Today marks a special occasion. I started my 12th journal today! (Also, my dad and stepmom have been married for 5 years. Happy Anniversary!)
You read that right: 12. I have been writing in a journal since I was eight. However, it took me over a year to write my second entry. But, I have become more avid in my writing over the years.
I just wanted to say that I am glad that I have kept a lot of journals. I have been able to read about how I have overcome troubles. I have read about lots of stupid mistakes and realized that I can change. I have written about how my faith has increased which helps in time of doubt. I have also written lots of negative feelings which has been a blessing because it keeps me from saying them to others and hurting them. I have been able to use my journal to think through problems. I have been able to write down my adventures. I have had a lot of adventures. (This blog has a great history of some of them--mostly from my mission.)
And lastly, I think I am hilarious. (It's a good thing because I have to live with myself forever.) I write stupid stuff that cracks me up. I am so weird that it is impossible for me not to laugh when I am reading some of the things that I have written. This also includes all of my dreams. I dream almost every night and remember them. I like to write my dreams in my journal. Some of them are just weird. But, it's great for telling stories.
I know; my 12th journal is awesome. My sister said it was "high class." Oh yeah. Let's just say I have an interesting assortment of journals. Never leave me alone in the journal aisles of stores.
