So I'm drunk.... who cares?? It only makes it super hard on me to type this accurately so what does it matter to you? Eh eh eh??? (I am backspacing alot.... alot alot alot!).
I went to Murphys tonight. It went well. I was super nervous as to what was to happen but Ryan wasn't there so it was okay... I'm not sure what to think though, quite honestly (and I am very honest, almost to a fault). I think I saw him at the end of the night though I'm not sure, I had a couple shots courtesy of the many men that fell in love with Sam, and I had been drinking for some time. I just hope I didn't make things awkward. That's not what I wanted at all. I want rainbows and sunshine and all that happiness crap for everyone, including Ryan. Especially him. He truly is a great guy, apparently just not the guy for me. And I am summoning all the good inside me to wish him true happiness, even if that means it's with someone else.
I'm trying to be a bigger person.
I want him to be happy, although I do kinda wish it was with me. But according to the wise sage Conan O'Brien, 'no one ever gets exactly what they expected'. And I am trying to live accordingly. It's way harder in practice rather than theory, much harder than you'd expect. But I'm trying- that;s gotta count for something right? Right??
I am overcoming, I am rising above. I would quote something from the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants books but my mom is sleeping and I don't want to wrestle through her books, but the quote is something like... 'She was bad at love. She loved too hard.' (Okay, okay.... I did look it up!) But that's how I feel. I have all this love in me and no where to put it really. I thought I had someone, but I guess I thought wrong. Next time I'll learn not to fall so easily. Next time I'll keep it together. Next time I probably won't fall inlove at all. That was honestly it for me. Oh well, at least I had a taste of love. Some people never even get to know what it's like. I just wish that was enough for me, I wish I didn't need anymore. But I do....
I am overcoming, I am rising above. Tomorrow is a new day with new challenges and new horizons. Maybe one of those will be for me, maybe it will be a break for me. Maybe tomorrow is the start of the rest of my life. I reallly hope it is, I want to see what's in store.
Stay fresh.

fear and loathing...
That's the book I am currently reading. Now that I am dumped I am reading more, or rather I'm reading as much as I used to before a boy consumed my life. Well, it's not so much as he consumed it as I didn't have as much free time as I do now. I have tons of it. So I've been reading. And watching alot of TV shows on DVD, like Scrubs and Seinfeld. I'm just doing really anything to keep myself busy so I don't think about the last few weeks. I'm doing better, I still have sad days and sad parts of days and apparently when I get drunk I'm super crazy, crying and laughing and then crying again. And according to some of my friends, I drink too much.
But what is too much? I mean, it's all relative. Too much to some of my friends is not enough for me. I've just been in a funk and I'm trying to get out of it. I've decided not to be cynical and to try to maintain an upbeat outlook, which is really hard for me since, oh I don't know, the man that I loved and told me that he loved me too and that we were soulmates and that he wanted to marry me changed his mind in four short days then dumped me over the phone. Okay clearly I'm not over it and I am a little bitter. Hey, I'm human! I'm trying not to be, I'm trying to find the silver fucking lining. I tell myself if we are really soulmates we'll end up together anyways and if we're not that means that there is someone out there even better for me, who will fight for me. I don't know if that helps though. It took me 22 years to find someone who I could finally love, I just worry what if it takes another 22 years for me to find someone else. I mean that's half of my life (assuming I live to like 80 or 90). And what if the next guy I love who I meet when I'm like 45, what if we only date for 6 months? Seriously?? And by then I won't be able to have children, so I'm going to be 45 years old whose longest relationship was 6 months and I've never been married and I'm barren.
Okay, okay... so I'm spinning out of control and who knows what the future may hold? I don't need to freak out that I'm going to be an old maid, it's all so far away. I need to live in the here and the now. Embrace my youth, live it up, go crazy. But I'm probably just going to stick my nose in my books and leave it there for awhile. I'd just rather forget my life and live in someone else's for a bit.

