Self-Esteem

I don’t think I’m ugly. I don’t think I’m pretty. I’m just sort of average. I have acne-prone skin that scars easily. I have glasses. My teeth are straight, but not as white as I’d like them to be. I’m short, and I have a really awkward body type. Normally, I have good self-esteem. I respect myself, and I try to see the good in myself. Nothing...

But, all I want, more than anything, is to leave. I want to grow up, so I can get out of this town, this house, this life. I want something different, and something different can’t come soon enough. Actually, it...

The Way I See It #7

College. Oh my goodness. I was accepted to my DREAM school, but it’s expensive. Not one of the most expensive in the nation, but it’s getting up there. Anyway. My sister is in college already. Her tuition is sort of expensive as well, but still less then mine would be. My parents more than likely won’t let me go to my dream school if my tuition exceeds hers. The school finaid...
