Real Talk

Elizabeth Grant was the reason I could say it all. I needed this class, but now I need to tie up a few loose ends.

To the tourists- I hope one day you find Paris, but really, I hope you find yourself.

To the hopeful- Thank you. Your posts kept me going.

To the not-so-hopeful- There was so much comfort in knowing I wasn't alone.  

To the real- You inspired me the most.

To Nelson- Thank you for showing me how to have a balance between happy and sad even though I didn't do the best job, it was something I needed to learn. Thank you for commenting and believing in us. Thank you for sharing Paris. 

• If you really knew me you'd know jokes make me very very happy. 
• If you really knew me you'd know I've kissed 15 people but haven't kissed in four months next week. (silent cheers)
• If you really knew me you'd know I have clinical depression.
• If you really knew me you'd know I don't want to fall in love, but someday I hope I do.
• If you really knew me you'd know I care a little too much about money and wish I didn't.
• If you really knew me you'd know Buffets scare the hell out of me.
• If you really knew me you'd know I don't swear but I enjoy saying Hell in big crowds.
• If you really knew me you'd know I love Miley Cyrus (you're cringing it's okay).
• If you really knew me you'd know hugs and making new friends are my absolute favorite.
