Tonight I was home alone, which, if you've been to my house, you know is a bit scary. I decided to go through some old pictures because memories are the next-best thing to having real people with me. My god, the things you learn about yourself with a few years' perspective. So here are the things I wanted to tell myself in these pictures.3-year-old Molly: your life is so good; keep enjoying it because the sun just doesn't shine that brightly when you get older. When people are older they aren't as happy because they think they've figured out life, but maybe you have it right and that's why you have that smile all the time. Be nicer to your babysitter even though she watches stupid soap operas when everyone knows that Eureka's Castle is on.6-year-old Molly: I know your brothers try to make your life miserable, and sometimes succeed. But as much as they drive you crazy now, they and your sister will really be the ones you can count on through everything. Enjoy these years together if you can, even when you fight, because all too soon you'll live hours apart from them -- hours from the only people who can really know what you came from and what your life has been, since they lived it alongside you. Sometimes having 3 siblings in a tiny house is tough, but in ten or so years you'll figure out that the payoff of that is knowing that there are three people in this world who would do anything for you.12-year-old Molly: it's ok, you really are a skinny kid. losing that much weight in seventh grade is a bad move and you'll probably stunt your growth and you already hate being in the front in every family photo. Do you really want to still be in the front when you're 18? Yeah, it's gonna suck. The butterfly clips aren't that cute and Josh Jackson is going to get all puffy and ugly - just a heads up on that one. And you're going to start swearing eventually so you may as well get off your high horse and start now.15-year-old Molly: no one likes being 15 and yeah, life could be a lot better. Stop trying to carry your whole family on your shoulders. Just focus on being a kid because you still are one : when you get to college you'll realize you missed out on things for taking life so seriously. Someone else can take some responsibility because people understand that you're still a kid, and if they don't then that's their problem. Side note: before senior year you'll see a cute shoulder length cut. Just say no, because it'll get butchered and you'll spend the better part of 2 years growing it back.17-year-old Molly: College isn't scary. College is a great freakin time. However, bad things will still happen. Just the times in between will be even better.And yeah, these were actually pretty much the thoughts that went through my mind that went through my mind during specific pictures. See, if I were all fancy and had a scanner I'd have links to the photos but ... no dice. Hey, I can only do so much.
Okay so this is what i found one time when i was looking for my blog, this was at the begining of my bloggin days. I typed into the thingamajig http://www.mollyexplainsitall.blogspot.com but it wasn't my site but at that time i wasn't sure, I thought donnie had gone into my site and written stuff for me, ahahaha and it kind of sounds like it, like the whole like short haircut, and having two brothers and a sister so huh I just thought i'd share because I thought it was funny that i forgot the whole -molly at the end of the address hahaa don you always make fun of me for that. :( oh well Oh ya, and I liked Eurekas castle, or was it alegras window? Woops i totally just put the picture of eurekas castle up at the top, told you i was computer retarded, uhh and I'm really getting addicted to putting random pictures on here. I hope it doesn't bother anyone!
