23 Years OLD

Really Random and Quick Post. Only because I haven't posted in ages.

I am now 23! yay..

I really wanted to do like a list of 23 lessons I've learned in these years. But I've learned sooooo many things this year alone it would pretty darn difficult to pick out just a few. So I'm gonna post the lessons that have been difficult for me to learn, and still have to keep myself in check and work on. I have more than the two I'm gonna list today. But these are the ones at the top of my mind right now.

a.) Sometimes good shit happens (and, yes i might have gotten this concept from a TV show). You can take life two different ways. "Boo-Hoo bad stuff keeps happening poor me", Or "damn that sucks, but I'm going to move on". This is by far the hardest lesson. 2009 Was/err I guess still a rough year. Been in some tough situations, did things that I may or may not regret, might have even gotten my heart broken just a little bit. But sometimes I just have wince at all of the time I literally wasted feeling sorry for myself. SERIOUSLY?! seriously. So anytime I catch myself falling back into the pattern of doing it again, I have to remind myself that good shit happens too. And I'd better get my attitude straight so I can properly enjoy the good shit coming my way. (does that make since?)

b.) When it comes to men, always put yourself first. It's actually a really difficult thing to do, because as females I swear we have this nurturing gene in us, but it totally helps to fight it off. (Especially since men are simply AMAZING at putting themselves first) And believe me, even if its the guy you've been quite obsessed with for months calling you texting and wanting you to do something tonight -- right now!, it's always good to say NO sometimes, even if you don't want to, even if it kills you a little bit inside to do so. Because there's nothing like the feeling of control over yourself you get when you do so.

More to come at a later date..told you it was gonna be short.
