young age, bye

When you're growing up, and especially when you're shy, you often find ways to stay in the background and follow what others are doing, when with lots of people.  And whenever you linger or look shy or confused you can just blame it on being young.  And you get used to it in any social situation, and no matter what you do, you think people will look at it as something you did because you're young and silly.  But at some point, you realize that you've grown up, and people around you, peers and not peers, see you as a person, not just a little girl.  So when you do something, it defines you, and not your age.

This Summer!

This might be my first blog, that will actually sound like every day life. I was extremely excited to see the new blogger design options the last time I logged on. It took me forever and I still couldn't decide on something I liked. Obviously I had just woken up and was still in bed while doing this, so eventually I had to get up and go and settle on something that seemed like it wouldn't at least ruin my blog. But the next time I got on there, oh god, it was perfect, it is perfect. It's green and beautiful, and has so much happiness in it. I wish I was one of those people who didn't care about the interface, but I do, I love it when internet looks nice and cheerful.

Well anyways, so now that I actually updated the design, I guess I should also update the blog. I'm not going to write about everything that is going on in my life, because that would just be one big mess. But I do want to say that I am happy because there are things in my life that are so beautiful, that I know that I cannot be sad while they are there.

I am also going to Italy soon, very soon. And I haven't been excited yet, but today there was something that made me think, "Hm, I guess I am excited." Don't remember what it was though. Well let's see. I might be living in Piazza Navona, a few minutes away from the Pantheon. New sights, new people, new thoughts, new things to add to my life. My goal and decision is to spend every second doing something. As much as I saw in Spain, there were so many days and weekends when I could have done something else. So now, when I am only in Rome for a month, I am planning to travel and visit as many places as possible.

And after Rome, I will be on the road for about 2 weeks. The most recent idea is to make to Paris, by bus, a few days in a city here and there. I am excited about seeing France, as well as just more Northern Europe in general. And then I will go back home to Russia, and spend the remaining time of summer break with my closest friends, and all the other wonderful things that make up homeland. So there's my summer plan.

And also, Happy Father's Day, to all the amazing men and father's in the world!
