Maybe someone reads this after all?

I'm going to level with you: lately, I've felt like no one really cares about what I blog about. I'm just another average, small town teenager with all the same drama as everyone else. My songs are lame, my poems don't rhyme, and my pictures look like Amateur Photography 101 assignments. That's what I've been feeling lately.

But tonight, I got a text from a friend I haven't talked to in a while, who encouraged me to keep writing. 'Your words inspire me', she said. Well, then I'd like to keep inspiring her. And even if she's the only one that ever reads this, it'll be worth it, to know that I've inspired even one person. I was touched and uplifted more than I have been in quite a while.

So. Where is Life taking me now? Well, I quit at Heartland about six weeks back. For several reasons, really. One, Heartland deserved a better waitress, with practice, and more than one shift a week to improve; and two, I deserve a job that I enjoy going to, and I wasn't getting that. So that leaves me with Shopper's, at 35 hours a week, and for now, I'm okay with that.

(But I'm thinking of applying at Warehouse One, because a) it would be a sweet gig, and b) the manager is sososososo cute. But shh, don't tell my wonderful boyfriend :P )

Otherwise, Grad season was busy. Six graduation ceremonies and eleven makeup appointments excluding my own for the three grads I escorted too. It was a great week. Exhausting - physically, emotionally, and mentally - but so much fun it should have been illegal ... Not that any of it was ;) And now when I go to a formal event, I have three more pretty dresses to choose from. Because what girl doesn't want pretty dresses?

Adrian's at camp this week, and that means basically no contact for the week. Not cool. I'll survive though. And it's Teen's Camp, which he looooves. He'll have an amazing weekend, so I can live :)

But my dad just brought me some ice cream - Bryer's Vanilla Bean Double Churned - and I have a feeling it'll feel egregiously delightful on my poor sore throat. I had a sore throat already and then I went and cheered excessively at a wrestling match last night ... Not smart. Ah well. All my favorites won :)

Going mini golfing tomorrow, so I'm off to bed. This is earlier than I've gone to bed in quite some time. Without having to work early, that is. Peace out all.
