying Goodbye

This eagle is leaving it's nest.(me)

Unlike most of my friends from school I am actually going to miss middle school, also unlike everyone else I am leaving the 99.9% of my old classmates while they are all going to the same High School. On graduation day I was not actually realizing what was happening. This was the last day I might be able to see everyone. Now it makes me want to tear up a little ,but then my mind was still expecting a fun time playing games in computer class. I think it's the atmosphere I'm going to miss the most ,what I am actually glad to be leaving in the repulsive people there.Thank goodness I don't have to spend 4 years with those loons,but there are also friendships that could of turned into something beautiful but were cut from the stem too quick to blossom. The relief of going to a totally different school is one of most closest friends is joining me. Oh dear I hope high school is not too horrifying. -Alexa

Comparing My 10 Year old self to my 14 Year Old self

Lately I have thinking about all the things that I thought of or what I was going through when I was in the 4th grade and comparing them to now I think a lot of my opinions and my own appearance has changed a lot. Here are a list of thoughts I had and have now.

10 year old: Did not understand why girls liked shoes so much, didn't care for the beach, thought Victoria's Secret was weird and gross, no need for a purse, had narly teeth, wore headbands, afraid of being too old for my child stuff, wore weird clothes that I thought were cool, hated dresses, did not want have girl parts that you put in bras I really hated having to go through that in 4th grade, could never talk to strangers,or boys, never thought I would be able to kiss a boy, paleness, never could wear bikini's I was way too shy, just learned about gay people and people without religion in their life, did not go outside EVER, ate everything, frightened by bad words, chewed my nails, kind of looked like a rectangle, and just learned how to tie my shoes.

14 year old: Obsessed with shoes, wanting the beach quite often, thinks lace undergarments are beautiful, uses all kinds of purses, decent straight teeth, burns headbands, grown out of my child stuff, okay with my current silhouette, has to talk to strangers for other people, there is a chance I have kissed one,face is still pale ,but the rest has color to it (tan lines too), I don't think I look good in one pieces, likes going for walks and seeing clear skies, is conscious of what I put through my blood stream, doesn't curse ever, beforehand had braces so no more chewing my nails thank goodness, am currently an organic shape,just learned how to dress.
