Haven't posted in a while. I guess I've been meaning to. Just didn't.

School is starting soon. Orientation is the 18th, class starts the 24th. Basically, once the 18th hits, I'll be away from home finally. I'm kind of excited about leaving home, but honestly that's really the only part I'm excited about. I pretty much can't stand anything else.

I feel like I'm betraying people by going to college. No one wants me to go. Everyone's freaking out on me, and I'm scared enough as it is. I don't know what to do.

While I know it's just college, it's a different place filled with different people. It was not my place of choice. These really aren't people I find friendship in. I'll certainly try, and try hard, but over all, I'm more depressed and horrified about leaving than I am happy. And for some reason, no one can make me feel better about it. So I can't help but sit here I wish I could think of some way of getting out of this place and going to the college I actually want to be at, with people I get along with and a campus I already know, closer to my boyfriend where I don't have to worry about if he'll find someone better.

It all sounds totally self-depreciating and irrational, and here's the fun thing IT IS. I know it is, for a fact. I'll look back on this and probably laugh. But I didn't really want things to be this way. I had such a different plan in mind. It all seems so wrong to me.

Just a lot of things are going on and I don't feel in control in the least. My life was pretty much derailed and uprooted earlier this year and now that it's happening yet again, it feels like it's too much to take. Not to mention I've changed so much I hardly have an idea of who I am.

I'm just kind of sick of being strong for people when I don't feel like that at all. My friends are freaking out, my family, I don't know. It's so hard for me to be strong for them all. I can't guarantee anything. I can't guarantee that I won't change, or that I'll have time for them, or that I still need them like I needed them before. My parents are so afraid of me growing up and because they held on so tightly, I feel as though me growing up disappoints them. All they talk about is death anymore. Like now that I'm going to college, there's nothing else to do. How the hell am I supposed to handle all that? I want to break away, but I almost feel as though I can.

And I feel so weird, loving one person so completely not even six months ago, and suddenly loving this other person now. I feel wrong. Did I have time to move on, I don't know, I think so, but how am I supposed to know when my mind is totally clouded by everything else? He's perfect and amazing but I'd never, ever, ever want to give him anything less than my all, and that's all I've been giving, just because I'm so overwhelmed with things.

I don't really say it, but I'm kind of an utter mess. It seems like so much is against me all the time. I'm not going to give up, I'll never do that.

You can see why I haven't written anything since about March. I've been so preoccupied...I know I think too much, but that's gotten me pretty far, right?

I just wish I was more prepared for everything that was coming my way. In a sense I wish I could just unload everything I'm feeling on someone like I used to, but that's entirely selfish and I can't do that anymore. So it's new, dealing with everything I've internalized like this. I haven't really even begun unloading on here. Some things I want to keep to myself.

So basically: I'm a total wreck and I cannot wait until things get better. Because I know they will. I just wish they would right now.

you don't have to be strong for anyone ;3; be yourself and be honest


i promise i will visit you in collegelands whenever i can. not like i am doing anything better. let's make a club for people whose plans did not quite work out in a majestic manner. we will have oops-sleepovers until i'm at sva and you're at a place that is not bw.

KT take a deep breath. If you don't want to be strong for anyone don't be. Everyone is going through some tough times right now, everyone is scared to the point where we are peeing ourselves. If you need to change do it, why hold yourself back? This is a time where we find out who we need to be, who we are. Don't hold yourself back because you're afraid how other's are going to handle it, they shouldn't control your life, you should. It is yours. I'm sorry if this doesn't help at all. Hope a smile comes your way shortly.

I've been there and you are off to a better start then I ever was. You are doing the right thing, you are dealing. Be happy for yourself, ignore your parents and tell the ones who don't want you to go off to college to grow up. Yes it is sad but they will always be your friends and you will continue to talk to them. I am going to throw my 2 cents in here if you like it then listen if not tell me to shut up xD
6 months is plenty of time to move on, it is short but it is a lot of time to deal and think and move on. Here is something I learned a long time ago:
You will never stop loving your friends or ex's you just learn to live without them and become independent and then replace those feelings of love with someone who is better and more mature then the last.
So your feelings of uneasiness are not uncommon, they are natural. I remember a time when I thought I could love no one else but that one person, 8 months later I was ready to move on and started dating again, 3 years later his name does not bother me nor does the thoughts of the times we had. But the times when it did hurt and I felt uneasy dating someone again, it helps you move on.
I guess what I am trying to say is that, given time all wounds will heal and you will learn to love and trust yourself again and those around you, what you feel is to short of time may just be a way of saying "I am almost there, and soon these feelings will go away for good"
There is a lot of nonsense in all the crap I just said sorry about that.
To me it just sounds like you are hitting that time in your life, were you need to figure out who you are.

So basically,
Don't listen to us :3

I know we were never really that close as friends as, at least, I know I wanted to be (wow that sounded like a hit on >.< (and no it wasn't xD), but know I am happy for you, I want you to move on!
All of us, everyone, we will always be here for you!
*uberglompyhugthing*
I hope your days get better! Once college starts you will have so much fun.
And if you don't you can join Meg and I at CSU xD
:iconminisorceress:
Aww thank you so much Nick, that's really sweet of you. And no, it's not just silly jibberish and whatever else you called it. I really appreciate that you can relate and stuff. You always give good advice :D

I'm sure everything will get better. It already feels better. It just is a really weird transition.

Why haven't we become closer friends? I don't know how this didn't happen xD wtf! And I know! Yay! Visiting times!

Well there were a lot of outside factors, number one: drama both person and nonpersonal lol
