162/365. Take a Step Back.

This photo, in particular means a lot to me. Firstly, because I haven't taken a personal photo is...how long? 3 months? So much for a 365 project.

 

Secondly, because the idea has been resonating in my head for so long. Usually I make up my ideas on the spot, whereas this one I had time to think about, time to analyse, and time to know exactly what I wanted to do.

 

I'm in an incredibly transitional phase of my life, much like many of my peers right now. In college, honestly, I don't have much of a social life. I haven't made that 'bestest friend' or anyone I'm really close with. The people I spend the most time with here are from my hometown. And I have been struggling with the social aspect of college- the fact that everyone around me seems to have differing interests than myself. I know the friends I want are out there, I just have yet to find them.

Anyway... there was a period of about two weeks where I ate every meal alone, and while most of the time I enjoy being alone, it got quite lonesome. So I stopped moping and tried to be proactive about the situation. And despite some pretty heavy emotional setbacks, I feel optimistic.

 

oh, yeah...the photo.

I have an entire analyzation done in my head. I know what this photo means to me. But I'll leave that up to you to interpret on your own
