Wow girl.
You have really grown and expanded your life this year to reach out to more corners of the world. You are on the verge of many things. And things will unfold perfectly, as they should, just you wait and see.
You are a math loving rock musician.
Since your last birthday you released two albums, “Conveyor” and “Feet Disguised as People.” You have written songs for a local theater production. And started a rock band. It's really funny to me that you said this morning, "I thought by age seventeen I would have done more with my life."
Hello???!!
And in this last year you found Kai, your math tutor that you work with for fun, for hours every weekend. You are researching binary star formations with two highly respected astronomers. After moving to a new place, you started in the fall in a huge new high school and took the transition in stride. You love school for the most part, because you love learning! You are taking challenging classes and getting good grades -- physics, math, theater, creative writing, college nanotechnology. And you have made lots of new friends in a short period of time.
People love you. You are unique, funny, sweet, positive, interesting and loving. You have a brilliant mind, and you see life through poetry, through mathematical formulas, through logic, and through magic. What a combination.
So when you say, "I thought by age seventeen I would have done more with my life," to me it's a testament to your inner drive. I can't wait to see where that takes you.
