Long time no post, right? C:
I’ve been awfully busy lately with school, work, and life in general. I’ve also been doing a lot of growing and appreciating myself more. I’m so thankful for everything, for everyone I know. Right now I’m popping Jones’ soda carbonated candies in my mouth, typing on Evee (who’s come down with some type of disease) at the Hibachi in Albany while Ms Terri, Jamie and Brett talk smack about the crazies that have worked here. Austin is in his office plotting new things for his new restaurant. I feel like a helpless mutual friend who is sitting in the same room as my two close friends who just broke up with each other after 4 years of seemingly happiness. Austin sat in one corner, and Ms Terri sat behind the counter and they both didn’t say a word, but I waved to both of them because they both have been my boss. Its slightly silly seeing this from an outsider’s perspective. I don’t know if Austin’s business will go so great, seeing how every BBQ restaurant to ever open in Albany closed… but I’m hoping for the best for him. Naturally I’ll come visit him, and wish him the best of luck. But I’m on team Hibachi.

Haha, I wrote that on one of my papers for a class… I’m a horrible student. (:
I’ve been reading this book called Why Men Love Bitches by Sherry Argov that is terribly true. It takes on the same points The authors of Its called a Breakup because its Broken and He’s Just Not That Into You. My good friend Erin recommended them for a good laugh and some readjustments I could work on for myself. i.e., focus on the relationship with myself before even considering one with a *gasp* boy! And also, hellooooo!? I’m a SUPERFOX! Another thing, stop worrying over whether a boy likes me in that way or not. Who cares? I don’t! This book, however, keeps contradicting itself. It says to stand your ground and don’t let a man control you, then it says to give him the power and you’ll gain leverage. Huh? What? So I can’t let a man control me or seem too needy… but somehow I’m supposed to give a guy power and make him feel important?
That sounds like bullshit. Why should I lower myself and pretend I’m some helpless, defenseless damsel in distress? And why do that to please a man? I think it is absurd. I’ll do what I want, take care of myself, and if a guy wants to tag along then so be it! He’ll have fun, that’s guaranteed… but I am not going to go out of my way to make him feel like he has the power.
On a lighter note, Erin, Katie and I went to go see the movie He’s Just Not That Into You. It was really good, but that movie kind of contradicted itself too. It kept saying, “Hey! Crazy lady! Here are the obvious clues that a guy just isn’t THAT into you… So stop making up excuses!” And it gave you rules, then it said “Oh… But there ARE exceptions.” … Wait, what? And in the end, everyone was happy, because let’s face it… Everyone always has a “happily ever after” ending. *note my sarcasm*
It also told us what every guy was like, which doesn’t make sense. There is a handful of guys out there that I’m sure aren’t that bad, but in fact, are really great! So who are they to say they ALL act like that? I don’t know. I was terribly confused.
But I really did enjoy that movie. It was cute.
Anyways, not much going on in my life right now besides me working constantly, and when I’m not at work I’m at school. I think I’m going to visit Christy the beginning of March which I’m totally excited about. I miss her.
Anyways, I’m off. I still have an hour to kill before I have to be at the dentist and so I’m going to start reading… or studying. (:
Love, me
i miss you too lovely and i canNOT wait to see you!! (: i'm glad you're discovering and learning so much about yourself, i'm trying to take a leaf out of your novel and be more optomistic and happy!!
