Summer Nights

Hello :) It's been sometime since I've written, but at least I'm not as bad as Maggie and Amy, haha!

Firstly, thank you Jenna for showing me your essay.  I have always liked your writing style (you know that) and getting tips from people who have experienced things is always nice.

So summer has been pretty great so far, but I think this is the fastest that summer has ever gone.  Tomorrow I'm heading to Connecticut and then Monday I am visiting Wesleyan College in Connecticut and Amherst College in Mass.  Other than that I am keeping busy with babysitting and soccer and all of that fun stuff.  Soon I'll be visiting Stonehill College in Mass, Emmanuel College in Mass, and Brown in Rhode Island.  Shea is going to be busy!

As Jenna has stated, you girls must be getting excited for college!  Personally, I think the best part will be decorating your dorms!  You get a fresh new start, and you'll meet some incredible people.  Thankfully we have this blog to keep each other posted about our lives until we can all see each other again!

Sincerely,

Shea

my college essay

oh and shea i was thinking, since i said ur essay should be personal im posting mine to kinda give u an idea, plus i did want to share it with all of you, mmk
xoxxo
here it is....




“You can either run from it, or learn from it…Oh yes the past can hurt.” ~Rafiki
My biological mother led a turbulent life of partying and all that goes with it. In the eight years I lived with her she was in and out of rehab four times.
When my mother “went out” she left us with a baby sitter. It was the same person for a while, until my mom said that she and that person were not longer on friendly terms. Her friendships with people didn’t last more than a few months, some a couple of years; but, mostly they lost touch or things ended for one reason or another. The men also came and went in a similar fashion. I didn’t think much of it then, because, well I was little. Thinking back as a teenager I realize that scares me.
Her relationships with people in and outside of her family were affected by her psychological problems. Among them; Bi-polar, ADD, ADHD, addictive personality, addiction to substances. I am so afraid of being like her, in her faults. I will never touch drugs, because I’ve seen first hand how they can ruin your life.
I know that I have an addictive personality myself, but I get addicted to things like horses, reading, writing, hanging out with friends, learning new things, etc. I’ve turned her biggest fault into my biggest strength. I am also very paranoid about losing the people that are closest to me, because I do not want to be someone that has different people in her life, year in and year out. I don’t want to have a new best friend or boyfriend every few months. I’ve become goal oriented, I want to be a successful, happy person. Someone who actually wants to go to her job everyday. I have a passion for living and learning that I know my mom never had. I plan to live life to it’s fullest and remember it.
I tend to put up a wall with 98% of people I meet. I do not get overly emotional about most things, because during my child hood I was taught that to cry is a weakness. I am not weak. I have become more mentally tough in dealing with things because of this. At the same time I have a hard time expressing my feelings to other people, because I do not want to be vulnerable.
Your past affects you everyday. We all have regrets, things we can not change. It’s not really the past that makes you who you are; it’s the way you handle the past and mold your present. My mother’s mistakes are not my own. I am my own person with my own mistakes to make. I will take those weaknesses and make them my strengths.
My past will not define who I am. “You can either run from it, or learn from it.” I, am learning.


XOXOXO

hey so like no one is using the BOOK!!!! lol
shea im glad you had a great trip and birthday. And you did ask for advice so here it is:

>Don't be afraid to take a chance and risk everything for what you want and what you believe in
>Don't be afraid to fall in love, and if you do fall in love don't hold back, you may fall flat on you face(heart) but when you look back on it it WILL be worth it
>Do your best in school and choose a college because YOU want to go there, not because anyone else wants you to go there, but also be open to others opinions and don't trash a school (ahem UMO) because ur rents went there or because its a state college, lol
>When writing your college essay write something original but something that actually means a lot to you, make it personal, its the college's way of getting to know you before they meet you, or finding out something they may not find out in an interview.
>Be a role model, to the young the old and the inbetween, i know your one of mine
>Laugh a lot, it keeps you young
>Love many trust few
>Be you, i think ur pretty amazing as it is...
XOXOXOX

Catching up

Hello ladies!  I haven't posted in a great while and a TON has happened since!

Firstly, the cruise was a blast and we met so many cool people. We (meaning my friends Abbie, Katherine and myself) met two guys who live just north of us who just graduated high school. They were really cool and fun to hang out with. We also met a guy who works for obama (I almost died of excitement) and a family who loves near my relatives. There was so much to do and so many cool shows (comedy, magic, dancing singing, talent) to name a few and we were always swimming and lounging in the hot tub. At night, we would dance under the stars and it was all so perfect.

Bermuda was fantastic. All of the houses were painted pastel colors and everyone drove a moped. We got from place to place on pink buses that drove very fast and crazy, and I got a shirt that said I survived the buses! The first day we swam at snorkel cove, and the next day we drove around the islands and explored the crystal caves. The last day we went to the shops and Rachel, the adults and I went to Horse Shoe bay where the water was warm and green and there were cliffs in the ocean! The people were so nice and I got to sit next to some locals on the bus.

Also, my seventeenth birthday was on Thursday!  I really can't believe it!  I know you've all experienced 17 years, so an advice?  My parents and I went to Boston for the day (as is tradition) and I went to the museum of science.  Yes, I am a geek, I know, I know.   We took the train and went out to dinner afterwards.  When I came home I got an iPod touch, a new camera, and some other little things!

Oh, I also have a job now.  I babysit for 4 kids three times a week.  I know it may not seem like a real job but it's a lot of work and I get paid really well (no taxes),

I'm going on colleges visits soon... I really can't believe this!

Ok, I have written enough!

Sincerely,

Shea
