Girl Meets World

It is funny and rather exciting to find yourself growing up with a band. I went to a Switchfoot concert last night, my fourth since I became a fan at eleven. More exciting about this experience was that I got to bring my boyfriend with. This felt like a new chapter starting in my life. I found a new traditions to have and it was a blast. The concert was seriously amazing. I felt myself loving Switchfoot even more. Relient K was phenomenal and Ruth just became a great obsession. There is so much to talk about I don't know where to start. I am tired and I will try to explain more later. I just know that with each song that passed I felt myself falling deeper into the music and into someone I think I have always been meant to be. The person that I was "Meant to Live." Looking over at the person next to me I found myself caring so much. I knew that I was falling and falling hard.


I was watching the series finale of Boy Meets World a few nights ago and it made me start thinking. There was something about watching this very last episode of a show that used to be my favorite as a girl. I remember watching and thinking that this kind of life seemed so far away until I had to make the decisions that Cory and the gang had to make. I began to realize that in less than a year that my time is up and the idea of facing this big new world scares me half to death. I want to take this fear and see it as a motivation though. A motivation to do good in the world (no not well although that is also important to me) do good by taking my passion in foods and desserts, making something of myself. I have a slight want to be famous and even if I never become a household name, I want to be famous to at least one person. I want to be someone everything. Cory and the gang are leaving the comfort they have known for a long time and now are facing a harsh ‘real world’. So I am writing today as a girl who is meeting her world. As a girl that is trying so hard not to be so intimidated by the world out there beyond school. I want to be and do great things; I want this passion in my heart to never die. I have been listening to Pat Monahan’s (the lead singer of Train) “Her Eyes” lately. It makes me believe that in my heart and in my eyes I am my own individual. I like that. I will never be something I don’t want to be. I won’t be one of those people that will change everything about themselves to impress people.

I hope to go to many more Switchfoot concerts in my lifetime. I can't wait and I want so badly to have that person to bring with me again. He made it more than just an amazing concert he made it a memorable event. Something I will never be able to forget, something I never want to forget.
