Thanks!

I've been thinking about a lot of stuff lately, mostly because my birthday is coming up and I can remember my last birthday very vividly - My mom had an appointment where she was being tested for cancer. She wasn't diagnosed that day, but I remember feeling helpless. I also remember my friends decorating the shit outta my cube<3

This all got me thinking about how different I feel now, one year later. This was a really rough year, and I did (and am still doing) a lot of things that are not of my usual character.

I just wanted everyone that I have spent time with in the past year that you made a difference in my life. Between my binge drinking, puking in my front yard, acting stupid and completly out of character, thanks for not hating me for it.

I feel like the past few years I've lived in a bubble - I don't think I ever really got to experience LIFE. It started off well in High School, but it all went downhill and I really think there was a year or 2 when I really had depression and never dealt with it. Then my high school career ended on a good note with a good relationship and a promising career in cosmetology.

Anyone who knows me, knows what came next - I quit doing hair and dumped my boyfriend. Oh yeah, and my mom also got breast cancer!!! Wow - a tad bit crazy, no?

So what I am really trying to say is since my mom was diagnosed with cancer, I have been trying to live the life I've missed out on! So if I puked on (or around) your toliet, said something ignorant or just did something crazy, please forgive me ... I am trying to live!

I'm starting to come to terms that the same situation my mom went through could very well happen to me, and I am NOT going to let life slip by me.
