Feeling an Itch to Blog

POSTED ON: 2014年6月29日日曜日 @ 21:01 | 0 comments

I used to write a lot and now I hardly do anymore! 

I want to say that this year is going by so quickly that it is almost overwhelming. 

I heard that as you grow older time begins going faster..but I never noticed it until last summer.

Looking through old blogger posts, I realized that I haven't updated in 2014 except for one time! Isn't that crazy? I've had this blog since 2009...so many things have changed.

A lot has happened since the last time I updated, in fact.

  1. I got a job working at an optical company and I love it
  2. I've completed my Summer A class and did well!
  3. I started working on Saturdays, cleaning, as well
  4. I've <s>pretty much managed</s> to get over my ex-boyfriend
  5. I learned to drive stick comfortably (I really had to since my transportation is stick!)
  6. I empowered myself by going out for a drink alone in heels (and didn't need company)

Okay, that last one sounds a little goofy but the point is that I have dressed up and mingled with other people as a single woman. Even when things were at there worst, I never imagined being with another guy when I was with my ex-boyfriend.

Now I realize that I deserve so much better and there are more important things to focus on than relationships. For now. 


Some other highlights include: going out to Orlando to meet up with my friend Jacq, celebrating Father's Day with my dad and getting to spend time with my sister and my adventures with Chunnie.

I think you are now up to date since the last time I posted.

Today I kept myself really busy. I worked Saturday and went to sleep pretty early so I inevitably woke up at 4am. I went for a jog, grocery shopping and then cleaned up the house a bit.

I felt a little restless today so sometime in the evening I went over to one of our local coffee shops for some of the best coffee in the world (it's up there with Vietnamese coffee).

I have been trying to watch my figure and exercise lately so I finally made some fruit infused water.

Not only does it look good, but it was surprisingly sweet and refreshing. I added fresh mint, strawberries and lemon slices. 

This evening I have been thinking over what the next few weeks will look like before graduation.

I ordered my last few textbooks and sometime this week on my lunch break I'll need to call the school for graduation arrangements.

I'm going to start working Fridays since I'm almost finished with school so my week is going to be packed. The money is too good not to work on Saturdays and it is only for a few more weeks over the summer.

I feel busy and pretty content. This Friday is the Fourth of July and I'm not sure if I have plans exactly except for my sister coming up. My mom and I may go see a movie that weekend too.

The summer has made me incredibly reminiscent, I have to say. I think about this time last year and how in love I was with him. How happy I was to work all day and then drive to see him. 

I think I know the feeling that one of my previous boyfriends had..after we broke up he called me quite a few times before trying to explain how well he'd done for himself after we broke up.

Of course I was happy for him but my feelings had moved on. It didn't matter how much he improved himself, I wasn't interested in him romantically anymore.

Well, the busier I get and the more I move up, the more I wish that he could see how good I'm doing for myself. How happy I am and how hard I am working. I want to show how amazing I am!

That's silly isn't it? It's just seeking validation from someone whom I lost respect for months ago. Logically that all makes sense but sometimes I wonder how he is doing and want to throw in his face how well I'm doing.

Ah, I'll get over those feelings eventually. They're much better than crying all night over empty promises and blurry memories, that's for sure. I'll take it.
