Remember that one time...

when i went to our college town for the weekend and got really drunk and sick on the 4th of July. No? Oh well Unfortunately i do. well most of it anyways :/ . However, besides all that ridiculousness I did have a great time on my mini vacation. I got to see a lot of my friends excluding Zoe and Jess :( . i got some time away, saw an amazing fire works show and most importantly used a 3 and 1/2 hours drive each way on my own to really think and reflect on my life. i realized a lot of stuff that my brain has been trying to hide from me. sneaky sneaky. and it gave me some great insight. 1. i really hate being out of control. 2. my body is my temple and i need to get back in shape AND stop putting junk into it. cuz this weekend equaled junk food and alcohol festival. Also, dancing was and is a majorly important part of my life and i know i won't be happy unless i do it more often. 3. i have issues with my family that need to be discussed.


So, basically I got home and my dad, mom, sister, and i had a HUGE family discussion. which pretty much equals us crying histerically, minus my dad of course, at the dinner table. we got a lot out. all of us. and we got a lot off of our chests. In the end it turned out to be great and really freeing. We're working on our issues and things have started to change. For instance, today I spent the day with my mom, she had the day off work. we played "scene it" because we are both movie lovers and then we went to publix and she helped me pick some healthy foods for the week. Tonight my dad is taking us all out to see toy story 3, even my illusive sister is coming. I'm actually excited about it. I think this summer can only get better. I talked to Zoe and she suggested that I do more things with my time. So this week I'm going to look for more things to add to my spinster catalog. lol any suggestions are welcome and appreciated!


This "summer of love" is actually turning out to live up to its name. Just not in the way that i expected, maybe not the way any of us had expected. but there's no doubt that love is here. <3
