these are the days...

 i'm doing better. the weather is gorgeous and summer is upon the city of new york. i looked at my calendar for the rest of the summer, and it's already ridiculously busy. most exciting is my trip to tokyo in july. i will be reunited with my people. MOSHI MOSHI!

my very first childhood friend got married this weekend. when i hugged her after the wedding, she said "did you ever imagine when we were 2 and playing with my little pony that we would be here now?" it's just absolutely crazy-- and it's crazy that i am almost 26 years old. i feel like i just graduated high school, when in fact i not only graduated high school but college, grad school, and am 2 and a half years into my first job. and yet i still feel very young and learning so much in this world. time will only tell what life brings for this girl.

case in point: despite the fact that i was very proud that i did not get burnt on my face, legs, chest, and arms from the beach today, i have to go nurse a bad burn on the small of my back. way to go kid, way to go...

ahh, look at all the lonley people

i have been a funk in the past few weeks. i think it's a combination of different things. bomb scares. dr appointments. dating. job. friends. weather. money. but it all boils down to this: new york city may be the most exciting city in the world, but unless you have the right people and the right mentality, it will mean absolutely nothing. i will put this out there: i truly am happy... i am surrounded by wonderful people. but it's kind of at the point where am i as happy as i want to be? i am kind of at a cross roads, and i'm not too sure what step to take. i was supposed to be on a 5-10 year plan, but i think a wrench was thrown in. ohhhh what to do what to do. i think i need to see a therapist. or visit a krispy kreme. wait, they are all gone? therapy it is...

next entry: a happy one. i promise.
