Where I haven't gone since college. I've struck out on my own; completely. That's right, folks...I moved into my very own, single bedroom apartment!! And it's much closer to work. I love it. No one else but me to blame for a mess, no one to tell me what I should/shouldn't do. No one to distract me from what I need to do. Also, I have the internet again!!! I can't wait to be able to do what I want when I want.
And the best part about this apartment? The BF is moving in after he graduates :-) I know, it's a big step, but I think that it's going to be amazing. Because I know this is going to work. I can feel it in my gut, and more importantly? In my heart. We had a huge fight this weekend (like he got out of bed and slept on the couch and didn't talk to me at all for almost an hour after we got up the next day...and we never really completely resolved who 'won' the argument, but I think we both got our points across to the other person. And most importantly? At the end of the day, we both know that we still love eachother. Nothing can get in the way of that fact; not even our (Sometimes way too big...) personalities.
Anywho...no more mushy rambling. On to some other kind of rambling...haha
I started watching OTH again...kind of addicted; I forgot how powerful some of those episodes are. They deal with a lot of 'uncomfortable' issues. Things that people don't want to think about let alone deal with: teenage pregnancy, abandonment, betrayal, forbidden love, jilted love, back-stapping...and that's just 2/3 of the way through the first season of, what, 9?? Insanity. Oh, and the guys aren't anything to sneeze at either....I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm grateful for the life I have lived and the oportunities that I have had. I haven't really had to struggle in the traditional sense of the word; sure I've had my difficult times, and my emotional difficulties, my trials and the times where I didn't know what was going to happen next, but I always had friends and family to back me up. And back me up, they have. I wouldn't BE here rambling to you guys (if you're still out there, that is, considering how long it has been since I did this...) if it weren't for these friends.
And I would LOVE to tell each and every one of you (my best friends, and my readers) thank you SO much for being a part of my life. However small of a part you are playing, or how big, I appreciate each and every one of you. Nothing would be where it is right now if it weren't for everything that happened before now. Everything happens for a reason and I'm glad for the life I'm living.
Now, enough of the emotional, gushy "I love you guysssssss!!!" bs. It's time to be productive; lots of things to do, time to sleep, and people to miss... *I love you, Baby*
Until next time, make sure those you care about know how you feel, keep your hearts open to them and make good choices!
