Something amazing just occurred!

This does not start off so innocently...
I was ditching my fifth hour english final (it's alright, I'm going to take summer school) and went to my photography class. Inside, I became extremely bored and decided to Google my full name. The results were an extreme blast from the past.
Out came an essay written from a 14 year old me, complaining about how nobody took me seriously (check 12/08/03). As I was reading it, I came to the conclusion that NO WONDER NO ONE TOOK ME SERIOUSLY! I was a complete idiot. I still am, I admit it, but at least I am not pretentious and egotistical. I realized that I sounded like what I was, a whiny teenager.
Good news is that I'm still very concerned with current events and have kept with my activism. In light of current events, I am glad that I found an old essay I had written. Truthfully, it made me excited for what was to come in my future because I have certainly evolved in the span of merely two years.
