Positive Check-in 1

Every time I write something on here, it ends up being negative. So then later down the road I come back to look at my posts, and reflect on how I was doing a few months ago. But every time I come back to look at what I've said, I find that there's nothing good. Only depressing things that had happened that I forgot about since I have a bad memory, and then get upset about all over again. So I'd like to change it around to writing about good things in my life. Because I have a lot more lows than I do highs, so maybe if I write about the things that make me happy, when I reflect I can cheer myself up by seeing how good I have it.

I finally graduated this year, which I'm surprised about. Because I thought I was going to drop out like the last 3 generations of my family did. But I did it, with not a single issue and 3 cords. Major win for me, even though my grad was completely out of spite and the night was slightly hectic. I still managed to graduate with 400 other people in my school this year.

I just turned 18, which also surprised me. I didn't think I'd make it this far. I didn't think I'd make it to high school. Then again I feel like that's a common thought these days. Mellow dramatic most likely, but I finally did it. Bonus is, I get a tattoo fully covered as a gift which I'm very excited for. I'm thinking peony's for my grandfather who passed away.

I just went to stampede with a bunch of my friends. I was almost the first one to pass out from the intense heat, but I still had a great time there. I got to go on all the rides that I missed so much and I got to have all the greasy food that they have. It was fun doing that.
