NO TIME

and i LOVE it... between working non-stop and TRYING to go out and have a life, I end up not having time to just relax!!! But it's cool, I got back to the way my life used to be & it gets even better:
For years, I have sat around and let people dictate to me what life should be, and what I should do with mine... long letting go of what I always wanted for my life. Lately I've began to change all that & I got back to the "dream". To me, the dream is what life is all about... you know very early on what you want for yourself, and then all of a sudden "reality" sets in for most of us, and we let the dream just fade away. We let our lives become something that we would never have imagined. I never imagined myself still living at home at 23... I imagined that I would just be getting out of school and starting my career.
So better late than never, I'm getting back to my plan. I'm a few years late, but the good thing is that I got the dream back instead of just letting it slip away forever. I refuse to be the one in my old age who says "I settled."
I now know exactly where I'm going and I'm not letting anyone side track me anymore... the first step is going to school in Cali. I got the call that I got accepted today. Thirteen years in the making, it's finally time for that dream to be my new reality. I kind of hoped that this would have happened 5 years ago instead, like I always had planned... but maybe this is the right time for me.

I just wish that everyone in life wouldn't just settle; that they wouldn't let "reality" make them feel that what they really want isn't in reach. Real life is hard, but it's bullshit to think that what you see around you in your home, on your block, wherever... is all that is out there for you.

Peace out my bitches!!! I'll see you on the West side! lol
