I am a wordy person. I like words, and I use them a lot. Too much. Is it possible to overuse language? Where it may take someone a sentence, maybe two to describe something and get their point clearly across - I have to write paragraphs, go back and edit, add things, follow wandering thoughts, etc. I don’t know if that is necessarily a bad thing; it just is.
In the past that wordiness has made me feel like I’m inferior; like I couldn’t think things through well enough and just state them. No. Instead I pause every three words to think about a new though, or finish an unformed one. Ugh. I realize now that that is okay.
Maybe it makes me have a wider mind, more tolerant for different ideas. I find myself contradicting my own statements, and this may lead to even greater discoveries about myself. Hmm, anyways.
It’s hot out today. I ate a carton of raspberries, drove my car for the first time since graduation, and washed my car as well. For the first time. I haven’t talked to Nate yet. I wonder what he is doing. Maybe I will call him. :) Also I am debating on whether to call Brittany and seeing if she would like to do something. There is some potential funness. Oh yes, and I have been looking at Twilight clips from the movie as well. I am very excited for the movie! 12.12.08! =D
Maybe I will not get a job this summer and will simply eat cookies, excercise, camp, swim, and work on my book. That is not a bad idea. Except for the boost of confidence and the money I will be missing out on. Sigh.
I am planning on going on a roadtrip with two of my girl friends. Probably to Washington. We could visit Forks, the place where Twilight takes place. And visit other tourist attractions. Just us three goofing off together. It would be fun, and something to do before I leave for college. Before we all begin our real lives.
Well that’s enough of me. Hasta Manana! ~Elaine.
