Year: 2007

  • Pickin’ Myself Up

    Okay, I wallowed.  Just for a brief moment and then I stopped.  It’s gotten easier for me to stop feeling sorry for myself and actually do something about whatever is bugging me.  In that way, I have changed the most. After facing the harsh reality of my current state of existence, I reassesed by life…

  • “Help, I have done it again…”

    I have been having a hard time lately with the way I see myself.  Somehow, I am back to where I started in regards to my self-esteem.  I know that it shouldn’t matter how much I weigh or what I look like because I am a good person.  I was beginning to believe that.  But…

  • My Unusual Talent

    I have an uncanny ability to make a bad situation worse.  It may be something in my D.N.A. or something I cultivated over time, but I always manage to screw up something. Maybe it’s masochism.  I wouldn’t put it past myself. I became engaged in something because I thought it was fun.  Now, it’s not…

  • Happy Half-Birthday to Me

Starting with a renewed dedication to losing weight by eating healthy and exercising.  And with…

  • Nothing Tastes as Good

  • Do Not Leave Unattended

    I am a fan of retail therapy. The excitement surrounding new things is how I get high in life. And one of the perks of having my job is that I do not necessarily have to worry about how much I spend on things. [This will completely change once I am in law school, of…

  • Finding Some Peace

    For the last couple of weeks, I began to question what I was going to do with my life. Being in my early 20s, I know that I am prone to being impatient. I became frustrated because I felt that I was stuck and could not see a way out. During my second year of…

  • Another Journey

    I have been having a crisis of (Internet) identity lately. At some point in the last year, I stopped writing for myself–to get my thoughts out–and started writing for the approval of others. Maybe this is why my brain seems to be jumbled. I haven’t allocated enough time to think things through and over-analyze (as…
