Imperfect Happiness

Dear mom,

Time flies when you're desperate to survive, doesn't it? Or maybe it slows down in those moments in which survival is least needed. I can't say for sure which one it is, but I do know that today is the last first day of high school. Honestly, I'm surprised I lasted this long. Not necessarily academically or physically, but mentally. I haven't gone bonkers yet and for that, I am drinking a stranded coke I found in the fridge.

I think this year will be a good one. After all, nothing new happens senior year.

From, Elizabeth
