So, I was thinking where I am at this point in my life. As most 23 year olds, I have more of an idea of who I am as a person. I am at one of the best points of my life. But I was wondering why I think that. So let's just look at life through my perspective for a moment.
Exhibit A.) I am living at home at 23 and out of school. I have one of the most interesting families in the world and I love them dearly but... I'm a 23 y/o graduate. However, I'm totally rocking living at home right now.
Exhibit B.) I have no "real" job. I'm working a minimum wage job. However, it's motivating me to move my ass. And it's a job! Yay, go me.... :] It really wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to wear a costume. In my own clothes, I'd rock it.
Exhibit C.) I am single. I know, no fabulous independent woman should ever say that to people past her besties. But I'm not gonna lie, it's exhausting. And the thing is, I'm not really meeting people either. But I refuse to fall back into old habits just because I'm lonely nor date someone just for the time being. I'm not trying to be uppity, I just have never been able to do that.
So, alone I sit, at my parent's house in my P.Js about to go to work tomorrow at my lame job blogging about it.
I've become one of those peoples....
AHHH.
Ok, enough self-pitying. Life goes on, the moon will keep brightening our lives and the sun will still warm our souls.
I had a really interesting conversation with Jillian the other day under the clouds. We were talking about where we thought we'd be at this point in our lives. And it was pretty funny because none of those high in the pie dreams came true for me. I did not travel the universe. I'm not a wildly famous writer. I am not fabulously wealthy. I'm not married.. Don't have children... Don't have a grown-up job. Nor, do I have any tattoos.. Yet. (soon, p.s- my mama is thrilled) But, at the risk of being cheesy- I am happy. I could not be happier with my life.
But fear not, I'll get what I want eventually and I sure am going to enjoy my time getting there.I hope everyone who reads this enjoys it. Which is probably no one except my Nisey. My own mother doesn't read, God love her.
Have a nice evening and enjoy our gloomy "seattle" weather. I am. It's fun for a change.
