Old things make me happy.

Today was interesting. I actually got to look through a bunch of old stuff I found in my grandmother's chest. Pretty interesting stuff, too.
I found some old watches, which was really intriguing, because one of them was pure gold. I also sifted through a bunch of old record collections. I didn't find a record player though. I know where one is though, so that's the good thing. Oh oh oh, band tees. They smell like old lady, but I'm sure I can get that right out, hopefully. Let's see... A bunch of beads, movie posters, and assorted jewelry. Fun fun fun. It's been a really chill day.

Religion blahblahblah

Religion makes up a good percentage of the average person's life. I mean, take me and my family for example. They're very close to God, and stay involved in church. I on the other hand seem to be slowly easing away from it all for reasons I can't really explain, but try to. I believe in God, and I accept Jesus as my savior, yet I just believe that my religion shouldn't make up every little thing I do. It comes in handy with morals, making the right decision at times, and other things, but I just feel as if it gets in the way of my own discovery. I'm very prosperous, and I love to ask many questions about anything I don't know the answer to. This is why I hope to go into the science field, and take over as either an engineer or physicist. I just seem to never get my mind on the same perspective of most religious people. I hate that I question myself so much on this issue. Religion always getting in the way of what I ask questions about never fails to make me angry. I love being a Christian, but I also love science. So I guess those two could possibly mix in some other world, I just haven't realized that yet. Till then, I have yet to be sure. I guess this is where the faith should probably come in, but I'm just so stubborn that it leaks from the tank sometimes.

So, me and stuff.

How lame is this? I used to get on here all the time last year but never really posted anything interesting. I got sucked into the Tumblrs, oh my. The thing that sparked me to make a new account was my boyfriend, Andrew. So cheers to that. Since no one will probably bother to read all of this, I'll try not to write a novel here. It's a blog though. So I'm only being fair when I say it has to be kind of long.
I'm Alayna! Of course. I'm a pretty chill person on occasion. I love love love writing, it's one of my small handfull of hobbies I enjoy. Song writing, poetry, short stories, etc. I take all of those to heart usually. If I like the topic, I'll write about it.
When I'm not writing, I like to spend my time either reading or sketching. People say I'm a good artist, but there's always going to be room for improvement. I'll pretty much take art requests from anyone if I know you.
I have a decent amount of friends, but only a few true ones. Maybe like 3. I don't even know yet. Half these people I'm friends with will be out of my life forever in a few years anyway. One person that I hope will be there for me even after my highschool years is a fellow by the name of Andrew. I love him. Him and maybe 2 other people, but I won't bore you with them.
So uh, yeah... That's about it. Well, that's all I really feel I should type here. If you want to know more about me, just follow along my blog. Each one will go into detail about how I feel about society, myself, and other what-nots.
