I have to admit, an unrequited love is so much better than a real one. I mean, it’s perfect…as long as something is never even started, you never have to worry about it ending. It has endless potential.

Boring people don't know they are boring. Please avoid the following topics which are derived from French etiquette. In most cases- no one cares.

1. Menstruation

2. Diets

3. Aches and Pains

4. How you Slept

5. Dreams

6. How you got to a destination (what roads you took, traffic...)

7. Weather (personally added to this list)

Is it cool if I go a month without talking to anyone? I mean anyone and everyone. No offense, but none of you appeal to me anymore

Can someone please tell me

What the actual kcuf am I doing with my life?

I'm wearing a black skirt white top and a scarf this morning 

"Ma, do I look good today? I don't look like an air hostess do I?"

"You don't look that good"

Compliments

I was on the elevator at work with an elder gentleman who complimented my shoes. He has wonderful taste.

The company you keep

One thing for the past summers I dreaded was this "fact" that I do not have a friend at home to do things I enjoy with. For example, try new restaurants or attend local events. Besides going out to the same old downtown and the same old mall (which I have been for over ten years) with my friends who typically enjoy these outings only, I have always wanted to try new things. These new things however, would not appeal to my friends, and I've known my friends for ages to know their taste.

Well since I've returned from Raleigh mid May, I have found that person who wants to do the things I do, without me requesting it. However, it took me a few days ago to realize it.

My brother has been the person I share many things (much more than genetics and parents) with. From taste in music to hobbies, I realized he is all I need.

For the past few weeks, we have been religiously hitting the gym, sometimes learning from each other. "You should drink some protein" he advises and makes me a shake before his. "Here are easier ways to hold a plank" I tell him, because 1 minute of plank is an eternity of torture.

He had just mentioned how he wants to visit a few museums, which has been a point on my "to-do" list since last summer! I hope we can cross it off soon.

I am just grateful to have an amazing brother and I have thoroughly enjoyed our time together, despite our fights and frustrations.

Thank the heavens I'm finally (unofficially) hired. At last, my hard work and persistence has been acknowledged!

My Best Friend's Wedding

My lovely love, Laura, is getting married this Saturday! I am so happy for her and Jean, and he makes her so happy. It is interesting how I have seen how much their relationship grow over the past years. I have seen them since they were talking online to their first few dates. I've seen them overcome their arguments, flaws, and other obstacles. As an onlooker, I've seen how despite the negatives, like magnets, they have always came back for each other.

I am honored to be a bridesmaid for the beautiful Laura. I wish them the happiest life together!

Thoughts

Do people miss me like I miss them?

I was going through messages from far as 6 years ago, and I felt a sudden sadness. The people I used to communicate with constantly, couldn't see a life without, are actually gone. That connection we had, friendship or even a fling, is meaningless and gone and left unremembered. But now that I remember, it is sad that I am the only one who acknowledges this 'ghost'.

If people miss me like I miss them, why haven't they told me?

I have successfully made an effort to contact those that have left a mark on me. Minor or major, I wrote to say 'hello, hope you're well and alive. Just want you to remember that this girl misses you and wonders if you miss her too."

To those who are still alive and with me currently, I cherish you and care about you. I fear our relationship someday will too be a ghost. But don't worry, I will try and prevent that.

Graduation!

I have graduated and am so pleased to say that my graduation day was one of my favorite days in my life. It was filled with only the people I love and cherish! It was such a fun and emotional day, I am so glad it went well :)

Post grad life is something I am constantly worrying about, but over the past few days I have realized what an amazing support system I have! From my parents to friends to professors, each one is by my side more than happy to assist me through this unknown journey! Shout out to Neerali for being my rock for the past few weeks, always finding something to uplift me!

I am just sitting waiting wishing for a few more weeks and then will take on life after I have a break, wish me luck!

A Must Need

http://jamesrusselllingerfelt.wordpress.com/2013/04/25/date-a-boy-who-travels/

How can you ever be satisfied with yourself?

Been knocked down four times this year and I don't think I can get up for the fifth 

How can you go from being the most happiest human to the most discouraged and hopeless one?

Lost all my hopes and dreams; I am not in a good place right now.
