Thankful

While I was planning on lazing about and spending my five day weekend doing relatively nothing, which I enjoy thoroughly,  I need to do some work in order to honor this holiday season of Thanksgiving, the wonderful reason why I have this long weekend. Though the things I’m really thankful for are the wonderful elements of my casual lifestyle, a warm home, good food, and loving family, but what I really need to be thankful for (in this entry at least), is my friends at school who I see almost every day, specifically my friends in Mr. McCarthy’s Seventh Period American Literature class.

                Now I can assure you that I love everyone in that class equally, they’re all fabulous people who I can talk about in every way for pages upon pages, but I’d rather not do that. So I’ll focus on just one them, Holly Situ. Holly, you are a strange, sad little woman. Trust me, I will talk about how you’re cool, but need to get that fact straight first. With that being said, you’re also a spectacularly entertaining person. No matter what the situation, you always seem to make me laugh or at least mildly amused. Just for that, I’d say that you’re worth thanking. Hope you and everyone else has a happy holiday weekend.

I Celebrate Myself

            When asked to define my identity, I often have trouble answering. So talking about how I celebrate that same identity that I myself don’t understand that well would seem pretty difficult. So to do so, I guess that I’ll have to define myself first.
            I see myself as a dreamer with high ambitions, but I can’t really say that I have any real talents or activities to do. I often find myself in my room thinking about what to do with my life, and end up spending quite a bit of time lying around doing nothing. From that alone, it’s hard to come up with something that I do to celebrate that person, the lazy good for nothing. But I notice that that boy changes quite a bit when he goes to school and spends time with his friends. I realize that care a lot for them, and can think of quite a good number of times where I’ve really done what I can to help them for the best. Such a contrasting character from my own norm has lead me to find something that I can proudly say that I celebrate about myself. That thing is spending my time with my friends and the people I care about. I can say this because I feel like I’m really doing something when I’m spending time with them. I’m achieving something when their by my side, and I think that that thing can be described as my own sense of self.
