DISCLAIMER
if for some strange reason you actually read my posts and they seem really depressing and complainy, it’s because I try to be positive, but I know that I can’t keep my feelings just bottled up inside of me so this is where I let out all my negative emotions.  I swear I’m a lot more positive in person <3
me irl
this is me
I’m learning how to work the stock market and let me just say, it’s really freaking hard, but at the same time, it’s kind of easy, and it’s a LOT of fun.  I’m doing paper trading right now, because I KNOW that I’m not ready to actually invest anything, but I’m getting there, and I’m super excited.
evermore is perfection. period.

I’m Trying Is A Real Thing
It’s been quite a while.  I never fixed More.  I definitely need to though.  It’s just not quite right.  I did however wake up at 3:00 a.m. and write a chorus to a new song which is fun.  I also passed all of my classes.  I would be more proud of myself but my grades were so low that if I don’t get all A’s next semester I will lose my scholarships and I won’t get into Stanford Law School and my mother will murder me, so that’s fun.
In other news, I created an actual blog.  I know that Tumblr is made for blogs, but idk it feels too personal.  It’s called I’m Trying. the link is: https://dallasistrying.blogspot.com    you should check it out.  I only have one post rn and it’s just explaining what my blog is about, but I’m super excited.  And I promise to actually keep up with it, unlike this Tumblr account.
I saw a tik Tok where this person created google classrooms for each Hogwarts house and I joined it.  I’m a Hufflepuff and I believe classes start on Jan. 11.  Idk what's going to happen or if I'll even be able to keep up, but I’m excited.
so I've been reworking on More because idk I think it needs a chorus.  I don’t like the way it kinda is.  Also it’s really short. I  do have the background music kind of figured out though.  Which is good
I WROTE A SONG
so my paper is due at 11:59 tonight and I’ve almost written a page, but I need 3. Butttttt on a good note, that song I was working on last night, More, is done. I WROTE AN ENTIRE SONG! I’m so proud of myself.  It’s a very depressing song, and I’m not quite sure where it came from, but I love it.  I like to think that @taylorswift would be proud of me.  I mean I don’t have a melody or anything, which is annoying, but I have the lyrics which is really good progress.  If anyone is really good at adding melodies to lyrics, hmu.  Lol maybe I should just call Elton John. I’m just kidding, I don’t think it's the type of song that he typically sings.  It’s about a girl who’s bf broke up with her and she doesn’t know how to cope.  Maybe if I can get a melody and learn how to play a piano I can use my song to get famous on TikTok and then my music will blow up and I’ll be a famous singer.  BOOM
can we just talk about the fact that I’ve never been in a relationship and yet 99% of my songs are breakup songs?
So I have a 3-page paper due tomorrow that I haven’t started, I need to start a huge project that is due Friday, I need to wake up early to shower and get ready, and I need to do all my laundry tomorrow, and instead of going to sleep on time, I decided to stay up til 2 IN THE MORNING writing a song.  To be fair, it’s coming along nicely, but STILL! I’m a little worried that the song I recently have been working song will sound a little too similar to All Too Well, but I think I’m okay.  I wrote it, then listened to All Too Well with Camber, then went back to writing it and realized it has the same vibes.  Idk if that’s good because All Too Well is my fav song, but I don’t want people to think I’m trying to copy Taylor Swift.  Also the song is one of the those songs where there isn’t a defined chorus, but it does have a kind of defined name.  I wanted the name to be obvious without being obvious, so it’s called More.  Basically what happens is that every once in a while in the song, there is a part where it starts to sound similar.  The lyrics are just slightly different.  It’s just 2 lines, but the first line says something then says “how it felt to be yours” then the second line uses however I started the first line to connect the 2 then ends with more.  Idk if that made sense, but I’m afraid if I add the lyrics, someone will think they’re genius and steal them.  But at the same time, someone could steal what I’ve already said and also, I’m pretty sure this post is proof that I came up with it so I'm just gonna say it.  One part is “even now I remember how it felt to be yours // when all I really wanted was to mean something more”.  Another one is “just when I forget how it felt to be yours // you pull me back in, then leave me wanting more”. See how they kind of tie together?  And its not like it’s an actual chorus, but it is kind of like a little way for me to say that this is my song More.  Ya know?  Also, I have no melody for this song.  After listening to All Too Well, I keep imagining my lyrics to that melody and now that I know that some of them work, I can’t make one up for myself, but I know that I want it to sound slow and wounded, but still strong I guess?  When people hear the song, I want them to hear how broken this girl is without hearing the actual lyrics, but I don’t want her to sound pathetic.  idk. I’m just gonna have to finish the lyrics then find someone who can help me add the actual music
GABBY LIKES ME!!! I really didn’t know if she did, but apparently Mackenzie told her that I’m going to KC with them this weekend, and Gabby said something along the lines of oh yay! I like Dallas. !!!  THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY
I think I’m going to be Wonder Woman for Halloween
I asked for a Nintendo switch for my b-day, but I doubt I’m going to get it.  I really want to play the Witcher and Animal Crossing on a switch thooooooo
I keep writing like, these weird 1/2 songs, but I can’t get them into entire songs and I don't know what to do
I’ve written 1 entire song, but it was the dumbest, cheesiest, most forced song I have ever heard.  It’s bad.  Really bad.  And I know it’s partially because I forced it, but I don’t know what else to do.  If it doesn't just magically enter my brain, it won’t work
RED ALERT
LEXI JUST SNAPCHATTED ME! SHE ASKED ME HOW COLLEGE IS GOING!!!!
I’LL KEEP YOU UPDATED
it’s cold and dreary out which is great because now I have an excuse to listen to my rainy day (sad) playlist
Good news: I finally bought a lamp! it’s super fancy and it’s supposed to arrive today! yay!
here’s the aforementioned tik tok
I was scrolling through tik tok and I came across one of those Tracy videos and it was a girl saying that she’s not her Tracy’s Tracy and I made a reaction to it saying I really felt that and now I’m debating over whether or not I should post it. I want to, but I know that Camber will see it and I don’t want to hurt her...
so I was crying and listening to folklore, but I’ve decided to listen to an episode of Call Her Daddy instead
