Remember those days when we used to write on xanga? Remember how we thought getting an "x" amount of eprops and comments dictated how cool we all were? Well, I just took a stroll down memory lane (my sad attempt to avoid my term paper. I made a small dent in it yesterday, only to discover today that I had to start from scratch. AGGHHH), and man, I was a consistent little blogger back in the day. I switched xangas so many times, but I always kept up with posts. I always had something to say, whether or not my posts were public or private. Reading through them, I could not help but laugh at how immature and silly I used to be. But then again, I don't know if I've changed all that much since those xanga days. I still may be somewhat immature and silly, but I've left my junior high and high school days behind with a hint of bitterness on the edges. It hasn't been that long since high school, but it feels like it's been awhile. I've learned a lot about myself in that time, and I'm glad I wrote down all those things I learned. Looking back on it now I think I've changed somewhat too. I'm not the bright-eyed, hopeful Christy I used to be. The me right now is slightly weathered, beaten down, discouraged and realistic. But there's still a hint of idealism that still twinkles in the my eyes. I think. I hope.
Anyway, here is what I pulled off one of my old posts. HAH. Brings back memories. Remember when we used to fill these out? Here's my updated 2008 version.
