It was the second “official” birthday party in a long time. All though middle school, it had been just me and Rachel. But this year, for my fifteenth birthday, I was determined to reclaim some sort of my childhood. Continue reading “[Day 162] The Way I See It”

Bri’s adventure to rediscover herself.
[Day 161] Before it gets any better…
Dear Tara,
Our brothers used to play baseball together, so we ended up passing the time together. Remember? I spend the night at your house and we watched Mary Kate and Ashley. Remember?
If you don’t remember that, then you probably don’t remember the event that I’m actually writing to you about. Or you might… because you’re sick and twisted. Continue reading “[Day 161] Before it gets any better…”

[Day 158] Camden (Is a Girl)
“…so much potential…â€
I rolled my eyes. I couldn’t believe they were already using that line on me.
“…Didn’t your parents teach you better than this?†I froze, glaring. “Camden?†I hated it when adults used my name like they knew me. Continue reading “[Day 158] Camden (Is a Girl)”
[Day 157] Did it hurt?
It’s often hard for me to calm myself down. When I get particularly upset or OCD about something, then I hyperventilate or have panic attacks, and it’s difficult to come back down to earth.
But today I realized that certain distractions are paramount to my mental health. My new favorite? Outlining the plot to Ash, that ridiculous novel I wrote in 7th grade. It distracts me nice and good, and makes me giggle. Win-win, eh?
[Day 156] In front of me
5 minutes, 10% incline, 2 mph
5 minutes, 2% incline, 3 mph
5 minutes, 1% incline, 2 mph
Repeat.
It doesn’t sound like much, but hopefully, it will be enough to lull me to sleep. And hopefully, it will be enough to keep me doing it more often. Because I don’t want to look like this anymore.
Go me for actually following through. Take THAT, internal critic.
[Day 155] Crap.
I had scheduled so many blogs that I FORGOT that I had to blog today. Oops.
I was about to shut off my computer and then I was like NO. BLOG. CRAP.
That is exactly my thought process.
Anyways.
I don’t feel like doing the regularly scheduled thing today.
Instead of telling you a story from my past, I’m going to tell you a story from my present.
I slept through the night for the past two days. I know that doesn’t sound like much, but TRUST ME. This is big.
Big.
I have not slept through the night for more than one night at a time every few weeks in like… a year. I don’t know when it started, but I know it has been a frickin while.
So here’s to hoping I sleep tonight, too!
(Unlikely. I’m jinxing it with this blog and I have a ton of crap to do tomorrow morning because I’m a procrastinating insomniac that cannot focus.)
(None of this makes sense. I’ve been watching too much LiveLavaLive. Blah)
(Goodnight.)
[Day 154] I’ll make sure no one takes it
Dear Rebecca,
Hey there. Remember me? Probably not. We were best friends in first grade. Kind of. Continue reading “[Day 154] I’ll make sure no one takes it”
