Well she wants to life her life.
Shit happens.
My new mantra?
Seems like it.
I'm okay with it, becasue it's simple yet true in form and function. A lot of shit happens all of time, and a lot of it is out of the realm of my control- but should that make me feel like less of a person? Hardly. Should that make ANYONE feel like less of a person- definitely not. Sometimes you have to just roll with the punches, and you have to remember that life isn't always going to punch you. No, sometimes it'll grab you by the collar and throw you head first into a brick wall..
Kidding. However it seems that there is always a moment of "saving grace" for every blow to the head. Maybe we need more than a saving grace, but we take what life hands us and hope that all of those moments that make us smile outwiegh the ones that leave us in a state of dispare.
I don't really know why I just wrote that, it sort of just popped into my head. Maybe it will mean something to someone. I would like that.
On to more superficial events:
Spring Break is closing in on us, and I am far too excited for the sweet release of that salty Florida air. It sounds ridiculous but I miss the frizzy mess of humid hair, the sunlight BEATING down on you from every possible angle, the sand that seems to follow you everywhere. I love that I can chare that with another one of my Chicago friends as well. For al the times I spent trying to get away, it's really not a bad place to be. It's home, you know? Chicago is home too, but Chicago is a new home- NSB saw every moment of my waking life from the time I was 3 months old and on.
To tell the God honest truth, I love Chicago SO MUCH- but I don't think it's home. I think I just found another trap. I mean if you're going to be trapped somewhere, Chicago isn't so bad. I'm afraid that if I get too settled in I'll never be able to go. I want to travel around the world, and it'll make it much hard to do that if I have an anchor strapped to my ankles.
On that note, I'm still waiting to hear back from Elle- but just in case that falls through I'm looking into abroad programs.
I need to go do that now actually.
okay, bye.
