Hey anyone who is actually reading this, lol. I always forget that this thing is here, but I'm glad that I keep randomly re-discovering it, I love looking back on what I wrote and what has happened to me over the years. Lol, for anyone that actually wants an up-date, here's one:

I am about to start my first year of college (or university, as you Brits call it) this fall at Wittenberg University. I'm planning on having a double major in Chinese and International Relations and learning as MANY languages as possible. My Senior year of high school was a CRAZY ride. SO many highs and lows. Highs would include getting to know my friends WAY better, actually having a license so I can actually hang out with my friends, Journalism, and all that great stuff. Lows... oh geeze. Ashley getting a stalker boyfriend who tried to suicide when they broke-up, then Ashley dating one of our friends and then that not working out at all and ending on bad terms (they worked it out, though), and me having the HUGEST crush on him before they got together and after they broke-up, and it taking for-frickin'-EVER to go away, and LOTS of friend drama. I used to never have any drama with anything and, even though my life was boring, I liked it that way. Now I realize how smart that was, lol.

At the moment I have 27 days until I start at Witt. Twenty-seven. That is crazy! I have been going to the same school ALL of my life, the same church all my life, living in the same house all my life, and then now suddenly it's all going to be SO different. And none of my friends are going to be there, which honestly isn't going to be as difficult for me as it will be for other people. I'm super used to leaving my friends and doing my own thing (especially during the summer) because they don't share the same interests as me, lol. At least at Wittenberg I'll have other people who can be obsessed with other languages/cultures with me :P I'm so excited and so scared at the same time. I'm not really worried if people will like me, I'm a pretty outgoing person and I can usually find someone (lol, that sounds so egotistical but it's true and I'm not making it a point of pride so meh), I'm just afraid that I won't be able to make the friends I WANT to make. I'm sure that doesn't make sense to anyone but me, but when I get to new places I usually become friends with shy people (no idea why. I'm super out-going so try and figure out how that happens, lol) and then they never want to do anything. Don't get me wrong, a lot of my really good friends are quite shy and I love them, I just need to find a mix of outgoing friends so I don't feel like I'm always the one that has to initiate everything. Well, whatever, lol. I'm sure I sound super stuck-up but I'm not trying to be and this isn't for you, it's for me. So there :P

Anyway, I'm going to go get some mint chocolate chip ice cream and watch Soylent Green now, so I'll see y'all later :)
