i just felt like doing one of these. just to remind myself who charissa is again. seems like i'm thinking too much these days.. i wanna be six years old again.

so today i was walking home from sat tutor. and i was crossing the big street near birch and a car honked. i look and these three guys yell "smile!" and make a smiling motion with their hands and face. and i look at them and i don't smile. hahaha i just thought that was funny. but it's actually not.. maybe i should've smiled. instead of looking like some anti-social emo asian girl.

i realized that i'm a fairly independent person. but i'd probably break down without my mom. i hope i become like her one day.
