Today is June 29th 2013. Fifteen years ago today I made the world a little brighter, a little happier. Well not really but id like to think so. I'm sitting in my mothers car in the back seat on the passenger side. My legs are crossed with a book in my lap. I have a seatbelt on. An oddity for me. I never wear a seatbelt. But I guess it would be weird if I unbuckled now, although it's very restraining. My parents and I are going out to eat for my birthday. I live in a town of 1000 people, so we have to drive over an hour to get to any decent restaurants. The sky looks odd. I can't ever remember it raining on my birthday before. I know there was a tornado the day I was born. But that's all the weather activity on record that I recall. If it rains i might cry. If it rains there had better be a rainbow. It's sunny where we came from, but the clouds are darker where we're headed. Glad I wore jeans today. Southern Illinois weather is seriously the worst. It can get below zero in the winter. It snowed a foot and a half over my spring break this year in April. It sucked. My mom was on spring break before me, and it was beautiful outside. Last summer it rained one day all of July. My birthday last year it was 107 degrees. Today it's 80. Sometimes my personality is like southern Illinois weather. I change. I'm pretty quiet most of the time. I'm not around my friends, of course. But at school I'm the girl who sits somewhere in the middle of the classroom who rarely raises her hand. I make good grades though. Teachers like me. Except my PE teacher. And my drivers ed teacher. Who happens to be the same jolly man in his mi 60s. He sings to us while we play dodgeball in PE and while I attempt to parallel park. My life is pretty simple. Simple house. Simple appearance. Simple personality. But I figure I'd write it down and share with you anyway.
