woah what a time

hey guys!

can’t believe my last post was two years ago. i was at a really bad place then, just an overall bad year. there were plenty of good memories. i solidified my friendship with my friend emma white, ily so much. i became close to chrissy then stopped because i didn’t like the people around her so stopped being close to her. fake bitch move.😔🙊

also eighth grade really changed my mentality, for the better or worse, i guess i never know. and also my baby brother was born! i love him so much now but that was a time of stress, insecurity, and loneliness. i decided to change that going into high school. i know. shits crazy. i reconnected with my friends greer and grace, and even taryn because that was my og squad in seventh grade. first half of freshman year was pretty light and happy for me. i got closer to greer, like besties close. and my mental health improved a bunch. second half was alright/fun. i just goofed around with my friends. even poked some guys butthole. now its my sophomore year. it started off bad but turned amazing and now its going back down. i will try my absolute best to make this year the bomb before junior year. even if its not legal ;) ill will TRY to write twice a week but we’ll see how that goes 👀🙈 you clown

xoxo fat bitch
