Moving Forward
Wow, it's been more than a year since I wrote my last entry. It's funny how reading my older entries truly made me realized how much I've grown. Let me just give you guys (my non-existent readers) an update of my life. It's been a crazy rollercoaster ride for me this past year. I've sent my dad to jail, moved out of my house, moved back in, got promoted to a full time job, and experienced a bath house for the first time among other things. It's really a lot take in so I'm not going to bother jotting down every last intricate detail of my crazy life. Instead, I want to take time to truly reminisce my growth emotionally.
It just goes to show you how I haven't been all that connected with my emotions in the last year because I haven't written an entry in a while. I usually only resort to my ever emotive style of writing when I'm not in a good mood. I guess I can say that alcohol has helped me drown my sorrows and the thought of partying every day dilutes my negative thoughts. I know I have to face them eventually and writing this down makes it seem like I'm tackling this monster head on with no regrets.
Ugh! The last thing I wanted to do was write about romance but once again that is the heated topic of my life for now. I thought I finally found a guy worth dating after searching high and low but of course once again I was so wrong. I thought that when I outgrew my high school persona that I would stop getting the "friend card". Well apparently, what would my life be without that damn card? I'm sick of it but as I'm typing this and after reading my older posts I realized that this could go on for a while so I might as well take advantage of it and make a ton of friends! All jokes aside, I'm almost ready to give up on romance but part of me knows that I deserve better. If this was five years ago, I would've wallowed in my own pitiful existence but this isn't 2006 anymore. It's about damn time I grabbed the steering wheel and crash into the crowd. Well, don't take that literally. It's really just about moving forward. It's absolutely true that there are plenty of fishes in the sea (and also some mermaids). I hope that I'd find that person someday. I'm not going to rush it because quite frankly that's too stressful and things just come unexpectedly. Romance should never be about the ideal but about the unlikely. From now on, I'm just going to take things as they come with no expectations. I feel like it would just be healthier for everybody involved.
As much as I'd love to really write up a novel, I'm getting really sleepy coupled with the fact that I have to work early tomorrow, so I will leave this for now and hopefully moving forward I'd be able to write down my thoughts a bit more regularly. If there's anything I learned in this last year, it would be the power of reminiscing.
