"Life isn't about finding yourself; it's about creating yourself."

I don't know why I'm posting on blogspot really. As if I don't spend enough time on the internet and computer as it is with facebook, xanga, aim, and other random things. Actually now that I think about it, it's not even that I'm really addicted to my computer and internet, I just have nothing else better to do with my time. Every now and then though I'll find something slightly less boring than going to the same websites over and over again. Like yesterday for example. I cleaned my drawers underneath my bed for about an hour instead of going on the computer. In doing so I came across a bunch of my school work from 7th grade. That's right. 7th grade. Doesn't that seem like forever ago? That's like what, 12 years old? Sadly, my handwriting has only improved a little bit since then. It's legible at least, but messy. Anyways, in my effort to throw out some things I was looking through my notes to see if there was anything worth saving and I came across my 7th grade Reading class notebook. On a sidenote, really? Reading class? Did they really have to separate that from English? Ok well back to my main point, in this notebook there were a bunch of quotes that we had to write reflections for. I really like some of the quotes and so I kept it. the quote at the beginning of this is one of the quotes I found. I'd go into the reflection I wrote for it in 7th grade, but it's too stupid. I basically said the same thing over and over again for what I thought the quote meant. Then for how it applied to me...yeah...let's just say my writing has gotten much better at least. I ended every single reflection in that class with "That's how it applies to my life." Original. While throwing everything out, it came across my mind again how much trouble I have letting things go. Everytime I threw something out it felt like I was throwing away something important. Now that it's all thrown out though, it's not that bad. That's just old schoolwork though. It's not that bad or hard to let go. I know I've talked a little bit about how I hold onto things before and it's probably getting a little annoying to people. It's getting ridiculous at times for me too. I'm pretty pathetic sometimes. Most of the time. All the time. Let's go with sometimes. If it isn't worth it in the end...
