La la la aaaaaaaaaa...

So that's the end of the Cape sunsets for me. I'm on Martha's Vineyard now and time is creeping by as slowly as a turtle crawling uphill. I'll be leaving for New Jersey either this Saturday or Sunday and picking up my car then. I can't believe I'll be driving again after two months of not being able to. I'm really excited but scared at the same time. Will I have forgotten how to drive? I don't think so but I guess we'll see.

Also, during these two and a half months, I've almost forgotten completely how to be a girl. I just realised that I haven't worn makeup, brushed my hair or put on a dress at all during the summer. I haven't worn HEELS even once and I certainly haven't hung out with any girls my age. Pick any day of the week now and you'll most certainly catch me wearing an oversized T-shirt and shorts or oversized sweats. Oh and I haven't worn perfume or jewellery (except my cross necklace) all this time either.

Speaking of jewellery, my body finally rejected the belly ring that I had forced upon it this January. I took it out of its misery yesterday and all that's left of my piercing is an ugly scar. I guess this'll teach me a good lesson in piercing myself on impulse!

I guess I'm excited to go back to being a girl again. Can't wait to walk in heels again...

Besides that, nothing's new with me really. I didn't finish reading all the books that I set out to read this summer but I gained several new ones. I've also gathered valuable knowledge on various aspects of life such as child-rearing, house management, socialising and just American culture in general- so I'd say that I got a pretty sweet deal.

Another summer has gone by and I've become yet a different person again... I guess it's time to say goodbye to the teenage me and hello to the new creature that I've become.

The other day I read this quote that said "from the very day we were born, we all take steps towards death everyday".

How depressing and how motivational at the same time!

Makes me want to put on a baby pink skirt and go play tennis or something...

Weird.
