Cat ears, lolita's, cosplayers, and finals, a lot has happened since I last posted.
I'm just about to start finals. I'm screwed.
I looked up lolita and decided I want to make a skirt. Not necessarily a lolita skirt, just a skirt.
next halloween I'm doing something with the cat ears I got and a lolita-ish something.
So much has happened this year. I've grown so much. I've met people that have changed who I am. At the beginning of the year I was so different.
I guess we all grow over time. It's kind of sad. I don't really want to grow up, yet here I am ending my freshman year. Next year I'll be a sophomore. The year after that, an upperclassmen. I'll be expected to be stressing out about college and my future, be responsible, be an adult.
I don't understand why girls my age and younger than me try so hard to look and act older than they are.
I watched Peter Pan the other day and I think I can relate to Wendy a lot. I don't want to grow up. I'd much rather be telling stories and dressing up as pirates and dreaming about flying than worry about school and what I'm going to do with my life.
But unlike Wendy, I know what I'm going to do with my life. I'm going to make art. Make art to make people happy. The smile people have when they see the t-shirt they're getting is a thousand times better than the ten dollars they pay me for it. It makes me happier than any amount of money could.
I'm a dreamer. I know that. All I want to do with my life is be happy. Tell stories with words and pictures, put a smile on someone's face.
And most of all, what I wish I could stop the most, is the way children want to grow up so fast. Because the quicker you grow up the less time you have being truly happy.
And being happy, and making people happy, is all I want to do.
