update on my life, recently.
I haven’t written in so long, so I figured I should update with everything that has been going on.
Last time, I do believe I said I had a new crush, but didn’t want to say too much about it because I didn’t want to get my hopes up. But.. now, we’re “seeing eachother”, so I figured I should write about it. His name is Darrell, he’s 22.. he’s sooo nice & so respectful. It’s great. We only met a couple weeks ago, but so far.. things are going great. We even decided the other night that we were officially “seeing eachother” & not seeing anybody else. But that we’re not going to date quite yet, because we both agreed that I may not be ready to jump into another relationship so soon. So hopefully things continue to go well.
I saw Bryan yesterday.. first time since Thanksgiving. We really didn’t have much to say to eachother. Kind of found it odd, we dated for 4 1/2 years & couldn’t find a thing to say. But oh well, everything happens for a reason, right? I talked to Darrell on the phone last night & told him I saw Bryan & he goes, “Oh.. was it love all over again?” & I was like, “No, definitely not.” & he goes, “Well that’s good to know.” =] I think I’ve just finally realized that things with Bryan aren’t going any where. Meeting & hanging out with Darrell has definitely helped me realize this and I’m glad, because it was about time something made me realize it. Like my mom has said, I’m pretty sure everything with Bryan is a closed-book. & for right now, I’m okay with that. I know there will come a day I’ll think about him & miss him, but for right now.. its good. Its where it should be.
Myyy weight. Since Bryan & I have broken up, I have now lost about 27 lbs. I don’t know if that’s something to be proud of or not.. I mean, I am just because I needed to lose weight; at the time I didn’t really want Bryan breaking up with me to be the reason I lost all the weight, but it worked. Mom seems a little worried, like she thinks I’m getting too skinny. But idk, I eat.. I really do, anybody can ask Crystal, I go over there every day & eat her out of food. Ha. I don’t know.
Lately, I have people calling me & texting me all the time to do something with them. It’s nice! I’m really & truly lucky that I still have friends. I seriously dropped all of them for Bryan.. & I’m really lucky they are able to push that aside & still be friends with me. Especially Kay.. because we were really close there for awhile & hen we stopped & now we’re slowly becoming really good friends again. We’re going shopping tomorrow.. I plan on just finishing up on xmas gifts.. but still, it’ll be a good time.
Well thats my life lately.. now I’m going to go jump in the shower, probably go to the tanning place to see if she has any openings.. then go over to Crystal’s.
<333
umm..
so.. lately.. hmm.
i’ve found myself a new crush, tho i don’t really want to say much about it, because idk whats going on or whats going to happen really. but we hung out friday night at jeremy & lorena’s. & like i said, i’m “crushing” on him, but i guess we’ll just see what happens. i dont want to jinx myself & i dont want to get my hopes up, even though i think i already have.. but, i’m trying not to. i just need to wait & see.. no wonder why i’m so impatient. i swear i’m always waiting for something..
thinking about this new crush of mine.. really takes my mind off of bryan. which is great, because idk, me & bryan aren’t really talking too much. but then when i do think about bryan, man do i really think. i really sit there & let it all flow out of me. its weird. idk how to describe it.
..yeah i had a lot more on my mind when i went to write this message, but i’m getting really tired, so i’ll just leave it here & go to bed.
<333
old friends.
i love getting in touch with old friends.
kay & i have been talking lately again. its great to catch up with her. we had a couple heart-to-hearts tonight. it was nice. =] we talked about her boyfriend, bryan, her roommates, soon to be ex-roommates.
then we talked about how we should road-trip or do something exciting for spring break. her, me & maybe a few others. that’d be super exciting. we didnt know where for sure we should go, but we agreed on somewhere warm. i still wouldnt mind going down to florida for spring break.. be on the beach, ahh i’d love it. but idk, last time checked, tickets during that time were $600!! dont think i can afford that, plus everything else down there. plus i doubt any of my friends could either. so we’ll see.
we are going to hang out saturday night, we dont know for sure what we’re doing yet, i dont get off til 8 & she probably wont get in town til 8, so she said she was going to come over here & hangout while i got ready. hopefully we find something to do.. like tomorrow. haha. or else idk what we’ll do. we shall see about that one too.
thats all i’ve got for this one.
wrapping up the year survey.
1st off.. i want to explain what it is that i’m doing. i found this survey & i began to put it on my original website BUT i realized it was too personal & i didn’t want too many people to see what all i had to say for the answers. so for now, i’m going to just keep it on here. hope you enjoy!

Did you do anything you never thought you’d ever do?
– no. but i went thru something i never thought i’d go through. & bryan agrees, because he even told me that he never saw the day coming that we would break up, but that he also didn’t see things getting any better with the way we were going. & maybe he’s right — they do say everything happens for a reason.
