HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLOG!
27 August 2002 - 27 August 2006
Man, I've had this blog for 4 years now.. it's hard to believe. I was beginning my senior year in high school when I started this hizzy & now I'm beginning my senior year in college. This blog has recorded much of my life within the past four years... it's like a ummm... diar... no.. journal! I've been through soo much in the past few years. Clicking on random posts in my archives makes me remember what it was like to feel the past. Yikes! Hahaha, back then I thought I was all deep and stuff.. you know when you're in high school--- you feel like you already know what pain & joy there is to life.. so you get all melodramatic and you believe you're all profound in everything you say and think.. well I don't know if that was you but that was definitely me. That still is me sometimes.. but when I read back, I can't help but laugh at how hopeless I was. I realize now that I'm still young and there's still a whole life ahead of me.. a life I need to live by moving on.
So for this blog birthday, I'm going to make 2 predictions:
1) I predict that I'm going to know where my life is headed within the next two years; that I'm going to know what direction the Lord is pointing me and realize my vocation at least a little better.
2) I predict that within the next two years, this blog will die out. Eventually, I may just "mature" out of this or feel it to be unnecessary. Of course, I won't ever delete it.. I'll keep it around for the sake of saving the archived posts.. but I will probably stop writing in it for good.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLOG. You've been a good friend, uncafeaucafe.blogspot.com! And until you become but a memory of my past, I shall continue to post the thoughts of this "odd duck" with "plenty of time to pass."
