I’ve abandoned many things, and I have regretted letting them go. I make excuses. I tell myself that I don’t have time for such nonsense, yet here I am just doing it all over again. It’s quite preposterous to think that I just can’t stay away because it shouldn’t be that hard. It should be easy to stop myself from writing about bullshit that bothers me. I can tell myself that I don’t care. I can tell myself that I’m being a stupid, idiotic, senseless girl, but I can’t stop. Writing nonsense makes me feel better.
I’ve struggled with my priorities. It seems that I just can’t stop being lazy, and that has put a dent in my first semester of college. I know that I shouldn’t to be worried about it…at least not yet, but I can’t help but feel that I am failing my family. I’ve definitely struggled in college-in both the academic and social complexities that make up a college experience.
I’ve been lazy, and I’ve realized that I really hate people that spend their time gossiping-not that I liked them…I just didn’t notice them before. I mean imagine sharing a room with a gossip queen. Now that’s what I call extremely bad luck. Not only that, but people at my college love to party and drink…except that the parties at my college are pointless and stupid. I bothered with two parties last semester, and both of them were beyond lame. I didn’t even stay past midnight. That is how bad they were.
Maybe it’s also the fact that I am a city girl, and now I am living in a place where there are no shops that are worth spending time in. Yes, that sounds extremely bad, but I grew up near a mall. I grew up used to spending time in various stores-visiting them for hours a day, and now I am stuck in a small town that doesn’t offer anything to me. It’s like a complete ghost town. Not to mention that I practically moved from Texas to New York. Don’t get me wrong, I really truly love and appreciate both places. It’s just the people I have to interact in college with are pretty detestable. Of course there are a select few who are very much worth the time and effort.
Well, I’ve been strongly considering getting a transfer. I honestly don’t know if I will go through with it because it seems the school I applied to won’t give me as much aid as I had assumed. Well whatever happens happens. I hope things get better. I hope everyone enjoyed their holidays. I will soon be flying back to college. I hope this spring semester is much better than my fall semester.
Another thing that has been plaguing me lately has been my weight problem. I’ve been overweight for a while. I’ve been through some very angry and hurtful thoughts, and I’ve always tried to cope with them. Lately, it seems that even my mother has turned against me in this. Every time I eat something, she is there to reprimand me for my idiocy. She has been calling me fat, and lazy. She has been getting on to me about my weight, and I am honestly tired of it. I can’t help that I am a fat pig mother. Maybe if you tried to understand me more, then I wouldn’t be in this situation. What can I do to make you proud? It’s just been so hard these couple of months, and I expected my mom to let the weight issue drop. When I came home from college the first thing she said was that I looked fat. She even brought up the subject when my whole family came to visit. I’m so ashamed. I’m so lost on this issue. I’ve seriously tried so many times to lose weight, and when I talk to her about it it’s never enough. It’s like she wants me to stop eating. I’ve been feeling so conflicted on the subject, and I’m tired of it. I know that it’s very “cliche” to say that my new year’s resolution is to lose weight, but I will do it this time! I won’t stop until I am an average weight. I am going to do this the healthy way, and I won’t give up because I need to do this not only for myself but for my family.

No matter what you’ve been through, there is always someone that has been through something worse. They didn’t give up. They fought the odds.
