since then.&amp;nbsp; The whole idea is still pretty new to me and I still have
a lot to learn.&amp;nbsp; For many of my friends from high school, they'll
remember this time as their last summer before they graduate in
spring.&amp;nbsp; But for me, it's the summer that I'll look back to as the time
that I began to open my eyes to a new feeling, and one step closer to
completing ME.&amp;nbsp; It may not be a significant time for many, but whenever
May and summer '06 come to mind,&amp;nbsp; I'll always remember...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The
revelation, the accomplishment, it was a situation far from my usual
comfort zone.&amp;nbsp; A new perception of the world opened up to me, but I've
never felt so lost.&amp;nbsp; A lot of confusion and denial, it definitely
wasn't something I was used to.&amp;nbsp; What I assumed was what I had always
believed, but what I felt, was what I had always been running from.&amp;nbsp;
Losing a part of me but gaining more options.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And one year
later, I'd like to believe that I've come a long way since then.&amp;nbsp; Fully
accepting who I am and thankful for the support from my friends.&amp;nbsp; I'm
not afraid of who I really am, but rather, if everyone else accepts me.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Anyways,
this is it.&amp;nbsp; My final summer before I graduate and finish up college by
the end of this year.&amp;nbsp; Another lasting summer, another handful of
memories to create.&amp;nbsp; And yes I'm finally going to try to make it
happen, I'm going SKYDIVING ! !&amp;nbsp; One less thing to cross off my list of
things to do =)&amp;nbsp; Anyway, I gotta make the most of this summer.&amp;nbsp; And
congrats to the class of 2007.&lt;/font&gt; </description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/xsakurax/593045891/ill-always-remember.html#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Fall Rush '06</title><link>http://www.xanga.com/xsakurax/524868711/fall-rush-06.html</link><guid>http://www.xanga.com/xsakurax/524868711/fall-rush-06.html</guid><pubDate>Fri, 01 Sep 2006 00:33:46 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photo.xanga.com/xsakurax/1642975476877/photo.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://x16.xanga.com/429d030255c3775476877/z50987066.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; float: none; width: 443px; height: 293px;" alt="Rush06"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  </description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/xsakurax/524868711/fall-rush-06.html#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Monday, March 06, 2006</title><link>http://www.xanga.com/xsakurax/453559288/item.html</link><guid>http://www.xanga.com/xsakurax/453559288/item.html</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Mar 2006 11:13:12 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Every year, half a million babies in the U.S. are born prematurely.

you the rest of the story when I cross...shooot

&lt;br&gt;To my Big Bailey, thanks for everything! You were so caring and
understanding, and you were always there for me, even during the times
when I doubted myself, you still believed in me. Thanks for your
support after all this time. Hehe, yes we def need to keep the Filipina

things cuz life is all about drama. i needed sum1 to talk to, sum1 to
vent out to, just sum1 to listen to me about the probz i had. the only
ppl i can find cud only b contacted by phone. one by one, i called
those ppl that i can rely on, and one by one, i only got their
voicemails, or no answer at all.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i still sat on that bench alone. but now, with no phone to talk
into,&amp;nbsp;as i started to realize then, its not gonna b the same, they
wont always b around, which i learned at that moment, when still i
cudnt find ne1 to talk to, no1 to giv me a shout. who can i turn to,
who can hear me out, i still havent found ne1 of that sort, or just
sum1 to call a friend. i pulled my knees close to my&amp;nbsp;chin as it
grew colder,&amp;nbsp;as i felt&amp;nbsp;a tear&amp;nbsp;trickle&amp;nbsp;down my
cheeks. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i still feel alone in this place for i have no1 to run to. i
thought&amp;nbsp;about my friends&amp;nbsp;who i talked to recently who keep
tellin me, "jen, i wanna go back home, i wanna leave this place n never
come back. i just hate the work and problems are starting to rack" i
guess at that moment, i felt the same. i didnt wanna come back here,
and i definately wanted to flee. away from my problems and away from
this unfamiliar place.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;then i thought again, "what am i doing?&amp;nbsp;what am i thinkin?" i
cudnt run away from this place, i cudnt just leave my problems, i wud
just b considered weak. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;those that have told me they wanted to leave,&amp;nbsp;i told them
all&amp;nbsp;the same. "dont think like that. u gotta b strong. u cant
runaway from those problems, and u cant leave that place. as hard as it
sounds, u just gotta suck it up and just do what u really gotta do and
what needs to be. think optimistically and i promise u,&amp;nbsp;things
will get better." &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;who am i to give advice when i dont follow them myself? i took a
deep breath and at that moment i just thought, things&amp;nbsp;really were
gettin better for me, and i gotta follow my words. i didnt wanna run
away at that moment and i started to think, im def not alone. i may not
have friends here&amp;nbsp;yet, but i still have ppl that i&amp;nbsp;can talk
to. it still is something, and it is a good start. i still have so much
to look forward to, and i cudnt give it up yet. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i still got those clubs im in, (FSA, YFC, radio crew) and a certain
group of girls that give off a positive aura that i believe that they
wud b there to support me, even if things dont work out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;then it didnt seem so bad anymore sitting on the bench alone. i felt
a lil better, but i still had to deal with those problems that bothered
me. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i got up from that bench and started to walk. where u may ask?
upstairs into the lounge with ppl that i can talk to, ppl that actually
cheer me up and even make me laugh. i didnt feel so miserable anymore,
for i knew i definately wasnt alone. i walked into that lounge and saw
one by one, as some of those ppl i talked to, looked up at me, smiled
and even said hi.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i guess its not so bad, when i thought about it, college was getting better and i knew, everything will b fine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and for those that still believe, that things will never get better,
try to realize that things really will b fine. every1 has a rough
start, but then it will eventually&amp;nbsp;become a smooth ride. well
maybe not all a smooth ride, cuz there will always b bumps.&lt;/p&gt;</description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/xsakurax/34848871/item.html#firstcomment</comments></item></channel></rss>
