Who am I?

Since recently turning 20, I look back on my younger years and can't help but be proud of the woman I have grown into. I have become especially grateful that I was such an avid journal keeper so I am able to see the progression I have made throughout the years as I look back on those pages. Let's just say, I've made a lot--a ridiculous amount--an embarrassingly huge amount of progression. I think.

Here are a few experts to give you an idea and I'll let you be the judge.

After Tyson dumped me I knew I had to get him back. So bryan asked her boyfriend to pretend to be my boyfriend. So I told corey brown (a girl) that the minute tyson dumped me spencer asked me out and I said yes! Corey was running all over telling people! lol! She was like, can I tell tyson? And I was like you mine as well! So it worked like a charm! And when she told him he was like NO! NO! and stormed out of the lunch room and me and spenser we totally cheesing it. And Tyson looks so PEOD and he was so jelouse! So then I "dumped" spencer and told Corey so she could spread it!

I am so happy for once a boy actually likes me, today a kid came up to me and goes I like you. . . I always knew he liked me.

I just have to keep reading that last journal entry and reassure myself that people did like me in my younger years--or at least they did in my delusional state of being. And now I will have to re-enter that state if I have any chance at believing any of you will still like me after reading these journal entries.

XoXo. Write more tomorrow.
Loves.
