Sophia-The past, present and future.

This year has been a bunch of small things that have turned out to be boom-in-your-face-changes and successes and failures. I didn’t ever think that last year changed me that much but it did. So did this year. I never noticed till after the fact but that’s pretty much how it always is with me. Some of my small successes were making new buddies. There are some lovely people going to Henry Clay and I have been kicking myself for not realizing that fully freshman year. I also managed to make cinnamon rolls for the first time ever. The kind with yeast-you do not understand my struggles with yeast and for once I won. It was amazing. I hate to say that I've had true failures because I try to be the lessons learned kinda gal. I guess my biggest failure is not keeping up with my friends from last year like I should. I'm sad about that. One lesson that I've known for a while but is continuing to slap me in the face and remind me of itself is that it’s the memories you make that matter and those are your biggest successes. This is real, I know because my name is Sophia and I'm wise. That's a lie. Its because I'm super duper lucky. I'm not sure if I’ve taken any real risks. I've taken trips not risks and that’s fine with me this year. As for mistakes there are many small things that dont even add up to a big thing. The only thing that I guess is close is this darn fundraising project, which I hate. At least I know now that I should never ever do this again. As for summer, I think I get to see my cousins from England and I am pumped.  I am also in the processes of using my persuasive skills to convince my mother to make a road trip out of her trip to Santa Fe and to let me go. Letting me go is the hard part but I am working hard on it and I think she is faltering. For the rest of high school and on I hope I can just remember my lesson learned and make fantabulous memories. Because to have them is the best thing ever.
