Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

It's been quite a few months since I've been on this site.. And I've noticed how dramatically I've changed. I've had to change my profile, signature, and even parts of my journal. I'm proud of myself. ; )
Ever since that England trip I've changed a bunch, and I'm starting to realize who I am.
Highschool is amazing. I've met a lot of new friends and hobbies. I joined the soccer team, which I love, and I'm thinking of joining the dance team next year, seeing as my old dance passion is starting to burn again.
I play the guitar and the piano. I recently quit the guitar because my teacher was starting to scare me, and because I was losing the passion, but now I've recently started the piano. I'm enjoying it a lot.

Unlike last year , I'm now a lot more social, OUTGOING , assertive , funnier/weirder ;D , and .. let's say a lot prettier. I've finally begun to care about my image more. Instead of constantly straightening (I still straighten sometimes. Once every week/2 weeks) my hair, I've begun to embrace my natural hair, which is wavy/curly. I'm also growing out my natural colour again, which I haven't seen in forever ! After that I'm probably going to dye the underneath of my hair , or put extensions in. I also have nice side bangs now. (: They're starting to bug me because I think they're a little toooo thick, so I'm going to cut it again soon.
I'm slowly starting to wear makeup. I'm more "natural". I only wear mascara and lipgloss to school. I'm still experimenting with the whole coverup , and eyeshadow techniques.
I still have to get a lot more clothes though. But that's more of a money issue.
I'm starting to accept my birthmark on my arm a little bit each day, but I'm still looking into treatments for it. I'm thinking of putting a skin-coloured tattoo on my arm to cover it up. By a professional who does those sorts of things of course (:

But of course , I have boy drama.
I like this guy who is a couple grades higher than mine , and the problem is that he now has a girlfriend . It's kind of saddening for me, but I guess it'll teach me that if I like someone I should make a move instead of doing nothing, aiight? Ahh well.. I've been trying to get over him for quite a while, but it's not working. ;/

Psssh, I also need a job . :[ I'm looking into dog walking , and in the Summer some sort of animal daycare . In the Summer I'm also looking into maybe volunteering at my local Vet. clinic, seeing as I want to be a vet. (: Maybe even working at Timmies/McDonalds with a couple of friends of mine because we're all old enough.

Blah! I cannot wait until the Summer. Me and my cousin (Who's sort of like my bestie haha) are going to Penticton for a while , and we may even be going across Canada. It will also be nice to be hanging out with my friends all the time. (: I'm really looking forward to swimming .. beaches .. mall ! , shyt like that.

I'm going to keep it somewhat short. Well. If you can even call this short LOL.
Whoever is reading this , I thank you for making it this far :]

Take care everyone !
