Two years...

Who'd a thunk that I would be able to keep this blog going for two years? I didn't think I'd make it past two days. Yes, it's true that I have become horrible at updating - down to abuot one a month - but it's still just as comforting to have a place to vent every now and then.

Well, as for the updates, it's my birthday week. Yep. That's right. Come saturday I will be 21 years old. Ha! That's for those of you who bet I'd never make it past 18. Sometimes it's hard to believe how far I've come. Remember when you turned 16 and thought you were hot stuff. That you had reached the age of all out maturity. You had grown up and become the person you would be for the rest of your life. What a joke. Even I know at this age I have so much growing and learning left to do, and I welcome it with open arms. There is nothing more gratifying that expanding as a human being. Some people look at their birthday as another year of their life passing them by, but I tend to see it as another great year to look forward to.

This week also marks two other huge events in my life. I Love MUNdays and the opening of CLUE. I Love MUNdays promises to keep me on my toes all week at work with various events celebrating Memorial and our student faculty staff alumni and pensioners. and CLUE is well something that has been int he works for many months. You see I decided that I would take on a principle role with Deadpan just as I got a full time job. score. so now after months of rehearsal this thursday night we open for a four night run at the majestic in St. John's . Based on the popular board game this "whodunit" will feature yours truly as the lovely and "talented" Miss Scaret (read: Prosititute) . I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited, but I really think this show will be to die for (haha, lame I know)

With that in mind I also have some other things on my work plate, as well as my volunteer work and social life. Darcy and I celebrated out one year anniversary earlier this month. I never thought I was an capable of feeling the way i do about him. I know *some* people who read this blog don't like hearing about how I feel about my boyfriend. and I know you think writing these things will come back to bite me in the ass, however, you know what? Despite everything that has happened in my love life there are very few things I regret ever saying. Despite my piss poor and failed relationships when I say I love someone - I mean it. I know I've said I loved people in here before and although I may not feel that way about that person now, that doesn;t mean that at the time I honestly thought I was in love. and that's ok. Again, it's a part of leanring and growing and coming to be who we really are. So I have no problem in saying that I love Darcy with all of my heart. and if you do have issues with that it's ok, because last I checked, this was my life and not yours :) but I love you too and it's ok if we disagree.

so that's my update. A little long winded? maybe. But it's my birthday week and I'll cry if I want to . :P

Peace and Blessings!
