TAKE THAT ANXIETY!

I am no longer in high school! Today was my last day and I finished. Maybe not with flying colors, but I finished. Now, I have to go change my biography on Amazon, Goodreads, etc.

Starting in the fall, I will be a college student. :D

I'm not walking the stage or anything like that. I'm paying 25 dollars for my diploma and that's it.

I am so proud of myself. Last year, I never thought I would make it to this point, but here I am. TAKE THAT ANXIETY!

Dear anxiety,
You almost had me. You were so close to making me a high school dropout who didn't care whether or not I got my diploma. Well, you failed. Thanks to medication, the homebound program, my Momma, and my therapist, I can officially say that I beat you. 


Not once.


Not twice.


But quite a few damn times over the course of a year. You will never win again. Bring all you got because I'm going to physically attend college in the fall and there is no way in hell that you will beat me. 


Make me sick to my stomach. Make me cry. Make me feel like a total failure.


I'll look back on this moment and remember that I can beat you and that I did. Never again will you control my life like you have in the past. Your time has run out. 


With no love,
Lindsay

Wow.

I'm still in shocked.

Momma is taking me out to dinner tonight. Tomorrow, I'm going to get a massage and finish packing and by Sunday evening, I will be in NY! What a graduation present to me, for me, by me.

Thanks for reading. I just wanted to share my major accomplishment with you all.

Goals are good for the soul

If you are friends with me on Facebook, then you know that I've created a goal for the summer. I love setting goals, whether I meet them or not.

What is my goal, you ask?

Why, thanks for asking! My goal is to write three books this summer. My ending date will be August 25, as that is when regular school starts here.

I'm hoping to finish book four of the Bold As Love series, Don't Panic, and TSP3 (because we don't have a title for it yet.) There's my three books.

Now, it's not as much of a challenge as if I were starting fresh. Therefore, I'm going to start a book today and have it finished by August 25. I have no idea what it will be, so I better get thinking!

Do you set goals? Would you like to share? How often to you complete these goals?

A Thursday Tune

All of the tunes from the playlist are now all in one place on YouTube. Here is this week's tune.

You may be wondering how in the world this song fits into the Bold As Love playlist I have. Here's how:

"Made me hard to handle
Lovin' me might be a long shot gamble"
