Today my dad and I tore out my ceiling, spackled the walls, and added new trim. My room has had the same walls, carpet, and ceiling since I was in first grade.
I can't help but notice the symbolism in the remodeling of my bedroom.
I'm changing almost everything about it, starting a new.
My life hasn't been too great lately; I really can't complain, but I know this isn't want I want.
I'm slowly becoming everything I didn't want, but I'm trying hard to change that.
I'm done chasing dreams and living in the past. I'm entering the real world now and starting to act more like a grown up. I'm reconnecting and patching some things up, and I hope it makes me feel better.
I'm trying to avoid a downward spiral and stay optimistic, but it's becoming increasingly difficult. I used to wish life was like a dramatic novel, full of passion, drama, and a happy ending. I'm realizing that life is more like a poorly written sitcom and I'm the butt of every joke.
This week things should start to turn around though. I'm changing my environment and hoping it helps lead to more change.
Wish me luck. =]
