Eloise and Caela had looked at different hairstyles for quite a few hours and by the time they had found a few interesting styles, it had been way past the time to go to bed. The little elf had thought about change a lot since then. Changing her hair. Changing her…goals in life too. But…perhaps she didn’t have to really worry about changing that yet. It didn’t matter if she changed her mind on what she wanted to do when she was older…she had time, and perhaps that was the most important thing to have. When you had time you could change your mind over and over…and then still go back and fix whatever you didn’t like about yourself and your choices…

This wasn’t the time to ‘settle down’ and plan out your life…this was the time to live.

By the time Eloise realized that, she honestly felt better about everything. Of course she could still have her dream about being the very best singer in the whole world ever, but that didn’t have to be all that she had. Even if it didn’t end up being what she finally ended up doing, she would always have singing. It would always be a part of her…but it wouldn’t define her. Wouldn’t rule every little part of her…it would just be one aspect of Eloise. Eloise the amazing Elf.

The Elf who tried everything…didn’t have to like everything, but tried everything at the very least.

It would start with getting her hair done…then perhaps a new wardrobe…and when she got moved up a little and was able to take more classes…classes that she could choose…they wouldn’t all be music classes this time. She was going to try new things. Different things. Fun things and things that were perhaps not as fun…but. She was excited.

…Though, she wasn’t really excited about more difficult classes. If she could go to school and just learn what she wanted to learn, that would be a completely different story, but…alas. She was still young and couldn’t yet decide what she wanted to learn…but perhaps that reason was because of wanting everyone to not just…

…Oh.

So pretty much this whole time everything was about trying new things, and she had just been stubborn and didn’t want to see it. That’s why school made you take classes you didn’t want to take, read books that you didn’t want to read and make you meet people and interact with those that you might not really want to meet or interact with…it was so you grew as a person…something she was fully starting to understand…and while it wasn’t the best of things to learn, it made her happy to know that she had indeed learned it, at the very least.

With a sigh, the Elf made her way to her bed and flopped down, face first in the pillow. Tomorrow was going to be a new day, and the start of something amazing. She didn’t know quite what was going to start…but she knew it was going to be…

Different.
