Darren Criss and my future.

Before you jump to conclusions, I promise I'm not being a creepy fangirl who insists that Darren will marry me or something. I'm just watching a livestream of his concert in Chicago right now and he's very distracting when I'm trying to blog. That's why he makes it into the title.

Continuing on from earlier, it's weird. I feel at the moment that I'm at some kind of crossroads in my life. To say this summer has been lifechanging is an understatement. It doesn't seem like a big deal but I conquered so many fears this summer, from heights when I went on a high beams course with my college friends, to flying on my own across the atlantic and even surviving flying through a thunder/lightening storm on my way home (although this is definitely not something I would like to repeat. Ever.). When I hear about my friends all moving out and starting college, it reminds me of how scared I was about all of those things last year. Now, I haven't actually moved out but starting college was really scary for me. I was petrified. But so many things that have scared me, have turned out to become the most amazing opportunities. I guess I just feel that I don't have to be as scared anymore. I can do whatever I set my mind to, and that's an amazing feeling.

Now I don't know how many of you have been paying attention to the LeakyCon social networks in general but to me, it seems like they're hinting for something big. Whatever happens, I'm getting myself to America next year. It would just be even more amazing if I could do it with LeakyCon involved too. And I know I can move out next year and live in a different country. Yes, it's scary, but sometimes we all need to do things that scare us. They can turn out to be the best things we've ever done.

Until tomorrow,
Love,
Shauna

  1. I really need to take your outlook on it all to heart. I just moved out yesterday and I'm still really emotional about it, mostly because I'm so close to my parents, but at least I'll be close to them this whole year. Love and miss you!

  2. Madeleine's right. She's very close with her parents. I never have been attached to them like she has. I've always been ready for new places and adventures, taking things head-on, and wanting to figure things out for myself. So I guess that's how I deal with change....
