Must Have Done Something Right

I have the greatest family, friends, and last but not least greatest boyfriend ever! Tonight I got to experience something I never thought I would, and that is seeing one of my favorite bands in concert. Well, it was a little bit of a concert but still I got to see Relient K LIVE!

Austin, Amy, David...

Thanks so much for a wonderful night! It was fun to be able to check that one off my list with you guys!

Me and Amy with Relient K!

Look it's Relient K!

Tomorrow... well today for you readers

I get to cross off yet another 'to-do' off my list!

SO EXCITED!

RK here I come!

Here Comes Goodbye

I believe everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so that you can appreciate them better when they are right. You believe lies so that you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself. And sometimes good things fall apart so that better things can fall together. — Marilyn Monroe

Dearest Marilyn,

Truer words have never been spoken. It wasn't until earlier this week that I was able to understand those words for what they really meant. Life has been crazy, and while I am sad at the loss I had this week I am excited about the things the future holds for me.

You see, this past week I learned that a friend I made years ago is not the same person that I thought she was. Then again, maybe I am not the same person either and this was just our time to finally grow apart. It's sad though because her life is going to change dramatically in the next few months and while I would have loved to be there and be a part of it that will not be the case anymore. The friendship wasn't easy, but then again all relationships that are worth it you have to fight for sometimes. This just makes me realize that the times we had when things were right were amazing. Even though most people didn't understand why I would want to stay, I knew why I was and that was all that mattered. I learned that no one really knows who I am except for myself and people can say all they want, but I trust myself and those that are the closest to me. Again, that is all that counts. We had something special, that I don't question. Life is a roller coaster with it's ups and downs, but it's knowing when you get off that roller coaster that matters. And when you do get off, you just might find exactly what you were looking for all along.

Thanks for your words of wisdom Marilyn, I really needed them tonight.

Love,

Me

I'm trying

To remain calm and rational.

Its much harder than I thought.
