my day today went very well. I woke up and went to school which is always a blast. I can't help but notice on thing however.. and its how HOT san francisco is becoming! we need to make it an everyday effort to save energy and cut back on the amount of CO2 emissions we create daily. 20 years from now san francisco will be wondering what 60 degree weather was like. anyways, I ran some errands downtown and then went home. I made some mac n cheese. this was'nt just any mac n cheese however.. it was special. I use a special blend of cheese, butter, and milk to create the perfect cheesy consistency for my taste buds. I've always liked my noodles al dente so that they still have a little crunch. not too much, not too little, but just the perfect amount. then when you mix the noodles with the mouth wrenching cheese sauce you get an amazing result: MACARONI AND CHEESE! I remember being little and thinking wow I could never eat a whole box of this stuff; now I feel like one box is a snack. oh how I miss simpler times. thoughts like these go through my head on a daily basis and bring me to the realization that I am becoming an adult. as many emotions that these thoughts bring, one stands out from the rest: anxiety. I get nervous about college, living situations, and money. foster care doesn't always help with these thoughs.. it adds on if anything. this is why I do photography. it keeps me in a healthy state of mind spiritually. it revitalizes my soul and lets me continue through the daily trials and tribulations I am faced with as a soon to be adult. school, money, and life are all so stressful. but when you have sunsets and rooftops, it all becomes a little easier.
