it's all about ME!
Today was one of my "ME"-days.
On "ME"-days, I spend the afternoon, or the evening, in the Village, because I love the Village. Before, or after, my therapy appointment (which is also in the Village), I window shop and spent time at my favorite indoor/outdoor cafe either reading a book or writing in my journal as I enjoy a peanut butter mocha or an old-fashioned bottle of Pepsi. Today a friend from school (she graduated last year) walked in to my very same cafe. It was quite a pleasure to be able to update and discuss foreign films and design. (I really need to expand my foreign film knowledge past that of La Cage Aux Folles.)
My therapy session went great. My therapist is easy to converse with, engaging, empathic, open-minded, nonjudgmental, and gives fabulous insight and advice. I hope I can continue to afford her once my student insurance expires at the end of August.
I cannot blame myself for other people's judgment/opinions of me. You either like me or you don't - that's your problem, not mine. You can gossip with your friends all you want about me analyzing everything little thing I do or say, I can't stop you. But I can thank you for making me the center of your universe.
I am a Drama Queen. I will fullheartedly and proudly admit to it. 95% of everything I do is big and over the top. The Good and the Bad. When I'm happy, it's big. When I'm angry, it's big. When I'm sad, it's big. I am learning (and it will continue) how to tame my emotions for certain situations, but I am no longer going to apologize for my personality. Nor am I going to continue this need to stand up for myself to people who claim I am a bitter and unhappy person who love to boast how they want nothing to do with me (and then read my blog everyday, wtf is that?). They can keep their narrow-minded perspectives to themselves. Like I said before, love me or hate me. Either way, for goodness sake, please do it right!
