I was 14 when I started this blog. It seems like forever ago, probably because it was. I was only a freshman, I never thought I'd keep this blog for long. A lot can happen in two years, a lot can change. And a lot did happen, and a lot changed. IF you had told me two years ago that from 2011 to 2013 I would travel to Australia, New York, DC, Paris twice, and Italy all in two years, I probably wouldn't have believed you.
I started this blog as a follower. I dressed the way others dressed because that was the thing to do. I wore almost exclusively J.Crew. I listened to music that was overplayed. I started this blog two years ago and somehow, between then and now, created the person that I am today.
I can't believe it's 2013, I can't believe I'm a junior, I can't believe I'm going to college in a year and a half. All of these things are so hard to believe, but they're happening. It doesn't feel like I'm going to be seventeen in 4 months, I feel like I should still be a freshman figuring out the ropes of high school. It's strange being this age because you realize that you are the person you looked up to as a child, you're the "big kid now". And that scares me, it really does. But with the fear comes a certain sense of excitement.
And I'm ready to take it on.
After all, teenagers are invincible right?

17!!! It's been a pleasure reading your blog for the past two years. You really have grown up a lot! We all have. But I totally remember when you really did wear exclusively j.crew haha. You little cutie, you! <3
Also, I wish I could have traveled to all those places, too... jealous.
I also started my blog when I was 14.. I just love this post! It's so similar to my own feelings.
wow.. that's amazing! time flies so fast, eh?
happy blog bday!
Click me for my NEW BLOG
LOVE THIS!!! I'm a little jealous that you've traveled so much but wow, that's awesome! I totally started my blog at a time in my life when I was having trouble being myself and I always wanted to be someone else. Now, I find that through blogging, I am able to do something none of my friends do. I express myself through words and photographs. I know who I am now. I've never really thought about that until I read this post. Love it! Thanks for sharing!
