o16- much that once was is lost; public entry. [06 Jun 2009|03:40am]
I've been 18 for a few months now but I've never considered myself an adult, not really. I've done stupid things, I've said even stupider things, I'm learning about myself more and more every day and I'm still coming to terms with who I am and the fact that as of 6 hours ago I am expected to be responsible for all of my actions- good or bad. For some things “Oh, she's still in high school” was an acceptable excuse, a crutch a lot of us leaned on to excuse our actions and now we don't have that.

Another thing I'm struggling to come to terms with is that my brother is currently flying somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean as we speak, this is officially the furthest we've ever been from one another and the longest we'll ever be away from one another. He and Jessie are off to Greece for two weeks and I'm going to Delaware in... oh, 4 hours. A few days after that it's Europe and by the time I get back I'll have to head to New York for orientation, settling into my apartment... learning to get around the city by subway without getting lost or falling into the tracks... I'd be lying if I said i wasn't in his room right now. Sarge (the coolest bunny you will ever meet) on my lap and my lap top on the floor beside us. I'd also be lying if I said I haven't gotten misty eyed about a dozen times today thinking about how much things are going to change.

It's kind of scary but exciting all at the same time.

We have found a strange footprint on the shores of the unknown. We have devised profound theories, one after another, to account for its origins. At last, we have succeeded in reconstructing the creature that made the footprint. And lo! It is our own. ~Sir Arthur Eddington ;; private entry visible to jamison rutherford )

facts
Ava Julianne Rutherford was born on the 16th of March, 1991 to lawyer Patrick Rutherford and socialite Marlene Rutherford in Savannah, Georgia.
The older Rutherfords, understandably, were rather busy but always found time for their kids however there were times in which a little help was needed and about a month after the twins were born they hired Carolina, an immigrant from Venezuela in her late 30s who over the years would become part of the family. She was there for Jamison and Ava's first step, first words, first teeth, the first day of school... Señora Carolina, as far as Ava is concerned, has always been a very important member of the family and blood couldn't have made them any closer.
is the epitome of a southern belle around adults- well mannered, charming, and there is never a shortage of yes ma'ams and thank you, sirs though around her peers the only difference is she relaxes a bit and isn't as uptight.
if asked what about herself she doesn't like she'd never be able to give you an answer because she's grown rather fond of all of her "perfect imperfections" as she calls them. If asked what her mother says are her flaws she'll give you a long list ranging from her bad posture to the fact that she didn't choose slightly more feminine sports... whatever they are.
She has her moments in which she is goofy. She plays video games, she makes ridiculous faces, she plays in toy stores and doesn't care who's watching... she may even dress up like a pirate just for the hell of it.
says she will do the one thing Albert Einstein couldn't do, finish his Unified Field Theory. She loves Physics and no one quite knows how that happened. Ava's not incredibly intellectual, but somehow she says she'll manage.
drives a 2008 Lexus Hybrid she got for her 17th birthday. Ava hinted, batted her lashes and pouted for several weeks building up to it and all the effort certainly paid off.
loves, loves, LOVES Amos Lee (and the fact that he writes songs about their future dysfunctional but loving relationship), The Bird and the Bee... and Lionel Ritchie.
the very first thing she did after enrolling in school was try out for the cross country and soccer teams. She's a decent long distance runner, something she does only to keep in shape for soccer and she's an even better soccer player.
Ava is a defender on the women's soccer team. She gets annoyed when she's tackled, much like everyone does and does have a habit of getting yellow carded. She figures its the only time she can actually let out a bit of aggression and not worry about being lady like.
has a jack russell puppy, named Private Michael J. Caboose - Caboose for short, which she got a week after moving to Key West.
