i want you to get to know me

I am superficial. I like things beautiful, instant, perfect. Why settle for less when you can have the best? At the surface, at least. I call myself Kaz instead of Karina just because it sounds cooler and I won't have to share my name with a dozen others. I have sacrificed a lot for the sake of superficiality in the past 20 years. Time, money, friends, to name a few. I couldn't say that they were completely worth it because anything superficial is fleeting, momentary, easily lost. Just like that.

Recently though, I realized I didn't want that. I didn't want to end up selfish, spoiled, rotten. Like a decomposing fruit, decayed to its core. For once, I wanted to feel what it was like to do what I wanted to do without anything holding me back. I wanted to be free. I wanted to just live.

And I did.

So hello world, this is Kaz Fuentes writing for her COM 170 class. Here's to hoping for a sem that actually lasts :)
