Currently listening to: "Christmas Radio" on U-Verse Music.
Just finished watching the Pacquio vs. Marquez fight. So many different opinions flying all over the Internet and none of them make any reasonable sense. So, let's just all agree to disagree. Great. Moving on.
So to update from my last post regarding my bucket list till my 25th birthday, I am happy to say I have crossed off another wish on my list and that was to see snow fall. I didn't realize it was happening till the slushy started building up on my wind shield when my friends and I attempted (key word: attempted) to go camping in Julian two weeks ago. It turned out to be an adventure. Despite the fact that we had to opt out of actually camping due to the 30 degree below my tolerance level for body warmth. All together; it was a great trip. Lots of things discussed between friends that led me to actually cross off another wish on my list- "face a fear." I won't go into detail on who or what it was about, but I have always been bad with confrontation, especially if it regarded friends or people I work closely with because it's work; its not like I can just change my status on Facebook, no. I have to live with the current situation I am given because that's what work is. But anyways, I somehow conjured enough energy and cojonas to actually say what was on my mind, nicely. That's NOT an easy thing to do for me. So what was it that I learned from this situation? Well let me share:
1. You can't promise anyone anything beyond a day at a time.
2. A true friend is one that can rebuke you in love.
3. I am my own role model; I don't have to wait for the next Mother Theresa to come along before I can make a difference.
4. Sometimes, letting people go is the best thing you can do for them AND yourself.
5. NEVER go camping in the snow.
"Clearly" I have grown up. Not bragging, just saying. But I hope that when I look back on my life, I can say I was consistent over "she was a nice person." Great people aren't remembered for that singular moment, but for the fact that they remained stedfast in the face of adversary as well as their happiness. Life is going to throw you curve balls, but as long as you can successfully complete what you set out to do, you won't be remembered with "when" you finished, but "HOW" you did.
Do well, be great, remain consistent. Promise only what you can deliver.
Night folks...
