Sobre Mi

I like TV. I like theater, but possibly because of the recognition...investigation pending. I like music. I like writing, letters especially (chances are I have an unsent letter written to you on a page in my journal). I like talking to people about things that matter and things that bother them and about life questions and about points of view and about things that interest them. I like listening to people too. I like trying to look really put together on the outside because I'm a hot mess all over the place on the inside, especially lately. I like positions where I can make a difference or inform someone. I am strong. I am funny...hilarious sometimes. I love fun. I love new things. I want to learn to play baseball and volleyball and maybe basketball, but that's kind of a cop out. I want to play Wii tennis. I want to learn about other types of music. I love jazz. I want to go to a jazz bar and sit there for hours. I want to go to Amsterdam. I want to go to Italy. I want to be more open minded about things that I didn't know I was closed off to. I want to read new books. I want to meet people with lives completely separate from mine. I want to learn from other people's damages the way I hope others can learn from mine. I want to help people, especially those who don't think or know they need it. I want to make people happy. I want to remember the way I met everyone I meet from this day on. I want to take something from every day that I can treasure always, even if it's mundane. I want to take ownership of those things. I want to take ownership of my problems and my life again. I want to believe in things greater than myself. I want to love at least one person unconditionally forever. I want that person to be as opposite from me as possible; loving the anti-Brenna would be the greatest accomplishment my heart could achieve. I have the capacity for it, I know it. I am damaged, a victim. More importantly, I am a survivor. I want to reclaim that as a part of my life. I want to take care of myself. Most importantly: I can.
