Miss independent Miss self-sufficient Miss keep your distance Miss unafraid Miss out of my way Miss don't let a man interfere, no Miss on her own Miss almost grown Miss never let a man help her off her throne So, by keeping her heart protected She'd never ever feel rejected Little miss apprehensive Said ooh, she fell in love - Kelly Clarkson I went to visit one of my best friends yesterday at Denison University. It's her first year there, and I can only imagine the amount of emotions that she was feeling the first day in a new place. But she's doing awesome- the university suits her, her classes sound awesome, and her roomies are really cool. It was so nice to see her. Kristen gives me so much hope, brings so much light back into my life that I think is always missing. She's taught me so much this summer, and made me realize so many things that I couldn't even begin to list. She told me that I had grown so much this summer, and especially since last summer. And I know I have, and in some ways I find it somewhat scary. Last summer was a free summer- one that made Abby and I grow together, and thus get closer. Without it, I don't think we would be as close as we are now. This summer, on the other hand, was about me. I guess I never realized the strength that I have inside of me, and the amount of heart that I do have. Sometimes it takes a best friend to realize that, and it took two last night to sit there and tell me everything I probably already knew, but was in denial about. I told them that I was scared for this fall because there are so many things going on, and I don't know how I'm going to deal with all of them. I feel like my life has been one big roller coaster this summer- I've met so many people, went through countless situations, and have had to deal with so many emotions. This fall is going to be different though. I feel like I'm going to be back into the swing of things with my life- I think one thing that I'm looking forward to is yearbook- it's going to be such a great experience and it's something that I feel was missing throughout my aimless wandering in college. It's the first quarter that I'm set on a major, and determined to get to where I want to go with it. The LSATs are coming up, the first time I'm going to be taking a test- one that scares me to death because it decides whether I get into my dream law school or not. It was amazing to hear another person's perspective on your own life, and in many ways it has helped me balance myself out, as crazy as that may sound. I feel so secure with myself right now- and how scary is that? I know who I am, I know who I want to be, and I'm determined to get myself there. Profession-wise, I've took a turn for the better. I've been researching positions as far as the entertainment business goes, and I think I would love to be an entertainment agent. I'm a one-on-one person, and everyone has been saying that it's right up my ally. When I talked to Holly's modeling agent, she even told me that it would be a perfect career. I even made a contact this weekend that could help boost me into the business- just the other route that I'm not too familiar with, but at the same time- it's a contact. Justin, a friend from New York, actually knows the second man in charge at IMG, the largest sports agency in the world. He said that he might be able to score me an internship if I visit NYC soon, much less a job once I have my law degree. I'm so thankful for everything that has happened in my life- the good and the bad. Without it, I wouldn't be sitting here feeling so strong, and feeling so good about life.
