yearbook write-ups are due soon. i haven't even done mine or should i say...solicited write-ups on myself. but i did ask Ina to write mine since we've been friends since senior year high school. if you're wondering why it's only senior year we became friends... well, it's because i moved to a new school in senior year and i became friends with her and Aby. they were the two closest friends i had way back then.

this just came up. i figured if i were somebody else to write something on GAIL, i'd probably say this:

Gail may seem to be a complicated person but in reality, she isn't really. Or at least she thinks so. She's very shallow-- laughs easily on the corniest jokes and cries easily just the same. She's temperamental too and sensitive. Sometimes even oversensitive. But she oftentimes keeps it to herself-- whenever she's hurt. She chooses to bite her lip, close her eyes, then count to ten hoping that a bad situation would go away like a nightmare that's just a mere illusion. But she knows better. She chooses to confront it. Only, she doesn't really have that much courage to confront her fears. Sometimes instead of facing awkward situations, she chooses to hide in the shadows. But she's been through tests and she survived. She's strong. She just doesn't know it yet.

Gail is a believer of good things. People say that she hasn't seen the bad side of the world yet. Oh yes, she has. She just believes in good that much and although reality may sometimes prove otherwise, she strives to stay happy no matter how hard reality bites. A dreamer by nature, she believes that everything in the world is meant to be. She chooses to live in the present all the while worrying about the future and where she would go from here. But deep in her heart she knows that wherever this life will take her, she chooses to live a meaningful life, one that will hopefully touch as many souls as she possibly can.

Lastly, Gail needs to believe in herself. She needs to be reminded constantly that whatever decisions she will makein the future, she should believe in herself. Too many people believe in her and she has to be one of them.

Gail will always be THAT little girl at heart and no matter how scared she is STILL, she knows she will be just fine.

hay. now i'm off to bed.

xoxo,

Gail
