Look back on what you've been through and rather than dwelling upon the bad, put one step forward and continue on with the good.
Sitting here, typing this, on this new year's eve, I have many thoughts which rush around in a scurry throughout my mind. There are many words to be said, and many details to be spoken; but none of which I find important. Rather, in short:
I graduated high school and became single. Best thing to ever happen to me. Completely excited about getting out and being on my own, quote unquote, I began a full time job at the hospital for the summer. I worked as a CCT (critical care tech)at the same hospital I interned second semester of my senior year in HS at, and made awesome friends and gained great colleagues. Over the summer I met a boy, boy J, and things went great and horrible with him - an emotional rollercoaster the boy is of which, with, I find serious personality problems with. But you can't change some people, and unfortunate as it may be, we just have to accept it.
I fell in love with boy J. Completely. I let my guard down and I let him destroy me. As school began and things went well with him, things quickly diminished. I became depressed and couldn't help but feel sorry myself, and I wanted everyone around me to pity me. It was the worst thing I have EVER allowed myself to do. And so I picked myself up quickly.
At the same time I began my educational career at Seton Hall Univeristy in South Orange, New Jersey. It's not the school for me, and still, on this new year's eve, I am waiting to hear of either my acceptance or denial of admission to several universities, of which I want to intend include Temple University and Drexel University in Philadelphia. I am a double major in psychology and criminal justice with a concentration in pre-medicine. Psychology, through my professor Dr. Silvestri, is a great love of mine I realized.
I gained awesome friends - both near afar, ie: Steve-o-mania and Alex, respectively - and really enjoy their talking company. I've traveled the state of New Jersey to see many a different person, and have been through several states, all of which I traveled before.
I also, just recently, gained a new boyfriend: John. That's right - no acrnomym, synonym, or funny name for him. Just John. He's amazing and makes me happy. I'm still attached and in love with boy J - but John is helping me to great through that.
In 2003 I re-opened three piercings (cartiledge and both lobes) and pierced both my tregus and my tongue. I started gauging my lobes, which today are at a 06 gauge plug, and got one tattoo. I changed my style of dress and my style of thinking. I'm much more relaxed, and enjoy the better person I see myself to be today.
Hopefully, 2004 will only bring better things and take me to better places. But where ever life takes me in the new year, it will always be my life, and lived as I wish it, and be full of me and whoever wishes to travel the roads as company.
Happy New Year!
