40. My Sisters
So, I haven't blogged in ages, and I'm sorry but I just need to let things out right now.
I want to say that I have some of the most amazing friends ever.
Seriously. I don't know what I would do without them.
I know that even years from now, I will still be able to call them up to chat and chill with them.
They are my sisters and I love them so much.
This year has definitely been a rough one.
So many changes have taken place this year, some that have made me cry, scream and shout, but so many have resulted in unending laughter and tears streaming down our face [oh. and stronger abs. haha].
And for each change, my friends have been there for me. To listen to my tantrums and whines and also to cheer me up and make me feel better.
They are the people that I cherish.
They are the ones that teach me lessons that will definitely live longer than they will ever know.
I've had so many revelations occur because of them.
And I'm so glad that I have them to lean on and learn from.
I just can't wait for next year, our final year together in high school.
I can feel the bittersweetness mounting already and senior year hasn't even started yet! CRAZY.
But I know that we'll have tons of laughter and jokes and memories created in the next 11 months.
I love you sisters. You guys are the best.

39. Youth in Sacks
I was walking towards my next next class, looking around, seeing all these different faces passing me by [and you should know, I LOVE to people watch (: haha]. And as I'm walking along, I notice, not only kids my age, but also the teachers.
Have you ever taken the time to look and observe older people? Y'know..adults: moms, dads, grandparents, the old lady on the corner, the senior couple living in a finely decorated home, or even teachers at school? It's interesting 'cause you find out that they are just like us.
And by us, I mean like kids, teenagers, youth!
I mean, they WERE like us a couple years back...well..maybe 20-30 years back [haha]. They had friends, they went out, they partied, they made out with their boyfriends/girlfriends, they did rebellish things. They were just like us...or are we just like them?
Well, I got to thinking. And really, these adults that we don't normally like to associate ourselves with are just Version 3.5 of us. If you look carefully, they are just kids in adult bodies. Surround them with friends and they talked animatedly, waving their hands around, slipping in a few inside jokes, saying the most outrageous things that only friends could say to one another. I think it's fascinating how these versions of youth are a person's personality, just in a different body.
It's as if their personalities were just schlooooop!, plopped into different bodies. And these bodies are only temporary. They may be experiencing a few wrinkles here and there, some splotches of cellulite, and dark circles under their eyes, but in a couple years, they'll be Version 4 and have just a little bit more of those. Yet, they'd still have their personalities.
As I pondered upon this thought as I was walking from Pre-Cal to Orchestra, I thought: I really hope my personality doesn't change. I don't mind how my body may morph, how I will look like when I'm Esther Version 3.5 or 6.5, but all I want is for me to be the same person. I want to stay bubbly, confident, passionate for God, striving to do more and more, kind, thoughtful, and etc. All that I am (:
And I conclude by saying that we are all rumply sacks filled with our youth and that's how it's gonna be.
