Take a walk - Passion Pit

Dear readers,
There is a lot i must explain to you since it has been 2 months since i last posted. Life has been a little crazy, with a couple drops of normalcy.
1.the first thing i must tell you is that i am single. as of a week ago. sudden i know. I KNOW. but I'm  perfectly happy in my single state. next.
2. EFY changed my life. I'm not just saying that, I mean i literally had a whole paradigm shift. I really understand who Christ is. I am working to improve the minimal relationship i have had with him. I have learned that i need to rely on Christ and trust in him instead of pushing any kind of help away. We can't progress in this life alone. This is why we have families, friends, spouses, roommates  etc. We were never meant to be hermits.which is why I'm working on being a person who accepts all and doesn't blow anything out of proportion. its hard.
3. Senioritis has set in and it is KILLING ME. I just want to be done. I want senior year to be over. I'm sick of the kids who try to be cool. if everyone would just realize that we all are different and equal in our own way, the world would be a better place. Our country was founded on equality not on cliques.
4. I am applying to college. Its stressing me out. Any of you older and wiser people can leave tips for me anytime.
5. I am in special needs seminary! it is the best thing that i could have been asked to be put in. Those kids, are really the choicest spirits of heavenly father. I have such love for them. I can't explain it, but they have equally as much love for me as anyone else. It is really the most amazing thing that i get to experience.

Basically my life is a complicated busy mess. I'm slowly trying to bridle it in. Its a work in progress.as you can see,

Signing off for now,
