Articles of an Adolescent

This short film is about my childhood diaries and the entries I wrote when I felt I needed to state my mind. I talk about friendships, family trauma, crushes, and school in these entries. I document the years with self-narrated entries and photos from my first camera. I go through the years expressing my feelings and updating no one, in particular. I created this project to help myself connect with who I was as a kid in hopes of understanding certain things about myself. I also created this journalistic video to show others that everyone has felt lonely, unpopular, ugly, or angry at times in hopes that others to relate. Growing up is hard, but the stories show that you weren't the only one who had these feelings at some point.
