Birthday

I was young
Then not so young
Scary either way
One more rung down that black ladder every day
One more floor down the elevator to oblivion
What fun

“I Was Born”, from i by the Magnetic Fields.

I am seventeen today.

Some new things since last year:

A different school
A boyfriend
A mildly variegated taste in music
350 photographs*
Refactored career goals
A new and improved set of friends
A link log
40 books, consumed

*Here are twelve.
