Last night I spent the evening with two of the most down to earth chickas on the planet. All I can say about the entire evening is CHEERS TO GOOD FRIENDS. I find it exhausting and stressful.. frustrating beyond belief to see how much people hide their true selves from the world in high school. High school, yes what a generalization...

I want to take pride in my passions and find people who support and share them with me. I want to be goofy and obnoxious without being talked about. I want to blog without being judged and critiqued.
