After a very long time and a number of harassments later, my busy schedule and I have decided to blog again.
As of October 4 4:29 PM, I'm supposed to be doing a hundred other things, like maybe applying to graduate schools, studying, picking up my paycheck, or eating, but I can't say I would be happier doing anything else but writing right now.
There is so much I can write, for many a series of unfortunate and very fortunate events has been thrusted upon me since I started this blog almost 3 years ago. Definitely not the prettiest of 3 years, but I can certainly say it has been a journey and growing period, and necessary to the development of ... me!
I don't think it's important to list the series of unfortunate events, but what I will say is it's been a series of hard disappointments ... and not just coming to terms with the reality of things and certain people, but actually accepting them. Talk about growing up.
But, among the disappointments and acceptance, I'd been having adventures of all kinds all around the world. Since 2009, I've been able to plant my feet on the ancient, colorful, beautiful lands of 10 different countries on 3 continents. Still irking to plant my feet on Africa and Asia.
Of course I've learned a few things along the way, in my classes, in my travels, and at home, but there have been 4 things that I've become absolutely sure of:
1. I am extremely blessed to have everything that I have in my life
2. Those of my real family and real friends are of the most important and precious people in the whole world
3. There is absolutely no place like home
4. More recently, my prince charming had been waiting for me in New Jersey all along. Go figure!
So, here I am, 21 years old, senior year at college, continuing to learn and accept, and trying to remain happy, carefree, and calm through the growing pains and rainy weather. But, I think I'm doing a pretty good job :)
