The title says it.
This afternoon, I went out with my little brother (I owed him lunch and we don't spend enough time together) to a mall in the city. What did I do? I did whatever I felt like. I feel so free now

I "shopped" for the first time. Not just for one specific thing that I knew all about and wanted, like a video game, but I bought actual clothing accessories.

It felt great, and I just felt like sharing this with all my friends here at EC.

Another awesome thing I have to say: For the first time in two years, I feel like going back to school. I had a nervous breakdown 2 weeks into Grade 10, and now I've decided to go back.

So anybody else felt like this before? I guess this was the first time in forever that I got to just be myself.

That's pretty awesome! Glad you have decided to go back to school. Keep being yourself.

It's a great feeling when you can just be yourself without any "acting". Well done and good luck with your education.

You sound like an awesome older brother.
Always good to hear that someone had a good day.