Another beer for me, please.
Well, my absolute worst fear has been realized. How am I dealing? Okay. I'm fine. Not really, at all, I feel more like devastated but it's been made terribly clear to me that there is nothing I can do to change anything. I cannot make him.... just nothing can be done. If you were to say forever, I would expect that you meant it. I meant it. Forehead kisses are forever, I thought I made that crystal clear but I guess it just didn't matter what I said. I'm just left here reminded by all those empty promises, tainted with the ones I planned the rest of my life on keeping, and just left alone. I thought I found the person who would never leave me alone, my soulmate, but I was foolishly mistaken. How duped was I? How could I ever think.... I was wrong. I loved so fully, I never imagined being so in love with someone and giving myself to someone so completely, and now I am empty. With time things will get better, or so I've heard. But I'm in love forever. I guess I'm just going to learn to love someone from afar who doesn't love me back. And right now, I feel awful. I don't want to get up or even just be alive. I wish I never met him and I wish I never felt this way ever ever ever. Time heals the heart.... but until then, I'm going to have another beer and maybe even another, until I forget my name and then I won't feel so bad. At least for right now. Tomorrow, yeah maybe tomorrow, will be better. Probably not but I can always hope.

i'm feeling a little crazy today
My mom's laptop's battery is about to die so this may be short. So I'm sitting here at my house, alone. My mom's back to working nights, Morgan and Tiffany were supposed to come over but they both bailed (at least Morgan told me she wasn't going to come over whereas Tiffany just never answered me) and Ryan won't call me back or answer my texts. I feel like dying with this sick, knotted feeling in my stomache. I'm just so tired of my life being in shambles. I know there's alot I can fix and that I haven't and that is on me. But the other stuff, the stuff with the people I care about not being here or not caring or at least not acting like they care, it makes me sick. Everyone should know by now that I can be an emotional wreck. I am an emotional wreck. Whatever I do is not enough and I am not good enough for me, for my family, for any one that I care about. I know this. I'm just tired of being reminded that every day. I want someone to tell me to have a good day in the morning or care that I was stuck behind some slow old man on the way to work so I was 3 minutes late. I want someone to care without me asking them to care. I want flowers on a random Tuesday, even if they were picked out of the ground. I want courtesy calls saying you're not coming over and just plain old fashioned honesty. I want to be needed and missed. I want to know that when I'm not there, you still need me. I want someone to do something completely for me for once. I want... too many things, and I don't deserve any of them. I get what I deserve. I don't deserve courtesy, respect, or honesty. I don't definately don't deserve special treatment or to be loved at all. I deserve nothing at all. I'm sorry this is so angsty to whoever is reading this, but after these past couple weeks I am just emotionally exhausted. No matter what happens I am the bad guy. I don't know how exactly but I know that somehow I am always feeling guilty and gravelling for attention. I am pathetic and lonely and pathetic. Did I mention pathetic? This whole entry is pathetic. I'm sorry for wasting your time.

Way overdue
So I messed up. Part of the reason I originally made this blog was to write as I traveled across Europe. I did however write in a journal so there is that written record but this one went on unused. That is not the point, the point is I haven't written in here in like 8 months so I'm going to try to write more.
Europe was life changing which totally sounds hokey but it was. I have these great friends all over the world and a different perspective on things I had never thought twice about, if that makes any sense.
So as usual, things in my life are falling apart. Before I left for Europe I totalled my car (side note: not my fault) and I'm still not back in school. I'm back to work at Penneys yet again where i get like 10 hours a week and I can't pay all my bills and my student loans. I need to step it up, I need to change. I seem to make a list of things I need to do and I always do them but still the list continues to get longer and longer with no end in sight. Its just really discouraging.
There is one thing in my life that seems to not be falling apart at the seams and that is my love life, which is something that has never been together. I have a boyfriend and have had him under my spell for a little over 4 months. I think I'm probably technically under his spell rather than hes under mine. I love him, which is frightening, I've never felt this way about anyone ever and I sure as hell have never told anyone something as intimate as this. Its so scary to lay myself out like this, completely exposed and vulnerable. We fight alot and it breaks my heart but I know that I'm here until the end and I can only hope he's on the same page as me. I think he is and I think we can work through anything as long as we're both honest, empathetic, and held accountable to each other. Which is what I think love is all about anyways.
I want to read The Late Shift which is a non fiction book about the early 90s late night wars between Leno and Letterman. It sounds super interesting. I also want to take on the JFK conspiracies and a few classic fiction novels.
I plan on cleaning my room in the near future. Is it summer yet?
....stay freshh.
