Just to Describe ME

Hey everyone!

Wow, this is the first time I've ever created a blog. I'm completely new to this, but I feel like this will help me get better at what I really love to do, which is writing.
I've been thinking a lot about college and what I want to do with my future. I thought that I loved to run, and maybe I do, just not competitively. It's just too much for me right now, with pressure to be the number one distance runner on the team. I'm 99% positive I'm going to stop doing track and cross country this coming year. I'll finish off the indoor season, but I just don't feel the same way about running as I used to. There's no more thrill to start and finish a race. I have no motivation. For the past 2 or 3 years, I've been thinking that running was going to be the only way I'd get into college, but now, after weeks of thinking, I've come to realize that it isn't. And, to be honest, I really do NOT want to run for an extra 4 years during college. I want to focus on music and writing, two things that really define who I am as a person.
I was talking to my mom today about college and my future. She told me that now's the time to think about what I want to do with my life. I've decided I don't want to run anymore, that's already been established, but I don't know if I want to go into journalism or music. Maybe I could major in one and minor in the other, once I get to college.
I've been thinking a lot about taking guitar lessons. I did over the summer, but I stopped as soon as school started. I love the guitar, it's so beautiful, and there are so many different things you can do with it. I also would love to continue with singing lessons, which I also stopped when school started again. I love to sing, and what else is better to combine with guitar than a little singing, right? I might even take up dancing again, seeing as I'll have more time on my hands without all of that running taking over my life.
You know, maybe I'll post some of a book I'm trying to write on Just Sarah. There's like, 14 or 15 pages so far, and it doesn't even have a title yet, I can't think of one...
I don't even know if anyone is going to read this blog, EVER, but it doesn't hurt to try new things, right?
:)
