Friends, Unicorns, and the Wooly Mammoth

This week has been eventful to say the least!

I got a new job!! Working at a nursing home, but my hours aren't guaranteed so I don't really know how often I'll be working. But still, it's exciting. I have a lot of paper work to fill out before I can actually start. And I get to be FINGERPRINTED! Just like a real criminal!

I've been catching up with an old friend, Brooke; I forgot how much fun we had together. I would have to say she's probably one of my best friends. That’s one thing I never saw coming!

I've been losing friends too I guess. But I really do think it's for the better. If a friendship stresses you out to the point of crying [all the time], it's not worth it.

Recently I've been looking back on my past [sometimes a good thing, sometimes not]. I have changed so much! In the past year; I've made a lot of changes in my life; none of which I regret. That’s a huge thing in itself. I've found what’s important to me, and who cares about me the most. Yes, it may have taken a brain surgery, girlfriend, getting my tonsils out and losing some [a lot] friendships. But it was completely worth it. I am proud of who I've become. Even five years ago, holy cow, I was a complete bitch. What an understatement. There were rough times to contribute to how I was, but I'm so glad that stage is over! I'm trying so hard every day to make the most of each breath I take. Self-improvement is the best decision I made.

Some other things... I've been trying to make impossible relationships, work. It's frustrating to no end. And it hurts me all the time. So I've temporarily given up. --- I hate saying that you can't change someone, I really, really do. But sometimes you need to know if what you're going through will be worth it in the end. Sometimes yes. This time, no.

You don't need to save the world. One person is all it takes to start a chain reaction.
