Hi Sophie! I know it's been a very long time since we last talked, but for some reason you popped into my mind and I just had to check in to see how you were doing. I miss you!
As for me, I can safely and confidently say I'm actually doing really really well. I've grown a lot closer to my friends and that's been literally amazing actually. I guess I'm not any less of a people's person than I was before, despite being criticized for it. I don't mind either way. I love the people I have around me, and as long as they don't suddenly disappear I should be good :)
Alsoooo, on an even higher note, I may or may not have somehow found my way into dating someone...??? It's honestly such a blur but I'm completely ecstatic about it. I've known him for a long time, we're really close, and we've certainly joked about dating before but this is wayyy different than that. I honestly still don't know how I managed to do it, but I'm genuinely so happy. He's so sweet. Sometimes slightly questionable at times, of course, but so so sweet. He's like family to me at this point. Though I'd probably say that about a lot of people.
Anyway, I think I'm rambling again.. that's a special talent of mine :D
But I just wanted to check in, update you, and see how you were. Hope you're doing okay <3

@Soph1e_s4urus3 Hiii :D I completely agree that the job I have is literally like my dream occupation! I only have 2 more weeks left before it ends and I'm honestly really going to miss it. But after that I'll be starting my last year of high school! I know our schooling works differently, but you'll have to let me know if you have any interesting classes! to be completely honest though I'm going to miss school once it's over. I do wish my parents had let me figure out some things on my own. Even if it was just being able to say goodbye to him instead of disappearing :,) I still kind of wish I knew what happened, but I have 4+ years of memories with him, and that's going to have to be enough (even though I know we could've made plenty more). At this point I'm kind of just letting life figure out its own path. I went to a summer camp for a week (major mood boost) and met some new friends there, so I'm in yet another group chat :,) we'll see if my mom disapproves of this one too. I'm sure she will, but.. such is life. I'm choosing to enjoy things while they last. But girl... I can't believe you dislocated your knee twice!! That sounds scary. Somehow I've still managed to have zero health issues (except for multiple examples of stitches in my face... both are long stories but not what I would consider real injuries :D ) Keep me updated too! I'm always interested to hear what's going on, and I'm glad to hear you're doing okay! <3

@JustAnydayReader Hello again :D. That camp job genuinely sounds like it was made for you, I’ve always predicted you working with children one day one way or another. HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY! I’m sorry that your birthday wasn’t as great as you were hoping it would be, that’s really unfortunate :( if it helps in any way, mine kinda sucked too :,) I’m so sorry about your situation with the guy, especially if he really cared. I feel like your parents should’ve let you figure it out for yourself, if I’m completely honest. You’re already 18 (if I’m not mistaken?) and experiencing stuff like that, even getting your heart broken by a guy, is a part of growing up. But I’m glad you’re able to handle it and I’m happy that camp has been helping! Life has been kinda messy for me too, just some health (I dislocated my knee twice over the past year :,)) and mental health issues, nothing too crazy. I‘m starting my second last school year soon, I might have to lock in. I also have a friend who has been kinda affecting me because he has BPD but it’s nothing I can’t handle. Keep me updated, appreciate you <3

@Soph1e_s4urus3 Heyyyy! Update, I got my first job! I'm working as a summer camp counselor now, and it's been really amazing, actually. I'm the youngest on the team, so that definitely leads to some joking, but I really, really enjoy spending time with the kids. I also celebrated my birthday yesterday! It wasn't nearly as good of a day as I'd hoped since life's been a little messy lately, but it's still a pretty cool milestone. Ahhh... as for why life's been messy... I kind of forgot to mention that the guy I ended up dating definitely wasn't someone my parents approved of. They found out I was still talking to him after they'd specifically asked me not to, so I've now been forced to block him. I never even got to say goodbye, which honestly has been one of the hardest parts. Even after I disappeared for a month, he never stopped checking in on me, so I know he cared. For a while I was hoping I might eventually convince my parents to get to know him a little better, and my mom was willing at first, but then some really serious things happened involving people in that friend group (someone ended up in the hospital...), and after that my parents decided they couldn't support me talking to any of them anymore. So... that's kind of where things are now. It's been really sad, but I'm trying to focus on the people who are still here and the things that are going well. Camp has honestly helped a lot. It's like an escape for me. ANYWAYYY, enough of my rambling. Give me another few months and I'm sure I'll be fine again. I'm sorry school's been so stressful! Keep me updated too!!
