A long time ago I decided my life as a regular early twenty something year old wasn't enough. I decided that my life had to be something more than it was or ever was going to be being a "normal" person in society. I hated the fact that my head wouldn't shut up and I started drinking and partying to lessen the noise. I can't say that I regret everything but it definitely made me even more behind in my plans from the start. I am always in an argument with myself over everything. Should I be in my relationship? Should I quit my job because I know I can do something else? Should I be a recluse and keep to myself so that I can accomplish my educational goals? I try a lot to convince myself that my life experiences are more education than a degree, that my friends are more important what job I work and that my relationships are the reasons I know what I know about love. I can't say that I regret any of my decisions, but always wonder if I made the right ones. I wouldn't trade my friends for the world but at the same time I would give anything to experience even more in the world of careers and ambitions I set for myself. Why do I think it's too late? I don't know. It's another argument. Can I afford to waste another year of life trying "things" to make my life feel better to myself. At times I think that I am a huge weirdo and no one else thinks about these things, but I know that some of you out there go through some of the same arguments in your head.
This blog is about my life as a woman, a friend, a daughter, a lover, a love adviser, a working person in society, a politician and finally a writer. I write about the funny times that have me peeing in my pants and the hard times that make us all who we are today. Either way, they are all arguably life changing moments.

Yesterday's Feelings
