this morning #1567.
this morning, on the walk back from the woods to homeroom, i started thinking about new beginnings. got that cheesy ass song in my head. the one from the beginning of high school musical. “start of something new” on a loop. it’s not that the content of that song has anything at all to do with my current moment. it’s all in the title. maybe the high school aspect too but mostly the title. i was more than ready to press restart on my life. put the shame of what our cousins did to us behind me. they’re asshats anyhow. not worth my energy. by the time the day was over, i’d made a decision. dad wasn’t worth my energy either. i decided i’d get home, take one last look at his letters & then burn them in the furnace.
