Hello all :) I wanted to write this blog last night, but Shannon came over and I was supposed to get my math quiz done, but instead we watched Sex and the City and I fell asleep. I intend for this blog to hold a lot of cool life information, but I am not so sure that it will once I get the ball rolling.
Last week at Shannon and Kate's family dinner, we had Asian food which of course requires fortune cookies. Feeling pretty low considering it was the first time really out without him by my side around all of our friends, I needed a pick me up. I opened my fortune cookie and was pretty surprised. (Even though they are complete bullshit). My fortune read: "Although it feels like a roller coaster now, life will calm down." It pretty much hit the nail on the head and it kind of turned my mood. Honestly, since then, I have been doing a lot better and I know each day will just get easier. The thing is, with a break-up like mine, there is no room to be REALLY angry because people do change their minds...people change every day with every breath. He brought me more happiness than I could ever repay him for, but it was time to move on. This is a time for both of us to grow up as individuals and find whatever it is that will make us happy. Later in life, we may become friends again or more than that. Only time will tell and if it is meant to be, then it will be. For the time being, I am doing better and taking it day by day. Trying my very best to not look into the future, but rather today and tomorrow. After all, it has now been two weeks since the break-up and on day two, I didn't know how I was going to make it.
Last Thursday was my 22nd birthday and overall, it wasn't so bad... always room for improvement, but so thankful for the people I shared it with. That day I went out with my mom and grandma and we went to Alton to the boat and to eat lunch. Jack in the Box tacos for the win! I guess the best part about your birthday is that you don't have to buy anything for yourself. Thank you to everyone who bought me a drink or dinner or something. You wonderful people, you. OH. I cannot forget to mention that I also cut all of my hair off as well on this birthday. I am still getting used to it, but it was a good change. Especially for this summer heat crap.
Onto more exciting things! This August... I am taking a much needed vacation to ... New York City! I went in March of 2010, but it was just my grandpa and I. I had a blast with just him, but this time... SHANNON IS GOING! SHANNON IS GOING! :) AND, we are staying right in Times Square! Last time we stayed in Long Island City, which is in Queens and a good distance away from Manhattan. This time, instead of looking out my window to see far, far away Manhattan, we will be in it! I am more than excited to do hood rat things and hopefully not get stabbed on the Subway, ha ha. No, really... I don't want to be stabbed on the subway.
Well, I am going to call this blog quits, so I can attack my math quiz. Blegh.
SHANNON IS GOING!!! <3
