I will forever forget that people do change, and sometimes they change without you realizing it. One day you wake up and things are different. Change isn't always a bad thing, but unfortunately sometimes it is. Most people I know have changed. I haven't. I'm the same person I have been for years. I've gone through slight variations of Casey, but for the most part I haven't changed. I don't know why I haven't changed- maybe I had a strong sense of self from day 1. I don't let the music I listen to dictate who I am nor the culture that surrounds me.
It is so weird to be a teenager like me. It sure as hell is not easy. I find myself home many nights because I don't want to engage in what other people my age are doing. I know not doing that stuff definitely has helped me live a better life. I have control over myself 24/7. I am afforded many more opportunities because people trust me. At the same time, it sucks to be alone sometimes. It sucks to have to worry about what I do all the time. You'll never hear "sorry I was drunk" uttered from this mouth. That is never a valid excuse. (of course if you have an alcohol problem, there are exceptions). I hate being a teenager. I can't wait for the time that this phase in life doesn't matter. I can't wait to be able to tell my future kids that my wise decisions when I was there age made my life so much richer and worth living.... that is all for now.
