Dear Diary,

I remember being a little girl and thinking of all the things I would be one day. A doctor, an artist, an engineer, and a princess. Sure, these are the things we think of when were kids, but have these dreams or ideas ever actually come true for anyone? Yeah, the princess dream is out of the question now, but do I still want to be a doctor or an engineer? Will I ever truly get my chance to do anything? Sometimes, it can be difficult for me to think of the truth of my life, the sad reality of what my outcome will be. I know that there's a 50/50 chance of me following in my mother's footsteps. Dad is trying to be optimistic about it, but I have a really bad feeling brewing deep in the pit of my stomach. The truth is I don't want to start something that I know will end in sorrow. 

The same goes for my relationship with Carter; he will only be hurt by the end of this. I have no way of knowing when it will begin, if it ever does. I try to keep my relationships close but not close enough that they will be broken when it happens. I can't bear to write the words down for what's to come. It breaks my spirit to even think about it, so I'm going to keep going on as if its not there. I have to stay positive no matter how I feel, and I have to keep trying because maybe a few of my dreams will come true.
