A New Year and A New Me

Happy Belated New Year!

I have so much to be thankful for this year and one resolution that I have will be to blog more regularly and, now that the election has come and gone, more diversely. I can't believe it but I just celebrated my 3rd annual locversary! It's hard to believe that its been three years and yes I am madly in love with my SL's.

I have a lot on my plate for this year:

-I'm defending my thesis this quarter and the first thing I have to do is finish my experiments so that I can set a date with my committee. Nothing else matters until the date is set so I'll just be blogging my trials, triumphs and tribulation until then.

-I'm addicted to facebook-if I'm your friend you probably already know this.

-I'm also going to take ownership of being a better me. How will I do this? By continuing on my journey of self-love and acceptance. It started when I went to Nigeria this summer and fell in intense infatuation with someone other than my boyfriend. Within 3 weeks I was engaged and I broke up with my former boyfriend after I returned. However, as time passed I realized that I had made a huge mistake and I called it all off.

So where did that leave me? Single, again. But I'm learning a lot from my mistakes, notably that I often mistake infatuation for love and by the time it's worn off I'm stuck in a relationship that I don't want to be in but am afraid to end for fear of hurting the other person. I know, that was a long sentence! But luckily I'm learning and growing towards a path towards self love.

-This weekend I'm headed to DC for the inauguration! I'm excited but I don't have any tickets to anything! I'll prolly go to one ball, and if I do I'll send pics!

Talk to you soon!
