the past

you know, it's good to go through all your old stuff sometimes. today, i was cleaning out drawers of papers, memories, and letters that i haven't touched since i was in 9th grade. oh yeah, it was crazy, all the memories that came back to me. past boyfriends, homework assignments, silly girly letters, pictures, even a no-cook cookbook that i've had since i was in 3rd grade. good times, good times.

some of those memories made me smile, some made me think really hard about the things i've gone through. it's been rough. i think we can all attest to that. it's kinda hard looking back at all those memories and wondering "what the heck was i thinking?!" ah, well. i've learned a lot, that much is true. and i'm determined to make things right the first time around (hopefully).
