So, I've basically abandoned this thing for months, and months. And yet, now that I am basically starting a new chapter in my life (cliche and terrible, yes but it seemed fitting), I felt the need to update.
I'm graduated. Got that fancy degree and everything.
I went to Cincinnati for the summer at worked at the tennis tournament where I had some of the most fantastic times in my life. I mean, running around with delicious tennis players all day, ducking into the players lounge to say hello to various folks, and just generally caused trouble in the city, was not a bad way to spend my summer.
Boyfriend and I broke up. Now, I wouldn't say this is any sort of accomplishment by any means. In fact, getting out of a two year relationship is incredibly painful and I now remember why I avoided these things. But, I think I learned from it. And I think that we made an adult decision by breaking up. I'm not ready to get married. He doesn't want to hold me back from anything that I want to do in life. It sucks because I miss him all of the time, but I just have to believe that it won't hurt so bad in time. At least we parted on decent terms where we can still text every now and then and I know he will be there when/if I ever need him. And I can still talk to his family which is incredibly comforting to me. In the two years we were together, his mom was more of a mother to me than mine has been in 22 (almost 23!) years.
I was just hired by the Detroit Tigers. I am quite proud of this! Is it my dream job? No. But am I working in professional sports straight out of college? Yes. And working in major league baseball to boot! I was told by everyone that it would be nearly impossible to get into the professional sporting world, and to that I can say SUCK IT. Because I did it. And I'm going to be sweet.
So, here I am. Growing up a little bit. But I'm excited for what's coming. I'm excited to make my mark. It's going to be good.
What's new with everyone? Anything? Update me. :)
