Birthday at the end of the week.
21 years. Wow. I've changed so much. And its funny to think about my life so far. I've made so many mistakes, but also so many good choices. I've met so many people, some good, mostly bad, I've learned lots of new things, I know I'm alot smarter than I was a two years ago.
It makes me happy to know that I've found my path, and I'm doing a good job at staying on it. It took me awhile, but damn it feels good to be here. I know exactly what I want and now I know what I have to do to get it. I'm not going to let myself get distracted by anyones bullshit anymore. I live for me.
Last night I was driving to Ryans and while stopped at a red light on Regent St, I realized that I'm finally happy and I'm exactly where I want to be. And no one is going to stop me now, because up until this point I've been accommodating all the shit that has come my way. And I'm not going to do that anymore, Teresa is getting what she wants.
I'm lucky to have a love in my life that challenges me everyday to become a better person and brings out the best in me. I'm very lucky he's also my best friend and I'm in love with him and our friendship. I'm blessed to have such wonderful friends that I can actually trust and count on, and everywhere I turn I see someone I love.
Leaving Milwaukee was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've really found myself and learned alot about my life. I no longer hold onto that bracelet, its long gone by now. You make your own love and hope.

And thats what I'm doing.
