Reflections Upon The Adara


As I created this blog, I wasn't quite sure the content I would have on it. I dont think I have yet to know the answer. But as I lay here in my bed in my dorm, I contemplate a few thoughts. First, who am I? Who is Tierra? The Adara? This week in school has been very stressful. I have heavily contemplated changing schools. I say that this school doesn't "fit me." But what is the "me" that this school doesn't fit? What components of me does this school not satisfy enough or at all? Truthfully, this is something I've been asking myself most of my teenage years. Am I this shy girl that's really nice and kind? Am I someone that has little to no tolerance for anything? Am I really so superficial and high mainenance that my looks come before anything or anyone? Do I embrace my "hood" attitude or my suburban, proper self? To answer these questions, I am me. I dont fall into a category, or stereotype. Im not a statistic. You cannot group me by the way I look, dress, talk, act, live because I walk to the rhythm of my own beat and hum my own melody. I am ME!
