i love "brand new day"by joshua radin.

ive been so busy lately.

im excited about the drawing class ill be taking at vcu starting next week.

im doing relatively okay in school.

im still figuring out the schools i want to apply to for fall 2011.

all i can think about is summer. it ended much too soon, and was the best one yet.

im having a really hard time deciding on colleges, mainly because, i cannot imagine leaving a few people. yes...most people im okay with leaving, but a few...i just cant. and its so hard to just try to push those thoughts out of my head, so that i can put myself and what i want first.

and then i start thinking....maybe its not such a terrible thing that i cant leave them....

late night. lots of thoughts.

g'night kids.

How you live is always going to matter more than how long you do.

identity theft.

i feel like my identity is constantly being stolen. well, maybe not the whole thing, just bits and pieces here and there. yeah, maybe that sounds hypocritical. true, everyone is affected by their surroundings. true, its hard to be a completely unique human being.... but i am never afraid to like/dislike something, no matter if its the "hottest" thing, or the "lamest". i wish people were just more confident in themselves, and i wish that they were more anxious to discover their true identity instead of try and mold themselves into someone elses identity.

i do what i want to do, i like what i want to like, i wear what i want to wear, i say what i want to say... i am me. tess. and i want to stay that way.
