Maine
maine was perfect. i went up last thursday with steve and his family. steve's cabin is right on the lake so i basically went swimming everyday, tanning on the dock/floats when it was nice (which was most of the time), played croquet-i'm so addicted to it now!, tubing and water skiing!! i was so proud of myself, because i had never water skiied before and the boat actually pulled me right up, although when i fell i got the biggest wedgy ever :( haha...we (meaning me, steve, dan, and lex aka alex aka dan's girlfriend) played catchphrase, which was new to me and lex, but was also very entertaining when played at 12-ish, 1-ish am... it was just so awesome, couldn't have asked for a better time with my baby. steve also bought me a ring and two toe rings , they're so pretty :)maine was just what i needed, and amazingly enough, when you think you've gotten the closest you could possibly be to a person, you fall in love again, butterflies and all, and become a little bit closer through the simple and beautiful things in life, like waking up next to each other or marvelling at the sunset from a canoe in the middle of the lake..."it feels so amazing, to hold everything you've ever wanted, in your arms"...
i really haven't seen anyone or talked to anyone lately, so hopefully everyone had a good fourth of july weekend
tomorrow i start pilates up again, i'm so pumped, i can't stand not working out hardcore all the time, i miss dance so much, but pilates makes me super human heh heh, now that i'm back from vaca, i can hit up the gym non-stop, makes me feel so good
i also have a closing though..although someone may be older than you and will tell you that they have more experience and this is the way things are blah blah, don't always believe them. i've learned from mistakes i've made in the past, which has taught me not to be so naive and has sharpened my abilites to read people and their motives, but i've also decided that i should trust what i feel is right. just because someone tells you that they know better about how the world works, in particular guys, doesn't mean they really do. for instance my boss. he's a nice guy and i respect him a lot, but he'll give me advice on how things are in the world, especially guys, etc. and most of the time, his theories or explanations prove to vaildate themselves, but in reality his perspectives on life are seen through a different lens than my own. it's good to take the advice in, but he's not 100% right about everything, because people aren't as shallow as he says they are, maybe he is, but i like to have a little more faith in human kind and would like to believe that i posess a greater depth than the average shmoe.
