Tory's been thinking again, this can't be good
In art we've started talking about our self-portraits, and somehw it's started me thinking about how I used to be. I look back on my life and realize how much of a loser, whiner, and crybaby I was in my early years. Like a tortured artist. I remember the time I made a fuss and I ended up running around the classroom in my underwear (1st grade), and the time I wet my pants in art horizons (2nd grade?). I also remember how much I liked to make things, stories, anything. I liked to draw, I liked to make up little scenes with my toys, I liked to work with clay and modeling. I also remember how when I found something I liked, I dove headirst into it, and acted obsessed. Some of these things haven't changed; I draw and obsess over what I like (anime, Pocky, my boyfriend, things like that). I'm also still a bit emotionally unstable. I lose my temper and break down crying a lot. (I wasn't going to mention this, but I also still have that lazy streak that makes me procrastinate until the last possible moment, i.e. often lunshtime on the day it's due, etc.)
But I've grown up so much. I was totally unsocial and shy before, and now I'm not afraid to say hi and make friends. Even at the beginning of the summer I was very self-conscious and worried about what others thought of me all the time. Now, after meeting people online who are a lot like me or don't judge by weirdness, I feel so much more confident and crazy. It's like I fell into another world where I'm suddenly accepted, and meeting people like you is something I never thought could happen to me. Now I'm closer to all my friends, and I'm learning to cope with troubling emotions. It's all thanks to you, so feel proud. If there was some way to thank you, I would do it. ...Wait...
POCKY FOR EVERYONE! *whips out dozens of boxes of Pocky and tosses them everywhere*
Hey, it works for everyone else, why shouldn't I try it?
(I've been feeling very sentimental today as I have been amazingly awake enough to sort out my thoughts. In case you were wondering about the friendship stuff and all, y'know. I also think you're all past-due for a thank-you for supporting me in little ways, so don't just think I'm turning into Anzu with her rants. I promise it won't happen again.)
