Just Peachy

I Can Explain Myself

           I'll introduce myself, I'm Kayleigh, I'm twenty years old and I am a Junior,  my major is justice studies minoring in sociology, and I have no idea what I am doing with my life. I love to dance by myself and perform lip sync battles against myself in the shower. I have the most adorable cat and I love him more than green bean casserole (which is my absolute, can't live without it, favorite Thanksgiving dish). Anyways, a  good physical description of what I look like is, big hair, 5'4-ish, minor athletic build, dry skin, and probably some weird annoyed expression on my face...think of Mia Thermopolis from The Princess Diaries, (before she became the princess of Genovia and had a fantastic make-over) there it is: me. I am also a big sister of two little brilliant and talented younger sisters, it's hard trying to keep up with them. Eliza, the youngest, is an artist, she paints like she's been in art school all her life and she's only fifteen. Alex, the middle child, has all the brains Einstein had and then some and she's only seventeen. Growing up it was always who could one-up each other... I'm twenty years old now, I'm over it, sorry mom and dad, I don't speak two languages like Alex and Eliza.  I really do love my family, and I think I love them even more now that I'm 1,200 miles away. When I decided to move down to Pheonix, Arizona, I thought that I would be fine and I wouldn't miss a single person from my small snowy town, I was wrong. My best friend and I have been going strong for 13 years, there is no such thing as too much Cheetah Girls or Highschool Musical song outbreaks. I miss her so much, even though we talk on the phone constantly and reminisce on those Cheetah Girls sleepovers. In some way, talking about those moments or hearing about what's going on at home makes me feel closer to home. I left a lot of good friends when I moved and even though it was just for college it was a step towards entering adulthood and I wasn't prepared at all. Oh, and I'm single which leaves room for so much good writing material. 

       "Just Peachy" is an expression I use when I don't know how to tell people that I'm in denial of how badly my life's events have sucked. I'm in college and I live on a campus with twenty thousand boys and girls who are trying to figure out life...It's like puberty 2.0. Hormones are everywhere and on everyone, tinder is a higher priority than school and eating a whole family size bag of chips while trying to look skinny at the pool is a challenge, so, college life is fantastic, or better yet, it's just peachy. 

One More Thing: These accounts that I'm writing about, they aren't fictional, the names are changed for privacy reasons but other than that, welcome to my online diary.
