“You Won’t Be 17 Forever…”
Hey There Cool Kids On Tumblr,
So I know that I’ve been REALLY horrible at keeping up with this whole “blogging” thing. Stuff has just been so ridiculously crazy lately. I had my college audition for USC school of theatre this week (scary!!) which I think went really well so fingers are crossed! I find out in april! ahh! On top of that its just been ridiculous. Oh, random fun fact, but I was voted “Most Malibu” in my high schools senior polls. Apparently I won by a landslide too. Kinda confused about that seeing as how I do the independent study program at malibu high and i go to one class a day for an hour a day and i hardly interact with anyone while im there. either way, kinda cool that i was nominated and chosen as something for senior class polls! never thought that would happen! Unfortunately this isnt a catch up and post pictures blog tonight haha. This is just a “greers gonna talk forever” sort of post hahaha.
ANYWAY. the REAL reason why im writing on here is because today-february 14th, 2010- is my last day being 17. Weird. I’ve just been thinking about how much has happened this past year. It’s honestly so crazy. Especially coming back to this weekend. I know I’ve said it before but this weekend one year ago is when my life truly started. I met so many people for the first time last year on this weekend that I’m now so close with and also people that have helped me grow. Friday-February 13th, 2009-was when Jared and I were still on our way to becoming best friends. We went over to my agents house actually and had dinner with glenn (an awesome friend now) and randi (one of the best). We went to our friend devons after and hung out with awesome friends and people. Valentines day on Saturday was pretty great. My friend David had a valentines day party and everyone was there. It was the first night I met many different people. Some who had a huge impact on my life in 2009. I remember turning 17 at midnight and Sterling and Devon started singing me happy birthday really loud and obnoxiously. It was pretty comical. My actual birthday (february 15th) is the day that one of my best friends @jkaquinn and I actually BECAME best friends. One of the most epic and amazing birthdays of my life, and believe me, it was NOT like that in the beginning but it turned out amazing and we bonded over it. Oh, hey, Jessie: “Whyy arent i prettttyyyy?!?! =’(” hahahaha. great times.
My life truly started that year and I really became who I was. I’ve grown so much in this past year and it’s because of all the amazing friends that I have. They have made me who I am. All the struggles that happened (and believe me, there were quite a few) were all worth it. They’ve helped me grow and mature and become who I am today. I have grown so much closer with the Lord this year (thanks to tiffany, one of the most amazing people in my life-so blessed to have her) and I have learned to let my faith lead me and put my trust in God and that everything will happen the way it’s supposed to. God always has a plan. I have learned so much in this past year and I will always remember being 17 as a great year and a year where I truly found myself. I’ve loved every minute of it and honestly would not change any of it if I was given the chance.
Anyway, thats my little shpeal for tonight! Still so weird that on Monday I’m gonna be 18. AH! Let’s hope it’s just as good and I learn as much as I have this past year.

Oh. P.S. random little thing- I have no idea WHEN i became a 40 year old woman. I seriously hate going out now and my favorite part of the day is when I get to come back home, put on my sweats, curl up in my bed, make some tea, and read a book. Seriously, I’m not joking. Hahahaha.
